Asked about the challenges the side face, Klopp told reporters at Liverpool's training ground on Friday: "Which club should I go to, to have a different situation? I could have gone to Bayern a few times, I could have won more titles in my life, pretty sure I would say -- I didn't do it."
"I had a contract here... and that's completely fine. The world is not full of winners, the world is full of triers hopefully. And I try and sometimes I win with some other people together. I am happy with that."
Liverpool are aiming to win the FA Cup for the first time since 2006, having lost to Chelsea in their last final appearance a decade ago.
"It would mean the world to us, that's the truth," Klopp, who signed a new contract last month that will keep him at the club until 2026, said.
He added that they were desperate for FA Cup success but they would savour a remarkable season even if they lose.
"If we are only happy when we are winning in the end, whenever your race finishes, what life would that be?" he said. "When I say 'Enjoy the journey,' I mean it. Enjoy the journey because there have been so many great moments already."
