Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is delighted with his squad's morale after victory over Cardiff City.

The Reds longer-serving stars such as injured skipper Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana could be forgiven for fearing after the arrival of so many new faces at Anfield.

Two of them, Fabinho and Xherdan Shaqiri, played major roles in their four-goal drubbing of strugglers Cardiff that sent the Reds top of the Premier League.

But Klopp said: “They are not jealous.

“Everybody who comes in is like, 'wow it is so much better than what we had before'.

“It is really no problem.

“They all get the same respect and it is only what they think about each other.

“For the boys it should only be important what I think. They like it when new players come in.

“We brought them in to make us better in specific situations. They really are fine. We have these choices, that is the most important thing."
