Speaking in his press conference ahead of the big kick-off in the Premier League, Klopp told the media: "We are still Rocky Balboa, we're not Ivan Drago."
It was a reference to suggestions that having lavished £168m, Liverpool could no longer be considered plucky, Rocky-esque underdogs - a position Klopp enjoys.
