Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp remains relaxed about the growing pressure at the top of the table as he is confident his side are destined to get better again.
Since the Reds beat Manchester City on New Year's Eve they have taken two points from a possible six with Sunday's 1-1 draw at Manchester United following a 2-2 draw at Sunderland.
That has allowed leaders Chelsea to open up a seven-point gap and has also seen in-form Tottenham move into second place, albeit only on goal difference. There is also pressure from below with Arsenal a point behind and United, in sixth, five back.
