Klopp talks up three-horse race
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says the Premier League title race is most definitely a three-horse race, with Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur the challengers.
A 1-1 draw at West Ham on Monday evening left the Reds three points clear of the Citizens, with Spurs a further two points behind of the Merseysiders.
It is not about pressure - it's about enjoying the situation you are in.

However, Klopp is not worried by the challenge ahead, despite seeing his side drop seven points from their last five league games.
He told his club's official website following the draw at the London Stadium: "I think since five, six, seven, eight weeks we talked about a two-horse race.
"Now Tottenham came from behind, they have a very difficult situation and deal with it brilliantly, I have to say.
"Winning games very late with a lot of injury problems as well, that's great. For me, they are 100 per cent in the race.
"We have to fight, it is not about pressure - it's about enjoying the situation you are in. We have 62 points, have lost one game in the league season so far, which is very positive."
Liverpool are 11/10 to be crowned Premier League champions this season, with City available at 5/6 and Spurs 16/1.
Reigning champions City have an opportunity to move to the top of the table on goal difference on Wednesday, when they head to Goodison Park to take on Everton.
The Citizens have won the last two meetings of the two teams by 3-1 scorelines and are 3/10 to take all three points again on Wednesday evening.
