Jurgen Klopp has explained his tactical thinking behind the decision to go with a diamond formation in Liverpool's 3-0 win at Ajax.
Goals from Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott were enough to secure the Reds' place in the last 16 of the Champions League with Klopp now set to learn his fate when the draw is made on November 7.
The manager started with a front three of Roberto Firmino, Nunez and Salah but the former was dropping deeper at times as something of a new-look system helped the team secure their place in the knockout stages of Europe's premier competition for the sixth successive season.
