Klopp on Roberto Firmino's change of position

Mohamed Salah has typically been the most advanced Reds forward this season, with Brazil international Firmino dropping back into a central role behind his teammate.

He had a hand in all three of Liverpool’s goals in the Premier League victory at Vicarage Road on Saturday, sealing the three points via an 89th-minute header - his fifth strike of the campaign.

And, after the game, Klopp reinforced his appreciation for a player he considers invaluable.

The manager said: “He will never come to me because people are saying something is missing and ask: ‘Boss, can I play in my old position again?
