Jurgen Klopp offered Xherdan Shaqiri an apology for the winger's lack of playing time after the Switzerland international made his first Premier League start since January for Wednesday's 5-2 win over Everton in the Merseyside derby.
Shaqiri came in for Mohamed Salah and scored the Reds' second goal at Anfield. His excellent performance prompted Klopp to address Shaqiri's lack of playing time, per the club's official website:
"[Seven months] really? Sorry Shaq! He was injured a couple of times. If he could have scored two goals like Divock [Origi] instead of one, I could say exactly the same [as I said about Origi].
