​Klopp insists Liverpool not judging Man Utd on points

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes that Manchester United should be judged on their squad quality.

The Red Devils are sixth in the Premier League, 16 points behind their arch rivals, as the two prepare for battle at Anfield on Sunday.

Klopp is aware of how United have struggled in the league. But he also knows the quality they possess throughout the team.

"I've been aware of the criticism but when we analyse and switch off the sound there is a lot of quality, technique, strength," he said during his pre-match press conference.

"They have pretty much everything. [David] De Gea in the goal. [Marcus] Rashford and [Romelu] Lukaku, [Jesse] Lingard too are unbelievable.

"We don't judge the points they have just the quality."
