Jurgen Klopp hints at Roberto Firmino Liverpool plan and makes 'desperate' Luis Diaz claim

Jurgen Klopp has hinted that he will leave Roberto Firmino out of his Liverpool squad to face Tottenham this weekend despite the Brazilian recently returning to training.

The 30-year-old hasn't featured for the Reds since a late substitute appearance in last month's FA Cup semi-final victory over Man City because of a foot injury, but was included in the travelling party to Spain for the midweek victory over Villarreal despite not being fit for the game.
