The Reds equalled a top-flight record of 18 successive victories – and also set a new landmark for the number of consecutive league home triumphs, with the win against Palace – their 23rd in a row. Their record for the season so far stands at 86 points accumulated after 31 matches played, with 28 wins, two draws, and one defeat.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Klopp said, "I have no words, it is unbelievable. It is much more than I ever thought it would be possible. Becoming Champions with this club is incredible. Knowing how much Kenny supported us - it is for you as well Kenny and Stevie who had to wait a long time and now it is for all. The boys admire you and it is easy for me to motivate the team because of our great history and it is unbelievable."
