“It’s over when it’s over, not before,” added Klopp, saying he had forgotten during the week how many points Liverpool were on and was now purely focused in their next games at Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup and West Ham United in the Premier League.

Klopp praised Wolves’ fight and spoke of the need for his charges to keep improving, despite their lofty status.

“Wolves are doing so unbelievably well, so different to everything else you face. How (manager) Nuno (Espirito Santo) sets it up, it’s really good,” he said in admiration of a team who have been taking big scalps at their Molineux fortress.
