We’re on fire, Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp warns

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has warned Porto that his team are “on fire” and not feeling the pressure of probably having to win all their remaining games this season.

Liverpool take on the Portuguese champions in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday, in a rematch of the last-16 tie they won last season.

Klopp’s side are also leading the Premier League with just five games to go, although Manchester City are just two points behind and have a game in hand.

When it was put to Klopp they may need to win all of the matches they still have to play this campaign, he said: “To be in the situation we are, we had to pretty much win all the games. We are used, this season, to this situation.

“It’s such a good time, you can feel it in this moment. We are in two big competitions, but we have to use this situation. We have not finished our development. We want to write a few proper things on the pages of this season.

“We’re on fire to be honest; in training you can see it. We are really in a good way.”
