Accompanying this snap, the former defender said: “To play behind these three was the stuff of dreams. “Goals, energy, skill, composure, desire, speed, decision making all in those three.

The 41-year-old has also urged Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho to reject the approaches of competitors with Manchester United hoping to secure his services this summer.

That’s a big thing for Klopp but it’s a great position to be in. Who wouldn’t want to be in that position?”
