Alisson Becker has revealed how Liverpool's dressing room is reacting to a "tricky season"
Klopp's side are on a four-match unbeaten run and could move into fifth place with victory at West Ham United on Wednesday evening
And Alisson said: "The spirit in the dressing room is one of fighters. It has been a tricky season for us, because we are used to always flying. In the past, everybody's been used to seeing us flying but this is a different moment we are living. We have to deal with things. We are doing that, we are fighting but we have to fight even more and use the qualities we have.
"Sometimes we have caused the problems that we have had on the pitch by not playing well, but at the same time we are the solution too, so it's not as big a problem as it looks because we know what we can do and what we are capable of. We're going to show that we can fight for great things still in a Liverpool shirt."
This season's underachievement has prompted discussion in some quarters over Klopp's long-term future. Alisson, though, is adamant the squad are unequivocally behind the manager.
Alisson on Klopp
"Having him with us is massive," said the goalkeeper, speaking to the official Liverpool matchday programme. "We trust in him. The club trusts in him and that's what the team needs to get out of a tricky situation. So we're going to fight for him, we're going to fight for the supporters, for everybody - for ourselves, for our families, to reach our targets in the rest of the season.
"I don't think we need to talk about the Champions League. Of course it is our big target but first we have to think about our performances and improve them. We have had Thiago, Curtis Jones and Luis Diaz back in recent weeks which has been important as they give power and strength to the team as well as a lot of quality.
"So we have to think game-by-game, step-by-step, and focus on improving our performances, getting the points and returning to the track of winning."
