Jurgen Klopp has been told to "dismantle" his Liverpool team if he wants to get them back challenging again.
The Reds boss has overseen a poor season, with their latest blow coming as they were knocked out of the FA Cup to Brighton. The top four looks a long way off with the club currently sat in ninth whilst they face a challenging tie against holders Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Liverpool's recruitment has been cited as an issue - their failure to sign a midfielder in the summer has come back to haunt them with several key members of their squad now north of 30. Many of their current stars have been present for several years and Klopp has been urged to follow Sir Alex Ferguson's example at Manchester United by Richard Keys.
