Klopp insists 'unfair' for Liverpool not to be crowned Premier League champions

Jurgen Klopp says it would be unfair for Liverpool not to be crowned Premier League champions.

The Reds hold a 25 point lead to second-placed Manchester City, with matches currently suspended due to the coronavirus.

He said at a talk at the DFB Academy: "There was talk that people wanted to declare the season null and void. So you thought: 'Huh? We have played 76 percent of the season and you just want to delete the thing?'

"That would have been something that I personally would find unfair, to just say that it didn't happen.

"We are first in the home table, we are first in the away table. It is a season in which we should become champions.

"Dealing with the crisis is the most important thing. But that doesn't mean that certain things are of no importance at all just because they are less important.

"I think there are worse things in life than not becoming champions. A lot of people around us have big problems. People die, it always happens, but at the moment because of a virus that we all didn't know and for which nobody could be prepared.

"We cannot prepare for everything, but also have to react often. That's the biggest part of my life, reacting to things that I didn't expect."
