Liverpool defeated Rangers 7-1 in the Champions League, with Andy Robertson making his return from a knee injury off the bench.

Meanwhile, Curtis Jones (leg) and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain (hamstring) are back in training.

But when asked in his pre-match press conference if anyone came through the Rangers match and is fit, Klopp said: “We have to see. There are final decisions yet. But, no, we have to see.”

Diogo Jota was due to start against Rangers but was only fit enough to come off the bench. He provided all three assists for Mo Salah’s hat-trick.
