'You won't get the answers you want from me': Klopp stands firm on Liverpool's quadruple chances

"You can mention whatever you want, but it doesn't make it more likely. You won't get the answers you want from me," Jurgen Klopp told the press conference after beating City in the FA Cup semi-final.

"I think a game like today shows it even more how unlikely it is to do something like that.

"We went through now against City, which is incredibly difficult and intense, and in three days we play again against Man United, who with their three points today and the results from Tottenham and Arsenal, the fight for the Champions League, the door is open for all of the three. So, they will be on their toes and it is historically not a friendly game.

"Then in a few days we play Everton, in the situation they are, it will not be a friendly game. Then we play Villarreal, will not be a friendly game. Then Newcastle and all these kind of things, so it's just incredibly intense and it is really unlikely the team will win all the games.

"With the FA Cup final now, I think the Southampton game will now be moved, if I am 100 per cent right, that means we play Southampton in the midweek and so, it's really unlikely.

"But I couldn't care less, to be honest, I couldn't. It is just, let's go for it, let's try to win the next game and then we will see how we can recover between now and then – and then and then and all these kind of things. We will see."

Liverpool remain the only team not just in England, but in Europe that can win a treble - let alone a quadruple.

The latter would be an unprecedented achievement that would cement this team's place in football history. However, Klopp makes it clear that he will do it all to shield the players from the pressure during a stretch of key games.
