Arsenal take the lead in the Premier League. Mikel Arteta's side lived up to expectations against Brighton (0-3) as did City against Crystal Palace (2-4), while Liverpool dropped two points at Old Trafford (2-2) and handed the lead to the Gunners.
Jürgen Klopp, who was angry with his players in the Red Devils' 2-1 momentary lead, was in the press room afterwards and addressed the clash between United and Arsenal on the last Premier League matchday, a game that could mark the future of the English championship.
"Arsenal is a good football team and if [United] play like today, Arsenal will win that game, I’m 100% sure, I’m really sorry to say that but this is a matter of fact. We should’ve won both games and didn’t. That’s our fault," he told reporters.
On the importance of being leaders in this final stretch of the domestic championship, Klopp said: "It's very important. People will say we need to score more to improve our goal difference, but that doesn't help. We have to be ourselves, I'm fine with that. We were leading, now Arsenal are leading and maybe it will be someone else between now and the end. Hopefully it will be us. I'd like to have more points, but I'm happy with the boys because they're the ones who put us in this situation.
