'We can close the slipping book now!' - Klopp hails Liverpool for ending Chelsea demons

Jurgen Klopp said it's time to stop talking about Steven Gerrard's costly slip against Chelsea in 2014 after Andy Robertson survived a similar mishap as Liverpool beat the Blues on Sunday.

The hosts were leading 2-0 at Anfield thanks to goals from Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah when Scotland defender Roberston lost his footing inside his own half during Sunday's game.

The Reds hung on to the lead to return to the top of the Premier League table.

Afterwards, Klopp said: "We can close the slipping book then. Robbo slipped and nothing happened.
