Liverpool legend Steve Nicol has defended manager Jurgen Klopp over his team's form slump.

However, the Scot says Klopp has some serious questions to address.

“I wouldn't go that far (to say he's a flop)," Nicol said on ESPN FC.

“I think questions are starting to be asked, basically what he can do for Liverpool defensively.

“We've seen what he can do for them as an attacking force.

“Everybody pretty much agrees that they are great to watch, they score goals and it's great.

“But regardless of that, it's the whole defensive question.

“I think it's time he started answering some questions why they let in so many goals."
