Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has confirmed Loris Karius is now his No1 goalkeeper ahead of Simon Mignolet.

Karius will continue between the posts for Monday's trip to Swansea.

"It is a difficult job being a goalkeeper or centre-half at Liverpool because no-one forgives you one mistake," Klopp said.

“Obviously since I'm in it feels like 'wow', if our goalkeeper makes a mistake it is a disaster and if any another goalkeeper makes a mistake he is still a fantastic goalkeeper and we should buy him.

“I am fine with our goalkeeper situation. Yes, Loris Karius could have made a save for the first goal against Man City even though I thought it was a world-class finish.

“He is a really good goalkeeper and we brought him in because we wanted him to play.

“There were a few difficulties but meanwhile he has settled as well and there are a lot of really good things in his game which are natural and I like them and now he can show them.

“We changed a lot of positions during the year not only with the goalkeeper but it looks like we have to stick to our opinions for 20 years if we have made a decision one time.

“I changed not my opinion but I changed the situation and that is all. Of course Loris has to deliver and he knows that.

"He is the No 1 and that means he can play a game and can concede a goal against City – it's not that we want that but it is possible – but all the good things I'd like to see again. I saw a lot of good things in the games he played in the last few weeks and that is why he is in."
