Jurgen Klopp insists Liverpool are focused on all competitions this season, despite advice they should "kick the Champions League into touch" to help their Premier League title chances, reports Sky Sports.

"How does that work? Not play Champions League?" Klopp said at his press conference.

"How do you prepare for a game and not focus on it? You bring your kids in the Champions League? That would be funny. We have to play football."

"A lot of people watch our games from the Champions League, it's our job to do the best we can do in all these games," added Klopp.

"We will see, I don't know what it means, to focus on one competition can only be if you're nearly out of a competition, late in the season.

"But last year, we had no chance to focus on one competition, we had to qualify for the Champions League."
