Jurgen Klopp recently claimed that the depth in his current Liverpool squad was the best that he has had available during his managerial career.

The Reds decided against replacing Brazilian playmaker Philippe Coutinho during the January transfer window, but they did spend £75m on Netherlands centre-back Virgil van Dijk.

Liverpool currently sit third in the Premier League table - two points off second-placed Manchester United ahead of this weekend's home match against West Ham United.

The Merseyside club, meanwhile, have more than one foot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League following their 5-0 victory at Porto in the first leg of their last-16 European tie.

Klopp has a lot of reasons to be feeling positive at the moment, but his comments about squad depth have not gone down too well with the club's supporters.

Indeed, the Liverpool fans are not convinced that their current squad is capable of challenging for major honours.
