Jurgen Klopp reacts to Liverpool's fifth consecutive league win

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has praised his side's performance in their 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday, describing it as "very good".

Klopp also said that his side deserved the win, their fifth in as many Premier League games this season.

Liverpool led two nil inside 54 minutes through Georginio Wijnaldum and Roberto Firmino before Erik Lamela got one back for Spurs in stoppage time.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "We deserved to win that game today. Over 85 minutes we were really dominant. With and without the ball we caused them massive problems."

The Reds are proving to be one of the sides to beat this season and demonstrated against Mauricio Pochettino's men that they can get results even without dominating play, an important ingredients a potential champion needs.

Klopp's men will face Southampton in their next EPL game, but not before their UEFA Champions League fixture against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.

The Anfield side are currently with fifteen points from five games.
