Boss: I'm still confident in Reds' penalty prowess

Roberto Firmino missed the Reds’ latest spot-kick during Saturday’s 3-2 defeat to West Bromwich Albion. It’s the second time the Brazilian has been denied in 2017-18, while Mohamed Salah and James Milner have also been foiled this season.

Nevertheless, Klopp insists he has no doubts about his team’s ability to be ruthless from penalty situations, despite missing six of their last 10.

Asked about the work done at Melwood, the boss replied: “[It is] a lot, really, it’s unbelievable.

“It’s good you ask; the boys, pretty much after each session, are out there and there are still four or five players who think they should take them.
