'That's absolute b******s' - Klopp blasts reports of Champions League expansion

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has proclaimed his staunch opposition to the expansion of the Champions League, professing his concerns of the dangers of an increased fixture pile-up.

The Reds are reportedly one of a number of leading Premier League outfits backing plans for a restructure of Europe's leading competition in a move that could mean more games for the continent's elite teams.

Any such move would see the current six group games increased to 10 per side, with participants likely to earn a major earnings boost, albeit with domestic schedules likely to be significantly altered to make way for such changes.
