"When everyone is fit..." - Journalist reveals Klopp's plan for Liverpool's attack once Diaz returns

"When everyone is fit..." - Journalist reveals Klopp's plan for Liverpool's attack once Diaz returns

Klopp faces a selection headache when Diaz returns from injury.

All of a sudden, everything seems to be going right for Liverpool in the Premier League.

A remarkable 7-0 win over bitter rivals Manchester United on Sunday stunned the football world.

It was both Liverpool's biggest-ever win against United and the Old Trafford club's worst competitive defeat for more than 90 years.

Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez all scored twice for Jurgen Klopp's side, while Roberto Firmino capped the victory with an emotional goal - just days after it was confirmed the Brazilian will leave the club this summer when his contract expires.

To complete a perfect afternoon for Klopp, Liverpool managed to keep a clean sheet for the fifth consecutive league match.

Victory for the Reds moved them to within three points of the Champions League places after Tottenham and Newcastle were beaten at the weekend.

Liverpool have a game in hand on fourth-placed Spurs and now look to be favourites for the final Champions League spot, with the Reds also set to be boosted by the return of Luis Diaz in the coming weeks.

The Colombian winger hasn't featured since October after suffering a knee injury in a league defeat to Arsenal.

But he is now nearing match fitness and will give Klopp a welcome headache when he returns, with Gakpo, Salah, Nunez, Firmino and the newly-fit Diogo Jota all vying for a place in Liverpool's attack.

Klopp's plan for Liverpool's attack revealed

According to The Telegraph's Chris Bascombe, Klopp is expected to rotate his attacking unit when they are all fit – unlike in previous years when Salah, Firmino and Sadio Mane were the undisputed front three.

"The Liverpool coach is a matter of weeks from a situation he has craved all season: a selection dilemma upfront," wrote Bascombe.

"Luis Diaz is already in light training and Diogo Jota is edging closer to full match sharpness.

"Neither expect to be understudies when everyone is fit, so attacking responsibilities will be shared more than in previous years. That was the plan in July."

Liverpool will look to extend their winning run in the Premier League when they travel to face Bournemouth on Saturday.

The reverse fixture at Anfield ended in a stunning 9-0 win for Liverpool, which proved to be a false dawn for the Reds after a slow start to the season.

Klopp will be hoping the thumping win over United doesn't turn out to be the same.
