(Reuters) - Liverpool boss Juergen Klopp said on Friday that it was crucial that Premier League clubs and stakeholders continue to discuss how to improve English football after the controversial proposals in 'Project Big Picture' came to light.

The proposals would have increased funds for the 72 clubs in the Football League (EFL) but also included special voting rights for the biggest clubs in the Premier League and a reduction of teams in the top flight from 20 to 18.
