Jermaine Jenas: Jurgen Klopp doesn't need superstars to be a success at Liverpool
Jurgen Klopp has lost just once game in charge as Liverpool boss
JERMAINE JENAS believes Jurgen Klopp can work his magic at Liverpool without having to sign any superstars.
 
Klopp continued his impressive form since arriving on Merseyside with a 4-1 win over Manchester City on Saturday.
The German has only lost one match in charge of the Reds - a 2-1 defeat by Crystal Palace earlier this month.
Liverpool have been linked with a number of signings in January including Robert Lewandowski, Alexandre Pato and Mauro Icardi.
 
But former Tottenham winger Jenas believes Klopp doesn't need to rely on a big-name signing.
"Jurgen Klopp doesn't seem to rely on anyone, as if it's not part of his plan to have a superstar in his team," he told Yahoo Sports.
"He'll happily take a superstar, or he'll do without - it doesn't phase him either way. And that's an amazing trait to have. 
"For Klopp, losing Sterling in the summer would not have been a big issue - and consequently you would have avoided the circus surrounding the transfer - because he would just see it as an opportunity to buy somebody else and create another Sterling, or someone better.

Klopp celebrates after his side beat Manchester City 4-1 on Saturday
"He doesn't rely on players because he knows he has the ability to transform a player within his system.
"That's what players want: a manager who can make you better, or turn you from a good player into a top player." 
Klopp's men take on Bordeaux in the Europa Leagu on Thursday (8.05pm).
