We all know what Jose’s capable of when he isn’t involved in the title race? He can trip the leader and give second place a chance to overtake them.

All the people connected to the 2013/14 Premier League title race excepting the slipping culprit Steven Gerrard are back and involved once again. Mourinho’s Chelsea was the first nail in the coffin for the Reds title chances when Brendan Rodgers was the Anfield boss.

Klopp has already passed the Spurs test. Though it was a test carried out at Anfield, a place where no team leaves with joy. He still needs to battle him and face this Spurs team for the first time in the new-look, White Hart Lane, come 11 January 2020.

It could be a three-point gap between Liverpool and whoever is below them at that moment in time. Jose could be the first nail in the coffin again, and yet again take the Reds further away from winning their first-ever Premier League title.

In return, Jose will be worried it doesn’t go against him as Klopp is the manager that’s handed the world-class manager his marching orders on two occasions. Once during his second Chelsea spell, and the second time while on the bench of their bitter rivals, Man United.
