Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp claims that the Reds aren't the best team in Europe ahead of their Champions League clash with Napoli today, September 17.
Despite having won the Champions League last season, Livepool boss claims that it doesn't make them the best team in Europe.
"There are a lot of good teams out there and you have to prove that constantly," said the German.
"We cannot be the best team in Europe because Manchester City are the best team in the world - that's the same planet, I heard.
"Last season, we were really good. I'm not too sure we were the best team in Europe, but we were really good in the right moments and that's why we won the Champions League."
Later, Klopp went on speaking about what they have learnt from the last season's Champions League.
"Last year, we learned from one game to the next game and we have to use that experience, because if we don't defend with all we have then we have no chance against Napoli. They are so strong," he added.
"They are stubborn in a positive way. They play football, they break lines, they have good counter-attacks, they are creative. I enjoy it when I analyse Napoli. I like to watch them."
Liverpool will hope to start their UCL 2019 with a good note as they are currently leading Premier League tale with maximum points.
