Jürgen Klopp is relishing the chance to unleash Liverpool's 'Fab Four' on the Champions League knockout phase after their 7-0 thrashing of Spartak Moscow.

A Philippe Coutinho hat-trick, Sadio Mané brace and a goal each for Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah secured Liverpool's first place in the round of 16 for eight years on a night when only a point was required for qualification.

Liverpool's total of 23 goals in this season's group stage was only bettered by Paris Saint-Germain's 25 and still surpassed the previous record of 21, set by Borussia Dortmund last year.

Klopp's side topped Group E but could still potentially face one of Real Madrid, Juventus or Bayern Munich, who all finished as runners-up in their respective groups.

Yet despite the intimidating set of potential opponents, Klopp agrees that Liverpool's free-scoring 'Fab Four' will give them a chance against any last-16 opponent.

“If we perform like this tonight, if we are that clinical, then yes,” the Liverpool manager said when asked whether his forward line gives his side a 'fear factor'.

“But we had the same players already and they didn't score, and then it is not that we talk like this,” he added. “It's not a criticism of the past. If we perform like this then it is obviously a threat, 100 per cent.”

While praising the efforts of Coutinho, Salah, Mané and Firmino, Klopp was also keen to highlight Liverpool's strength in depth up front.
