Jurgen Klopp is gearing up for his seventh full season in the Premier League, and that knows his Liverpool side will have a "massive fight" on their hands just to finish in the top four.
The Reds have qualified for the Champions League in each of the past six campaigns as the German slowly brought the good times back to Anfield. But even with two trophies and two runners-up medals in the bag from last season, as well as £64million spent on new signing Darwin Nunez, Klopp knows that nothing is guaranteed next time around and it'll take an enormous effort from his team to once again book their place in Europe's premier competition.
"It's always like this: the main target is to qualify for the Champions League," the German told Sky Sports. "It's really difficult enough already. When you reach that and then still have time to fight for the title, then you do that. But for the majority of the season you fight for the Champions League."
