Jurgen Klopp watched Liverpool respond to win 2-1 in the rain

After the in-form Sadio Mane had given Liverpool a half-time lead, Milner, Virgil Van Dijk and Alisson Becker combined to gift former Anfield forward Ryan Babel the chance to score Fulham’s equaliser.But victory was ultimately secured in the 81st minute when Milner scored from the spot after Mane had been felled.Speaking to Sam Matterface after the game, Klopp revealed the performance was a warning to their rivals that they have the fortitude required.The boys’ reaction was really good, Klopp said. They were really calm, I thought we were emotional.4

Alisson and Van Dijk congratulate one another after their earlier defensive errors

Not shaky, but for sure worse before we got the equaliser.After it was like we wake up again, okay lets become a bit more clear and stuff.So, of course, the penalty I think it was a proper penalty nobody else told me something different.A brilliant finish from Milly [James Milner] then perfect even better than winning one nil to be honest.4

Milner celebrates after slamming his penalty home

We showed everybody who thinks maybe we could show a bit of nerves we dont. Lets carry on.After battering Bayern Munich in the Champions League, returning to the bread and butter of Premier League football was always going to be difficult.And with Fulham fighting for their lives, it was an uncomfortable afternoon for the Reds at times.But, with the international break looming, the German insists his team will focus on their own progress rather than title rivals Manchester City.4

Mohamed Salah looks devoid of confidence as his drought continues

I didnt think about it to be honest, maybe tonight I will think about it, Klopp added.So I dont know, you are better in first place than any other place of course thats clear.But we know now City has a game in hand and then we have to play after the break immediately Tottenham!They will fight for all they have for the position they are in or even better position, so it will be tough, 100%. But now lets see all the players come back healthy from the national break and then I will think we will really try to create a situation and a basis which gives us an opportunity to fight for everything.So lets do it, thats what we want to do.
