Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp insists they will not react to failing to secure Champions League football like “kids not getting candy”. With fourth-placed Chelsea high on confidence after adding a Champions League final to next weekend’s FA Cup final, the chances of catching them look remote as they hold a seven-point advantage, having played one match more. Klopp admits the task is a difficult, although not impossible, one but the prospect of Europa League football next season would not see the 2019 European champions sulking. “We are responsible for the situation we are in and nobody will watch next season’s Champions League and lie in front of the television and cry if we are not involved. “We still have a chance for the Champions League and we have to be concentrated on that.
