Liverpool would be deserving champions, says Kevin De Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne says that if Liverpool emerge at the end of the Premier League season as champions, he will congratulate his rivals on what would be a terrific achievement.

The Reds are just one point ahead of Manchester City and with 10 games to go, the title race looks set to go down to the wire.

If Klopp can guide his side to 10 wins over the next few months, Liverpool will end the season on 99 points, one shy of City’s record-smashing 17/18 title win.

“There’s not a different atmosphere as we are probably on the same level as we were then – but last year we were 12 points ahead, and now we are one behind,” De Bruyne assessed. “That shows Liverpool are doing well.

“If we keep winning and they keep winning it goes to the wire, but if we win every game until the end of the season and it’s not enough you just have to congratulate Liverpool, as they will win with 99 points.

“There are still 10 games in the Premier League – a long way to go – and Liverpool are still there, so we try to win game by game.

“We don’t know where we will end up. We want to win every game but with the schedule being so tough it gets difficult.”
