Gabby Agbonlahor sends another message to Jurgen Klopp and claims he's been proven right about Liverpool

Pundit Gabby Agbonlahor believes Liverpool have 'problems' and they are fighting for a top four place following Saturday's draw against Brighton in the Premier League.

The Reds came from 2-0 down to eventually draw 3-3 at Anfield this weekend, earning their fourth draw in the league already this season. Jurgen Klopp 's side have collected just 10 points out of a possible 21 so far and look a shadow of the team that competed on all four fronts last term

Agbonlahor, who has already been in a feud with the Liverpool boss this season, has once again hit out at Klopp and said he needs to 'get his team playing better'.

"They've got problems Liverpool," he said on talkSPORT. "After their third game this season I said on here they are fighting for a top four spot. Everyone was like 'come on, we're two or three games in'.

"They are. They are fighting for Champions League. There's no way (they are fighting for a title) playing like that. Arsenal play them next week at the Emirates and you'd fancy them to beat Liverpool and go fourteen points ahead.

"The Mr Mentality Monster (Klopp) needs to be a mentality monster himself and get his team playing better."

Liverpool find themselves ninth in the table after seven games, although they'll have a game in hand over most of their rivals after the clash with Chelsea was postponed before the international break. The Reds sit level on points with Everton and Brentford and 11 points off leaders Arsenal.

Next up, Klopp's side are in Champions League action with a meeting against Rangers at Anfield on Tuesday night. They then face Arsenal away at the Emirates on Sunday afternoon.
