Liverpool boss ​Klopp pleased with Keita comeback

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was delighted to welcome Naby Keita back into the first team fold.

Keita started in the Carabao Cup against MK Dons, a game that Liverpool won 2-0.

It was a tough clash and the Reds had to do a lot of defending, but they escaped with a win to progress into the fourth round.

Klopp spoke to the club's website after the game and said the following about Keita:

"Obviously he looked good in moments, he looked really good in moments, but he has to adapt to the position again.

"You see it with Ox as well. Naturally you move much more and stuff like this, you find each other much more, but that's how it is.

"He was out for a while, but in moments you saw what an incredible player he is and how important he will be for us.

"We don't have to rush it now hopefully, but we can use him now and that's good, good for us. There's a long season to go and everything will be fine."
