Jurgen Klopp concedes he never anticipated that Liverpool should get so near winning a phenomenal quadruple as they get ready for Sunday's Merseyside derby against Everton.
Klopp's side are offering to turn into the principal English club to lift every one of the four significant prizes in a solitary season.
They have previously won the League Cup, will confront Chelsea in the FA Cup last in May and are secured in a strained title race with Manchester City, who are one point ahead with six games left.
The Reds could likewise win the Champions League, with an elimination round first leg against Villarreal approaching one week from now.
Klopp has over and again made light of Liverpool's expectations of a decisive victory and he is stunned that they have arrived at the last a long time of the time still in with a possibility impacting the world forever.
"It is what is going on we didn't anticipate being in and we've never been experiencing the same thing," Klopp said on Friday. "It's unbelievably extreme, we play essentially constantly.
"I didn't anticipate that we should win the League Cup, be in a FA Cup last, elimination round of the Champions League and one point behind the head of the table.
"We love what is going on we are in. You can't design it that you are still in and around everything. What we know, there's nothing really accomplished up to this point yet, or it's anything but a ton."
Liverpool's flood in the final part of the time has overwhelmed even Klopp - in January they were 14 focuses behind guarding Premier League champions City.
"We had a totally OK initial segment of the time, yet it wasn't so much that that individuals were excited when you are 14 focuses behind the pioneer," he said.
"What the young men made of that was exceptional up to this point, yet that is all there is to it. We realized we will be better. Yet, that we will be here, I had no clue about."
When Liverpool start off against Everton on Sunday, they could be four focuses behind Pep Guardiola's City, who will hope to beat second-base Watford on Saturday.
With Everton sitting only one spot and one point over the assignment zone, there is considerably more in question in the derby than expected.
"It was generally extremely serious and, indeed, this one is significant for both, yet I can't recollect when it was not significant for us," Klopp said.
"Perhaps somewhat more (than expected) yet extreme all the time. These derbies never needed power, frankly."
