I want to show we are capable of playing a different game at home.” We know it will be a tricky atmosphere for us.” Now one game away from our third final, a Premier League title won, an FA Cup Final and a League cup already won this season.

FSG's president, Mike Gordon, was at Anfield with the manager's agent, Marc Kosicke, on Wednesday night with a contract extension on their agenda.

Liverpool’s outstanding form this season – they have won the Carabao Cup, face Chelsea in the FA Cup final, trail Manchester City by one point in the title race with five games left and are on course for a third Champions League final appearance in five seasons – has helped to re-energise Klopp. But he has also been enthused by the club’s long-term planning. But in early March, asked about staying beyond 2024, he said: “If I have the energy levels for it. Liverpool’s owners have long hoped the 54-year-old would sign another contract with the club he has revitalised since his arrival in October 2015.

Jurgen Klopp may only consider it 'half-time' but Liverpool utterly dominated Villarreal in Wednesday's semi-final first leg.

They are on the brink of a third final in the space of five seasons. Against Villarreal, he also made five interceptions and was inches away from raising the roof with a stunning 25-yarder that slammed against the post. That’s a testament to the work of the club’s medical and sports science staff, as well as Klopp’s clever rotation policy, which has helped ensure no one is overburdened. They had just one shot in the space of 90 minutes. This was as comfortable as a Champions League semi-final gets. Opta data shows that across those matches, Liverpool made 1,622 more passes than their opponents and had 93 more touches in the opposition box. They know what it takes to get there and they want to savour it once again. The second was a beauty as Sadio Mane bagged his 20th of the season by converting Mohamed Salah’s exquisite pass. It was underpinned by a collective energy and work ethic that repeatedly knocked Villarreal out of their stride. There was no flurry of fist pumps in front of the jubilant Kop on this occasion but deep down, he will have been bursting with pride. Liverpool could have lost their rag over the time-wasting. There was no respite for the La Liga outfit.

If Liverpool finishes off Villarreal in the second leg on Tuesday, Klopp's team will play either Madrid or City in the final in Paris on May 28. Liverpool’s next match — away to a resurgent Newcastle on Saturday — might be the toughest to win because it comes in the middle of a tight six-day turnaround between games against Villarreal in the Champions League semifinals. Leeds and Newcastle might be the most dangerous as they come either side of City’s second leg against Real Madrid in the Champions League semifinals. City won the domestic treble in 2018-19 but lost in the Champions League to Tottenham in the quarterfinals. It has been achieved, though, by Celtic’s so-called Lisbon Lions in the 1966-67 season. Germany did so in 2007 and Spain hasn’t had a League Cup equivalent since 1986.

Jurgen Klopp has signed a contract extension at Liverpool that will see him remain at Anfield until 2026, the club announced on Thursday.

As with Klopp, the contracts of both Lijnders and Krawietz were both set to expire in just over two years.

His contract expires next year, at the same time as those for fellow forwards Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino run out. “I didn’t need too long to answer in truth.

The tables from five years ago have been well and truly turned for Liverpool. Where they were once clueless when having lots of possession, their opponents are now hopeless in both attacking and defensive terms when they do. While they had been under pressure for much of their quarter-final tie with Bayern Munich, they were still able to break out and have a total of 16 shots in the 180 minutes. It was the seventh time Liverpool have scored from a high turnover in the league this season, more than any other team in the division. There’s a famous image of Adam Lallana almost collapsing in his manager’s arms when he was substituted in Klopp’s first game in charge, a 0-0 draw at Tottenham. The Reds were now a high pressing team and determined to prove that whether home or away. Liverpool were repeatedly set this test in 2015/16 and then Klopp’s first full season at the helm, and repeatedly they failed it. If you wanted to look at how far Liverpool have come under the management of Jürgen Klopp, you only have to look at the competitions they have won and continue to compete for these days, compared with when he was first appointed.

The goals came in a span of 133 seconds from the 53rd minute, when Jordan Henderson's cross from the right deflected off the outstretched boot of Estupinan and looped over goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli, who flapped at the ball and could only turn it into the net. A team sitting in seventh place in the Spanish league, and filled with players who failed to make it in England, somehow managed to eliminate European royalty in Juventus and Bayern Munich in the knockout stage. A third Champions League final in five years is in sight for the English club after their 2-0 win in the first leg of the semi-finals on Wednesday, secured after an own-goal by Pervis Estupinan and a poked finish by Sadio Mane in a two-minute span early in the second half.
