Manager Jurgen Klopp has seemingly called out the Liverpool supporters ahead of the top-of-the-table clash against Arsenal on Saturday evening.
The German tactician was recently seen trying to get the supporters at Anfield more energised during the win over West Ham United in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night.
There were also concerns about the atmosphere at Anfield during the goalless draw with the Reds last weekend, but Klopp has made a plea to the supporters for Saturday's game.

"I have to say it was long ago that I said it, but I thought in the first half a little bit, when the boys played really exceptional, I was not overly happy, I have to say, with the atmosphere behind me," Klopp said, as per thisisanfield.
"I asked people, 'what do you want?'. We changed a lot of things, we dominated West Ham like crazy, we missed chances.
"If I would have been in the stands, I would be on my toes – 1,000 percent. I don't know if the Man United game was that bad that we have to say, 'oh, sorry we didn't smash them'.
"We need Anfield on Saturday. Without Anfield I would say, they didn't play this week, they prepare for this game and they will be prepared.
"We need Anfield on their toes from the first second, without me having an argument with the opposition coach or whatever. We need you from the first second.
"If you really want, if it's too much football in December, I don't know, sorry, we have to play as well, but if you are not in the right shape, give your ticket to somebody else."
