SOUTHAMPTON: Jurgen Klopp has promised Liverpool will be challenging for the Premier League title next season after a disappointing campaign ended with a 4-4 draw away to already-relegated Southampton on Sunday .
Liverpool, however, at least looked as if they would finish a trophy-less term with a flourish thanks to early goals from Diogo Jota and outgoing fans' favourite Roberto Firmino. Liverpool eventually extended their unbeaten run to 11 games thanks to a goal from substitute Cody Gakpo and a second from Jota."There were moments during the season when you thought 'the season will be four years long'," he said."Thank God for the last 11 games, that helped massively, gave us a real boost, gave us a perspective, gave us a basis for what we have to do."
"But there are moments when you have to admit there were four teams that were better than us -- that's the truth."Imagine we were our normal self, which we absolutely will be again next season and will be a contender again. That's how is it. The last 11 games helped us to realise that again."
