Jürgen Klopp has detailed how Liverpool have allowed Luis Diaz to play naturally in his opening four games for the club, rather than supplying him with detailed tactical instructions.
The forward claimed his first goal for the Reds during Saturday’s 3-1 victory over Norwich City at Anfield, finishing a 34-pass move with a delicate chip over goalkeeper Angus Gunn to round off the afternoon.
It continued Diaz’s impressive start to life with his new club following his switch from FC Porto during the winter transfer window – and the manager used the second part of his pre-Leeds United media briefing to explain why he has been allowed to operate on instinct on the pitch so far.
