Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has insisted Liverpool have no need to be at their "all-time best" in order to clinch a first English league title in 30 years. 

Premier League officials are now aiming to restart the season in mid-June, with Liverpool just two wins away from the title when the campaign was postponed on Mar 13 because of the coronavirus outbreak. 

For so long the dominant force in English football, the Merseysiders have not been crowned domestic champions in the Premier League era, with the last of their league titles coming when they won the old First Division crown in 1990. 

But as teams start returning to training, Klopp has tried to ease any mounting pressure on his runaway leaders who are 25 points clear at the top. 

"Football is a game where everyone is pretty much in the same situation. We play against another team, and we don't have to be at our all-time best, we have to be at our best possible and that's exactly the same for the other teams," he told the BBC's Football Focus program. 

"Whenever we will start, we will have had the same time for preparation and our job was always, and always will be, to use the situation you are in. We will be in as good a shape as possible." 

Meanwhile, the German boss said he was desperate to return to "normal life" after an unexpected two-month break by getting back to Liverpool's Melwood training base, where players will initially train in small groups. 

"I have missed the boys the most because we have created a group there, not only the boys but all the people at Melwood, because we have a really good relationship and we became friends over the last four-and-a-half years," he said.
