Liverpool legend John Aldridge feels manager Jurgen Klopp's team could be the greatest the club has seen.

The Reds are cruising towards their first league title in 30 years, with Sunday's 2-0 win over Manchester United putting them 16 points clear at the top of the Premier League table with a game in hand.

"You're looking at a team that's right up there with the best Liverpool teams of all time," Aldridge told Sky Sports News.

"What they've done this year is ridiculous, with all the things they've won. If they can cap it off by winning the Premier League, they're possibly the best Liverpool team in history.

"For the last 12 months or more, it's been pretty incredible.

"With Jurgen Klopp at the helm for another four years or so, and what he's got to build with, they might be able to what Manchester City did, and Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal teams of the past did."
