Liverpool are top but draws in three of their last four games now have many tipping Manchester City to retain crown.
The Anfield manager has ordered his players to move on from their frustrating draw with Manchester United and cement their position as leaders.
Liverpool missed the opportunity of opening up a three-point lead over second-placed Manchester City when they were held 0-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday.
That followed their goalless Champions League stalemate with Bayern Munich last week.
Ahead of their Wednesday night home clash with Watford he told the club’s official website: “The situation is like it is. In the table we are in a very good position and now we have to make sure we use that on the pitch.
“I don’t want to close my eyes to the situation, because if United are beatable on the day, you have to do it – and we didn’t. So, that’s still [in my thoughts] somewhere.
“But, of course, I’m fine with the point. Let’s carry on. There was so much talk about the game again, like Bayern – world-class teams.
“Now we didn’t score twice against world-class teams, that happened to a lot of other teams as well.
“It was a difficult game. I still think we should have done better, 100 per cent. We will work on that.”
