Jurgen Klopp explains why Luis Diaz did not play for Liverpool against Burnley.
Jurgen Klopp has explained why he chose to leave Luis Diaz on the bench against Burnley on Sunday.
The Liverpool manager went with a front three of Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, and Sadio Mane, with the latter being a late inclusion after Diogo Jota suffered a dead leg.
Despite making his first start for the Reds against Leicester last week, Diaz was left on the bench as the team grinded out a 1-0 victory at Turf Moor.
Instead, Jota came on for Mane midway through the second half, and Klopp explained his decision to leave the £49 million man on the bench.
Inter Milan's confidence has been shaken ahead of their Champions League match against Liverpool on Wednesday.
As European competition resumes this week, the two teams will meet in the round of 16, with Jurgen Klopp's side traveling to the San Siro for the first leg of the tie.
