Jurgen Klopp is expected to arrive on Merseyside on Thursday to finalise his appointment as manager of Liverpool.

The former Borussia Dortmund coach has been reported to be satisfied with the squad on offer at Anfield and will only look to make minor improvements in the winter transfer window.

The news will please those at the club who have struggled to hold down a starting berth. Several memebers of the squad felt that, under Brendan Rodgers, their chances were limited.

Jurgen Klopp's best quotes

The former manager's unhappiness with the club's transfer policy, the controversial 'committee', left many wondering which signings were Rodgers' choice and which arrived at the club thanks to the wisdom of crowds.

It wasn't hard to tell, you just had to look who was playing in the team.

In the December of last year, poor performances in the league and Europe meant things had to change. Rodgers was reportedly warned to start playing 'committee' signings more often.

The tension, however, did not subside and is believed to be one of the main reasons behind his dismissal.

Now, with a new man set to take the reigns, a number of players will be hoping for a blank slate.
