Klopp: Liverpool will do everything it takes to maintain title fight

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admits what his side have done at the midpoint of their season could not be matched by many teams but he expects a real fight for the next 19 matches.A 1-0 win over Wolves thanks to Sadio Manes 14th goal of the campaign just before half-time made it 18 wins and a draw so far as they re-established their 13-point lead at the top.If it would be easy to win the amount of games we have done then more teams would have done it. Its not easy, he said.Klopp gestures during the win over Wolves (Nick Potts/PA)We have to fight with all we have. I couldnt be more proud of what they did a gain to get that result over the line. It was just impressive. Im really happy about that.But there is a long way to go for all of us. Everybody asks me what it was like in 2019 my 2019 team was brilliant but thats not important, we count seasons, not years.The 2019-20 season is not over. We are halfway there. There are 19 games to play. Thats a lot and probably 19 of them will be like this tonight, for different reasons.We will be facing teams who will be fighting for the league with all they have, and the fight for the Champions League and Europa League has opened up again.We have to be ready. Who cares about points in December? We have just created a basis we can work with from now on.VAR dominated the post-match discussion as Manes goal was originally ruled out for handball by Adam Lallana by referee Anthony Taylor only him to overturn that after a referral.Liverpools Jordan Henderson exchanges words with Wolves Ruben Neves and Conor Coady (Nick Potts/PA)Moments later Wolves scored through Pedro Neto only for the equaliser to be chalked off as Jonnys foot was deemed to be marginally offside.I think Nuno wasnt happy with the VAR procedure. What can we say about the decision? For me, I was surprised when the whistle came for the handball, added Klopp.I thought it was a clear shoulder from the first second. But how can you be sure? So it took a while.After three minutes the decision was done. I saw immediately a kind of relief for a second, we are human beings so thats normal.But the next long ball we werent there for the second ball, Adam makes a foul. Free-kick, corner, (Wolves) goal.It didnt count obviously but it brought the momentum to their side.Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo was not willing to talk about VAR (Nick Potts/PA)They were really aggressive and really angry with us as well, we had nothing do with that situation but sometimes thats how it happens.Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo refused to discuss VARs impact on the game.I am sorry but today I dont want to speak about VAR, it is not about that. I just dont want to mention anything about it, he said.The only thing is the decisions are being taken by a referee that is miles away from here and he doesnt feel the game, he is not at the game.I am a coach, I have to think about my own things but what we dont want is what is happening Liverpool are a fantastic team, club, stadium and we are celebrating a non-goal.
