Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has rejected doubts around Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.

Redknapp wrote for The Sun: "He has had a rough time of it this season but it amazes me how some people have questioned whether Jurgen Klopp is a great manager.

"You don't win the title and Champions League if you're not pretty special. And he's done that and plenty more besides at Liverpool.

"But all it took was a few dodgy results over the first couple of months of the season and he had everyone on his case.

"Absolutely ridiculous.

"Maybe that incredible second half when they won 7-1 at Rangers on Wednesday will shut a few of them up.

"But, football being what it is these days, I suspect not.

"There's no doubt Liverpool have been off it this season and, whatever they did at Ibrox, I do think the league is beyond them already.

"The Champions League win was a step in the right direction but it is a bit of light at the end of the tunnel and no more."
