Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is delighted having a fully fit Andrew Robertson available.

The fullback featured in victory over Burnley on Saturday.

Klopp said: "Yeah it is, absolutely all of them but Robbo now especially as since we worked together he was never that long out, so for him it was very strange.

"Yeah, super-important, he played a top game. He had now not only the situation that he is coming back but even when he came back we had these kind of different sessions because we play all the time. We don't have real sessions where you can feel the game again, it's small-sided games [with] all the other guys who recover and the few who didn't play.

"When you come back from injury you do different stuff so he needed the last week, three sessions, big pitch, 11 v 11, whatever we did, to feel the situation again. And besides that we had to force him a little bit to just ignore the fact he can't have rhythm and bring himself in kind of a rhythm, and that's what he did."
