Liverpool has built a massive 25-point advantage over City at the top of the Premier League table, with the Reds winning 25 of their 27 matches in 2019-20 thus far.
Klopp’s men were cruising toward a league title when the coronavirus pandemic brought the season to a halt in March, with play yet to resume.
The English top-flight is aiming to return in June under their “Project Restart” initiative, with the Reds just two wins away from their first Premier League title.
Though City’s title defence is set to end meekly Rodri has said he is still proud of his side’s campaign thus far, with Liverpool simply on another level in 2019-20.
“Sometimes football is like this,” the Spaniard told Sky Sports News. “Liverpool have been amazing this season in the Premier League. They have focused their entire mentality on the Premier League only and in these situations the only thing you can do is clap.
“But we’ve had many problems this year. We have had lots of injuries and important players out but it’s not been a bad season for us – we’re second.
“OK, it’s not where we want to be but sometimes it’s like this, and we have to keep going. I think we are proud of the season we’ve done.
“We already have two titles (Community Shield and Carabao Cup) and we have a chance to get another two including the Champions League.”
