The Reds missed the chance to return to the top of the Premier League after a dramatic game on Sunday (07.04.24) that saw them spurn a number of golden opportunities but Klopp thinks that a point at the home of their great rivals could be pivotal in the final reckoning in terms of the battle for the title with Arsenal and Manchester City.

The Liverpool coach told Sky Sports: "We should have won the game - that's clear. We caused a few problems for ourselves. We controlled the game, scored first and should've had other goals. They had no shots in the first half. But we made a mistake and they used that immediately - it was well executed from Bruno. Then the stadium is coming and they score another screamer. A wonderful goal.

"But we found a way back in the game. We had big chances before they scored and after they scored. It's a point at Manchester United. I know how people will see it - two points lost but we have a point more than we had before the game in an away game at Manchester United. These games are more special for us than other teams. They put an extra shift it."

Klopp was unable to hide his frustration with his team's finishing on the touchline and he wished that his attacking players would have shown more composure.

He said: "We were in a bit of a rush - I'd have loved us to take an extra touch. You always have to take different things from the game. I know the outside world will get nervous but we have to be calm - it's going to be full of life, excitement and desire. The goals we have scored have got us where we are. We need to build on that. We're deal with that in the right way.

"I'm not over the moon but it's OK. You take what you get. If we were more clinical then we could've won here."
