Also, the Boss mentioned his opinion of his stars, Diogo Jota and Shaqiri:
On Jota:
“He is at the best age, 23, already experienced. He’s a really good boy and a really good signing. We never hold players back at the beginning, they just need time to adapt but I knew it wouldn’t take long for him to adapt because of how Wolves play – intense”.
On Shaqiri:
“Shaq played an incredibly important role for us after a difficult time. It’s good that we have more than 11 in a good shape for us”.
Liverpool injury updates
Jurgen Klopp has told the media that Naby Keita and Joel Matip have returned to full training. On the other hand, Thiago Alcantara did not feature in the session, and Klopp has admitted he will make a late decision on Keita and Matip’s involvement against the Italian club.
Klopp: Joel and Naby trained yesterday. We have to wait until medical department gives us green or orange or red light. We have more centre-halves available than we probably will line up together, so that's good.
