The Reds missed out on the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich, and will instead face Spartak Moscow, Maribor and Sevilla in Group E.
Asked if teams will fear his side this season, Klopp said: "In this moment, for sure. But it depends on our performance. We had a nice sign last night - the first 20 minutes were probably part of the best pieces of football I was ever part of.

"That was really impressive. But we have to replicate this - we have to do it again and again and again. Then we can be successful. That's good news but hard work also."
