Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has defended his strikers Daniel Sturridge and Divock Origi.

Both frontmen struggled to deliver in the midweek FA Cup win at Plymouth and could find themselves relegated to bench duty when Swansea City visit Anfield on Saturday.

“It's not a worry," Klopp said.

“Of course for both Daniel and Divock it was not a world class performance, but that's how it is.

“They have not lost their quality. It was only this game. Of course in some of the other games they were not at their best too, but that is absolutely normal. That's how it is. We can not give everybody the rhythm.

“Being injured, the changes we had to do, Daniel was back after injury, Divock was in and then out, so that's how it is with human beings. But I see them not only in games but in training and everything is there.

“There were only a few wrong decisions in the game and it is not too good but they're still all absolutely on the right way."
