The Portuguese wants Jurgen Klopp to be aware of fatigue and believes the Reds will not surrender Premier League title this term
Liverpool were close to winning the premier League last season after which they let slipped a seven point lead over champions Manchester City and eventually trail the Cityzens with just one point to the golden prize.
Jurgen Klopp's men have also found the initial lead in the competition this time around. They've gone unbeaten since the kickoff of the campaign and had so far recorded only one draw in their undefeated streak.
A whopping 34 points from 12 games shows no other team has started better in the top division than Liverpool this season.
Liverpool moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League after defeating Manchester City 3-1 in Anfield on Sunday.
And former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is convinced the Reds' early lead can not be thrown away this season unless they are being hit hard by injuries.
Mourinho said on Sky Sports: "If you are behind [in the title race], you have to feel like you can reach them. If you are top of the league with a big advantage, you have to feel like it is not over.
"But I am not there, I'm here. And here, from my position, I think it's done unless something dramatic happens in terms of an injury situation that breaks the team.
"But I think the team is a complete puzzle. I feel the way they play is adapted to the qualities of the players.
"City are capable of winning seven, eight, nine matches in a row, but I can't see how Liverpool can lose this advantage of nine points to them."
