Liverpool were crowned Premier League champions on Friday evening following Chelsea's 2-1 victory over distant runner-up Manchester City at Stamford Bridge.
It became the Reds 19th English top-flight title won after thirty years of setbacks, leaving them one behind bitter rivals Manchester United.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer whose Manchester United side are currently battling for a top-four finish congratulated the Reds for their success and hoped his team get the best out of their FA Cup campaign.
"First of all, any team that wins the championship and a Premier League deserve it and they deserve credit," he said.
"It's a hard league to win, so well done to Jurgen (Klopp) and his players.
"For me, every time you see anyone else lift the trophy it hurts. I reckon that's the feeling everyone associated with Man United – all players, staff and supporters. Of course we want to get back to winning ways and that’s our challenge.
On the FA Cup he said: "I think first of all the FA Cup is a fantastic tournament, and a fantastic final to play a part in, a fantastic trophy to lift.
"For our team, it's a new team and to get hands on a first trophy and win a first title would be fantastic and hopefully a catalyst for more things to come.
"So we are focused on doing our best, getting through to the next round and hopefully to the final."
