Jurgen Klopp revealed the one selfie he has on his phone is with Lionel Messi and mischievously pointed out that Cristiano Ronaldo was in the same room at the time.

The Liverpool boss is a huge admirer of the Barcelona and Argentina superstar and drew laughs from an audience on an LFCTV Q&A when he suggested he'd snubbed Ronaldo.

Klopp said: 'I have only one selfie on my smartphone. That's with Messi. Cristiano was in the room as well...

In the eternal debate over who is the better player, it seems Klopp's loyalties lie with the diminutive forward.

And Klopp spoke about another legendary figure from the footballing world, Pele.

'My father always told me, whatever people people say in the future, Pele was the best.

'I met him actually, when I was a pundit at the World Cup in 2006. I'm not the type of guy who gets nervous but I was sweating like crazy in that moment,' he admitted.

The German has a dream front-line of his own to work with at Anfield and has steered his side to the top of the Premier League.

Liverpool extended their lead over Manchester City to four points after beating Wolves 2-0 on Friday night.
