Jurgen Klopp makes clear Darwin Nunez decision vs Napoli as Jordan Henderson absence explained

Jurgen Klopp explained why he decided to drop Darwin Nunez from Liverpool's starting line-up to face Napoli in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Klopp chose to make four changes from the Liverpool side which was beaten 2-1 at Anfield on Saturday by Leeds. Nunez, Andy Robertson, Joe Gomez and Harvey Elliott were all dropped to the bench as the Reds boss rotated his side.

Ibrahima Konate, Kostas Tsimikas, James Milner and Curtis Jones were the beneficiaries. Konate made his second start of the season and partnered Virgil van Dijk in central defence as the Dutchman made his 200th appearance for the club.
