Jurgen Klopp was asked about his thoughts on Liverpool's clash with Everton on Wednesday and how important the game is going to be for his side.
"So yeah, super-important for us obviously, that's clear," he said. "I think with the last two results, Everton pretty much sorted it, staying in the league. They have us and another home game on the weekend, so three home games [in a row].
"Their idea is to win all three and then it should be sorted, definitely. And for us it's clear, the situation is clear [and] we don't have to say that again and again and again. It is really important like all the other games were as well. We know about the importance, definitely.
"I just had an interview with your colleague from Sky now and he asked me a similar question. The thing is, I don't know exactly when my first derby was? 2016?
"So, I was already in for a while, but when you come here, I really would think it would not be honest if I would have said immediately, 'That's my game of the year!' and stuff like this. It wasn't; I knew how important it was to all the people, but I didn't feel it then.
"That's not a problem for coaching a team, but meanwhile [now] I know it, I feel it and everything. It is absolutely clear. My feeling and my understanding developed over the years – and rightly so.
"[They are] always difficult games, especially there. At home it was – I am not sure if comfortable is the right way to say it – but more [comfortable] at least.
"I think we have a pretty good record; only Carlo Ancelotti [won at Anfield], who everybody knows is a really good manager. So, we lost against Carlo, [but] besides that we had good results, good games and now it is not too important what we had in the past.
"This is a super-important game for us, so whatever we did in the past is not too important for this game. We just should give it a proper try there and that's what we will do."
