Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has insisted that he is not overtly worried about Manchester City and Manchester United’s strong start to the Premier League campaign.
The two Manchester clubs are at top of the Premier League summit level on points after five games and are yet to taste defeat this season in all competitions.
Many observers are already feeling the title race will be closely contested between the red and the blue half of Manchester and Klopp admits that he has taken note of their flying starts.
However, the Liverpool manager is not too concerned at the moment as he feels the season will be long and hard and for the moment he wants his team to concentrate on their own game.
But he is not surprised that Manchester City and Manchester United are strong title contenders this season.

Klopp said in a press conference: “I watched United and City, but it’s not my job to count points.
“They are in a good shape, but a season is like this and at the end you will have the usual names.
"As long as your attitude is right then you do not need to look at other teams.
“It’s not a surprise that City and United are in [the title race].”
Liverpool suffered a chastening 5-0 loss at the hands of Manchester City earlier in the month and will host Manchester United at Anfield next month.
