Jurgen Klopp details why Liverpool do not have any fringe players

Jurgen Klopp has insisted there are no fringe players in his Liverpool squad as they all share a healthy competition for places. Klopp has used 18 players so far this season. Youngsters Rhian Brewster and Caoimhin Kelleher are set to make their competitive debuts, while the likes of Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren could get some rare playing time. "How do we improve?" Klopp said to the Liverpool Echo . "You only have to look at your passport, as long as you are not dead, you can improve, that is how it is. That's how it is for all of us, so I don't have to convince them. And they know if they don't then there is another player who can [play] the same position, in a different way, maybe, but for sure that is the pressure the boys have to deal with. "It is not massive [pressure] because we don't use that fact because we really see ourselves as a unit and whoever is in the best shape has to play. So it's not about your name, it is 'you're in the best shape to play' because the [difference in] quality is that [small]. The boys are really close to each other and there is not a massive difference between them, so that is good. It keeps them on their toes, playing for Liverpool keeps them on their toes."
