Liverpool boss Klopp happy with Jones display

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was happy with the performance of Curtis Jones for their 1-1 draw with Burnley.

Jay Rodriguez's 69th minute equaliser cancelled out Andrew Robertson's first half header to bring to an end a winning run stretching back to January, 2019.

On Jones, Klopp stated, "Look, for a player with the creativity and the technical skills of Curtis, it's a good game to play. If the boys around him create these moments where Curtis can then really use these skills – turn, good orientation – our style of play suits him so that he can really be quite impressive, I know that.

"A lot of steps to go for him obviously. But it was a good game, that's true. It's much more difficult for Neco to play on that side against a team who is pretty much there for counter-attacks and set-pieces, but he did really well as well. It was good, just good."
