Liverpool are focused solely on adding three more points to their tally and not the long-term ramifications of the outcome of today's clash with Manchester City, Jürgen Klopp insists.
The Reds are aiming to bounce back after their midweek disappointment in Naples by recording a win over their top-of-the-table rivals when they meet at Anfield this afternoon.
The sides have identical records after seven games of the Premier League season, with City just ahead of Liverpool due to a better goal difference.
And while many see the fixture as a pivotal one in determining how the complexion of the table will look come May, Klopp has detailed why the Reds will be blocking out that external noise.
