"Trent did exceptionally well", Klopp praises Alexander Arnold's performance

 beat 

2-1 in the Premier League at Anfield on Friday. This was their fourth consecutive league win. They are now two points behind fourth-placed Tottenham.

After the game, Jurgen Klopp praised

for how he handled playing against Harvey Barnes.

"Really good, and not the first time,"

Klopp told reporters.

"It was really good, very helpful and very important in these moments. Very, very helpful.

"I think everybody knows how good Harvey Barnes is in these moments and Trent did exceptionally well. We had a few good performances, really good performances but the majority were not on top of their game, let me say it like this, and that's why this can happen.

"Now we have just two days [before facing Brentford on Monday] and we don't know exactly who can go again and stuff like this."

Andy Robertson and Harvey Elliott both were substituted in the second half due to injuries. After the game, Klopp said that Robertson was injured in the warm-up but wanted to play.

"Funnily enough, Harvey, before the game, injured Robbo a little bit,"

Klopp said.

"In our warm-up game, he hit him with a knee at the hip, so it was a dead leg. He could play but then at one point the muscle closed and he couldn't play on.

"Harvey got a knock, which was quite painful, but when you see the situation because it is clear that's painful, but that's it, I think."
