The Reds are now one point behind the champions after a 0-0 draw with Everton.
But Klopp is calling for calm, as well as reflecting on their performance moving forward.
"The only way that you can win something is to stay calm but lively, critical but confident, and in the end believe in your chance," said Klopp. "I believe 100 per cent in our chance.
"Beginning of March, who cares? The good thing is we are in that battle, that's really good news. My feeling is more and more we are really prepared for it."
Klopp reacted angrily to suggestions he did not attack enough in search of victory.,
"We don't play PlayStation. Do you think we didn't take enough risks? That's a really disappointing question, I have to say," was Klopp's response.
"There are nine games to go, we don't lose our nerve like you obviously. It's the second time you ask a question I really don't get.
"There's not a moment where we say, 'Come on now, throw everything in that direction'. You cannot play in the Premier League like that.
"We take all the risks but you cannot take more than 100 per cent risk, going nuts.
"I don't think I have to give my players advice because they know it already. We are not little boys any more."
