Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was delighted with Stefan Bajcetic and Cody Gakpo for victory over Everton.

Bajcetic was named man of the match, while Gakpo scored his first goal for the Reds in the 2-0 win.

On midfielder Bajcetic, Klopp told liverpoolfc.com: "Pretty good... and we put him on a new position; you have to ask him actually, I don't think he ever played the position before. He came here as a kid as a centre-half, played now the six for us in a few games and tonight as an eight and in a lot of moments a double-six, did extremely well. It was quite a good performance, to be honest."

On Gakpo, he also said: "A good performance as well. The way he set up the chance for Darwin [Nunez], he had other moments like this where he came out under pressure and then there was a foul and we got a free-kick. He did extremely well under massive pressure in the centre. In the end, it was not the most difficult goal he ever scored, but it is exactly the goal each striker is dreaming of when it didn't happen for a while, probably.

"Both goals were, for both players, really important. The next one who could have needed something like that is probably Darwin; the chance he had was a really good one. Anyway, it was obviously Darwin with an insane run for the first goal and a super pass."
