Liverpool

ended their sloppy season on Sunday with a 2-0 victory over

Crystal Palace

, finishing third in the Premier League table and grabbing a spot in next season's Champions League.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp, who led the Reds to an undefeated run in their last 10 Premier League outings, praises his men for playing to their full potential and acquiring a late spot in Europe’s greatest competition.

"Outstanding, best I could've dreamt of - we wanted this feeling, this game, this atmosphere,"

Klopp told

BBC Radio 5 Live

.

"Finishing the season in third is incredible, I can't believe it - credit to the boys, I can't believe how it worked out in the last few weeks, incredible.

"Rhys Williams and Nat Phillips are both cut up and stitched, Rhys hasn't trained for three days, Gini Wijnaldum leaving the club and we all love him to bits.

"We will miss him so much, with football it's normal that people leave, but I will miss him so much."

The German also made a few kind remarks about his rival, Roy Hodgson.

"Roy is a legend as well, very influential and important for football,"

he added.

"He travelled the world managing, saw very early how defending really has to work and kept that up through his career, exceptional."
