Klopp says Liverpool must be 'close to perfection' to win another Premier League title

The Reds are winless in four league matches but their manager is still encouraged by their performance against Man Utd on Sunday

Liverpool head coach Jurgen Klopp has said his side will need to be "close to perfection" in order to win a second straight Premier League title.

Klopp's side ran away with the title last term, clinching the club's first Premier League crown by an 18-point margin over Manchester City.

The race for the title is set to be much closer this season with Liverpool currently in fourth place, four points back of table-topping Leicester City having played one game fewer.
