Liverpool boss Klopp reveals what the outcome of the Manchester derby would be

- Jurgen Klopp will not be putting his hope on Man United ahead of the Manchester derby

- Pep Guardiola's side will play Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men in a blockbuster at Old Trafford

- Liverpool will be expecting the Red Devils to win or draw to hand them an opportunity

Jurgen Klopp is not relying on Manchester United getting a result against city rivals Manchester City in their midweek clash at Old Trafford.

Liverpool are looking to clinch their first Premier League title in 29 years but their hopes lie on their greatest rivals getting a result against City.

The Red Devils are the highest-placed team remaining for Pep Guardiola's side to play in the remaining three Premier League matches left.

But United who lost 4-0 to Everton at Goodison Park last weekend have now lost their last five matches in all competitions under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Speaking to Sky Sports after Liverpool's 2-0 win at Cardiff, Klopp was asked if he will be on the edge of his seat watching Wednesday's clash at Old Trafford.

"I think I'll be watching if there's nothing else to do,' he said. "Hopefully I can avoid that (shouting), we have no influence.

"It doesn't look like at the moment that Man Utd can really... what was the result today? 3-0? 4-0?

"So we'll see, City will be ready and we'll see if United are ready as well. It's a normal game, it's a game they have to play, we played there and had a draw.

"We had to play that game at Manchester United when they were in a much better moment. It was a 0-0.

"If United gets a point and whatever and we beat Huddersfield then go to Newcastle and even half think we have it, then we get a knock there, it's all difficult.

"We just have to stay focused on our things. That's what has worked really well so far and I don't see any reason why we should change that."

Liverpool are the top of the Premier League table by a point over City but have played a game more.

And a win for Guardiola's side would put them a point above Liverpool with both teams having three games remaining, but a draw would leave the Reds' fate in their own hands.

City will travel to Turf Moore to play Burnley, then host Leicester at the Etihad and play their last game of the season against Brighton.

Liverpool on the other hand, will host Huddersfield at Anfield, then play Newcastle away and end the season at home to Wolves.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
