Premier League or Champions League? Jurgen Klopp has answered the all-important question.

The Liverpool boss was asked whether his focus is on European or domestic silverware.

"It's difficult for me to answer the question but for all Liverpool fans it's the Premier League. That's clear," the German manager said ahead of Liverpool's Champions League fixture against Bayern Munich.

"But for now it's the Champions League and we have to do our best tomorrow.

"Thank god we don't have to make that decision today.

"The only thing we can do is give our all and play passionate football. We have to create the atmosphere on the pitch and make it easier for the people. It will be outstanding tomorrow night. There's a lot of power involved in that. I've experienced it a couple of times where our crowd pushes us from 100 to 120 or 140 per cent."

Club captain Jordan Henderson also weighed in on the Premier League or Champions League dilemma.

"If we have to choose, we choose both," he said. "We prioritise game-by-game no matter what competition

"Tomorrow night is the biggest game of the season, then so on and so on. It's how we approach every game and that's what we need to do.

"It's not about favouring a competition. I feel we can challenge in both as best we can.

"At the end of the season, we can hopefully say we're champions of one if not both."
