ESPN FC's Steve Nicol and the FC crew discuss the 'antsy' atmosphere at Anfield and the pressure associated with a tight Premier League title race.
Jurgen Klopp says from a club point of view, winning the Premier League or finishing top four financially benefits the club more than just winning silverware.
Liverpool have said defender Joe Gomez will undergo more surgery to help his recovery from a lower leg fracture.
Gomez has been absent since December and was initially expected to be sidelined for six weeks.
However, the 21-year-old's recovery has been more complicated than thought and he will have further surgery to aid his rehabilitation.
"The club's medical staff believe he will benefit from a further procedure to enable a more complete recovery," a statement on Liverpool's website said.

"It's a blow for the boy and for us, because prior to the injury he was in such fantastic shape," manager Jurgen Klopp said.
"But he is too valuable to take any risk with, both for our present and future, so we get this procedure done and he comes back when he's ready.
"His attitude during this rehab has been outstanding, but it just hasn't healed as we'd have liked so we will make this intervention and then he will come back."
