Liverpool showed everything on Saturday that makes them a Title contender. Resolute defence, dominant midfield, and flowing counterattacks, these are things that define Klopp's playing style and the current Liverpool side has them in plenty.

James Milner is proving to be the most important player in Klopp's team sheet. His experience and strong positional sense make it easier for the attacking players to concentrate on attack.

The only question mark remains is about Liverpool’s composure. They had the chance to finish the game long before the 90-minute mark but they lacked the clinical ability in their finishing. But given that the season is just 5 matches old, they are bound to improve from here on.

Liverpool has only started a top-flight season with five victories on two previous occasions (1978-79, 1990-91) and on both occasions they finished in the top two that campaign, winning the title in 1979. This stat would give Klopp a lot of confidence going in full throttle for the Premier League Title.
