Liverpool hero John Arne Riise has questioned the depth of manager Jurgen Klopp's squad.

Jurgen Klopp's Reds suffered a setback last week in their quest to reclaim the top-flight title, losing 3-2 away to West Ham to slip to fourth in the table - four points behind leaders Chelsea.

"I'm a little bit concerned about the depth in the squad," Riise told talkSPORT. "I don't think we have the top, top players when we lose (players). Like last season, when we lost (Virgil) Van Dijk and a few other players, you could see we struggled.

"I'm scared it could be the same this year. When people are injured, suspended or even for the African Nations Cup when we lose some players, I'm a little bit worried that it is where the title is going decided.

"I don't think we are strong enough depth-wise in the long-run with Manchester City or Chelsea."
