(Reuters) - Juergen Klopp is the man to lead Liverpool but he will need to get the cheque book out to address his side's lack of depth if he is to recreate the glory days on Merseyside, former Reds midfielder Terry McDermott said. "If you'd asked me in December, could Liverpool win the league, I'd have said yes," he explains. "Then we had that horrible month where we fell apart because of that strength in depth." "When you're in Europe, you've got a better chance of bringing in quality players rather than your second- or third-choice players," he said. Born in Kirkby, McDermott says he "absolutely loves" Liverpool and considers it a privilege to have been such a big part of the club's history.
