Jurgen Klopp writes off Liverpool's title hopes after Arsenal defeat leaves them 14 points adrift of Premier League leaders... as Reds boss hits out at Gabriel Jesus and the officials over 'soft penalty'

Jurgen Klopp bemoaned refereeing decisions, accused Gabriel Jesus of diving, and confirmed Liverpool face a double injury blow following a defeat by Arsenal that prompted the Liverpool boss to concede ‘We’re not in the (title) race.’

Bukayo Saka’s penalty took Mikel Arteta’s side back to the top of the Premier League. They are now 14 points ahead of Liverpool in 10th after a pulsating battle that saw both Luis Diaz and Trent Alexander-Arnold suffer nasty injuries. ‘It doesn't look good for both. That is the icing on the cake,’ Klopp said.
