Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp insists he's not ignoring Joe Gomez.

Klopp went with James Milner at fullback ahead of Gomez for the Champions League win over Genk last night.

But he said, "[Milner was] picked over Joe [Gomez]? I didn't see it like that, to be honest, I only picked Millie. We got the message on Tuesday morning that Trent was ill overnight so we wanted to change as little as possible.

"Millie then, in the way we wanted to play, was the clear number one solution for that moment. But after 15 minutes already it was clear that we would try to change again [by] bringing Joe on. Joe did really well. He looked confident, looked clear, it was good. That was the only reason, nothing against Joe.
