After more than a month out with a knee injury, Andy Robertson came off the bench in the 7-1 win over Rangers to play just over 20 minutes and that was enough to persuade Jurgen Klopp to throw him into the Premier League side this afternoon.

On the opposite side of the pitch Trent Alexander-Arnold remains out and is replaced by James Milner.
