Luis Garcia: Liverpool need Champions League back at Anfield

Liverpool great Luis Garcia believes Champions League football belongs at Anfield.

The Reds currently sit fifth on the Premier League table, a point behind fourth-placed Arsenal, and former attacking midfielder Lucho has implored Jurgen Klopp's side to do everything in their power to return top flight European football to Merseyside.

"We still have to think [about] getting the top four," the Spaniard said in the latest episode of LFCTV's #LFCWORLD.

"At the beginning of the season we were talking about that [but] Liverpool arrived to fourth place, third place, and suddenly we realised that they would have a chance to win the trophy and we started changing our [aim].

"Even though we have struggled in 2017 with a few of the results, the team is getting back on its feet with a fantastic result against Tottenham.

"We have to continue [thinking] about bringing Champions League back to Anfield.

"If something bigger arrives, that's fantastic, but the most important [thing] is to bring the team back to play in those important games in the Champions League."
