Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits he hadn't intended for Curtis Jones to take the decisive penalty for their Carabao Cup victory over Arsenal.

Jones struck the winning spot-kick in front of the Kop to secure a 5-4 shoot-out success after an incredible 5-5 draw against Arsenal in their fourth-round tie.

You need to be born as Liverpool, probably, to do that," said the Reds boss.

It was not my idea. I looked and saw the list and he was fourth on it. Divock was on number five, he was on number four.

Then I saw Divock walking to take number four and I thought 'oh... okay! They've changed!' A good situation.

Curtis has no issue with self-confidence. Absolutely he doesn't struggle with that!

It's nice, absolutely nice. I am really pleased for him."
