Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp insists he took charge never feeling the need to dominate Manchester United.
Liverpool go to United in the FA Cup quarterfinal today.
Klopp, referring to Alex Ferguson's arrival at United with Liverpool dominant said: "It is different. Alex Ferguson came from Scotland, I came from Germany. Different times.
"I know the famous phrase with the perch but I had other things to think about than Manchester United when I came to be honest.
"In my first year Leicester won the league, second year Chelsea, then Manchester City started winning the league. No, nothing with Manchester United, this is not me.
"I don't think about anybody else. If we face them, yes. If we don't face them, they can do what they want. I have nothing to do with that, I can't influence it.
"I was aware, I was told [we've won the most now]. It is important as long as we can win something [more], then I can count."
