Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says his style of play allows forwards to become consistent scorers.

Sadio Mane departed the club after six years this summer, ending his fearsome partnership with Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah.

But Klopp is confident Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota can help fill the void.

"It's the way we play, it's the way we played, it's the way we bring the boys in the situations," Klopp told the club's website.

"Of course, it's about, 'Is it in yourself or not?' But it's the way we play, with how we position the players, how we protect the players, where we win the balls back and all these kind of things, how the boys can use their speed in these moments when we win the balls back and these kind of things.

"That's why they will be in a lot of goalscoring situations and that makes you then the player we remember when you look back. You're right, Sadio scored three against us, I think, when he played for Southampton but it was not that he scored every week – he didn't even start the game when he scored the three against us.

"So the consistency came with the confidence, with the teammates, with the structure of our game and all these kind of things. That's what we are working on, so that doesn't change.

"The way we play should help strikers, the way we play should help defenders, last lines, because everybody's involved in that as well, so that's how it is.

"That's as well a little bit why very often midfielders are seen, 'Yeah, but they don't score often enough and they do that' because they keep all the things together. That's how it is. That's it, we will see. But the potential is there for sure."
