Liverpool boss Klopp: We're ready to spend - but on Coutinho replacement...?

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has played down the prospect of buying a replacement for Philippe Coutinho.

Klopp insists Adam Lallana can fill the void.

He said, "I don't think about money. Nobody told me that I have to think about money because we are always reasonable, we always try to do the right thing.

"Obviously we don't hesitate to spend the money, we did a few times, but it is not about the moment, it is about making the right decision.

"I really think, it is not that Adam Lallana is a replacement for Philippe Coutinho but he is back. Cool. It is another wonderful, creative, offensive midfield player.

"Does he have the same free kick as Philippe Coutinho? No, but there are a lot of things he can do. He can make us stronger in these situations."
