Michael Owen tells Liverpool's owners to 'run the club properly' with their reluctance to bring a new defender starting to irk manager Jurgen Klopp and cost them in the title race

Michael Owen has called upon Liverpool to 'run the club properly' following their fourth round exit from the FA Cup against Manchester United.

Jurgen Klopp's side fell short at Old Trafford in a 3-2 defeat to their bitter rivals after a stunning Bruno Fernandes free-kick sealed the win for the hosts.

The loss for the Reds has piled more pressure onto Klopp, with his team now claiming just one win, against Aston Villa's youth side, from their last seven matches in all competitions.

The German tactician had made his wish clear that he wanted to sign a new defender this January following long-term injuries to Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez, as well as Joel Matip struggling with fitness.
