Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is welcoming competition between Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota for a starting place in their attack. 

Jota continued his fine recent form by netting a hat-trick in last night's Champions League victory against Atalanta and Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson told OTB AM that he feels the Portuguese attacker should start against Man City this Sunday.

"Good performances never give me a headache," Klopp said of Jota's performance in Italy.

"That was the decision tonight, it made sense to use the shape Diogo was in, and because of the way Atalanta plays and defends, it made sense that the skillset of Diogo helps.

"But the world is sometimes really in a bad place when the moment someone's shining, we speak immediately about another player who had played what feels like 500 games in a row.
