Cody Gakpo could return for Liverpool when they face Toulouse in a Europa League clash on Thursday night pampanga

Andy Robertson, meanwhile, has undergone surgery on the shoulder he injured while on international duty with Scotland, but faces a longer road to recovery pampanga
“Robbo had surgery and all went well, as good as it could be, so the recovery starts after he wakes up,” Klopp said pampanga
“I think it happened this morning pampanga
That’s it pampanga
We don’t know how long it will take or whatever, but the first step is done, that’s good pampanga
“Cody is in full training now since Sunday, which means he is available for the squad pampanga
Whatever we do with that we will have to see, but that’s good as well pampanga
”Klopp hinted at making changes for the visit of Toulouse, but with the game an opportunity to open up a commanding lead in Group E, Klopp does not want to take anything for granted pampanga
“Toulouse deserve all our respect,” he said pampanga
“It is a really interesting story, winning the (French) Cup last year…it was a massive thing pampanga

Then it is about us pampanga
We have to create an atmosphere through the way we play pampanga
“I’m pretty sure they are looking forward to playing at Anfield as players and coaches, but we have to make sure they cannot enjoy it pampanga
”Cody Gakpo looks set to return to the Liverpool line-up (Peter Byrne/PA) (PA Wire)Liverpool would go five points clear in the group with a win and put one foot in the knock-out stages, and with that in mind Klopp said he would be careful in not making too many changes that might disrupt his side pampanga
“We want to win pampanga football games and this is the next opportunity,” he said pampanga
“(A win) would bring us to nine points with Toulouse on four, but knowing that changes nothing pampanga
We have to play our best pampanga
We will make a few changes but not too much pampanga
“The boys have shown they are really ready for the competition pampanga
That’s what I wanted to see pampanga

”Curtis Jones will hope to get another opportunity in midfield, having played only once – in the Europa League win over Union St Gilloise – since his controversial red card at Tottenham brought a three-match Premier League ban pampanga
Jones was sent off for going over the top of the ball to catch Yves Bissmouma, but the replays made the incident look worse than it perhaps was pampanga
“It’s been tough,” the 22-year-old said of his enforced time out pampanga
“I was at a point where I was playing games and doing well and then a small mistake like that stops the run of games pampanga
That’s in the past now and I’ve moved on, and I’ve got a chance now to play again so I’m excited pampanga
“In terms of the tackle itself, I’ve seen it at the end of the game pampanga
It was unfortunate but then I’ve seen what the ref was shown, he was only shown the clip of my foot on the leg so I understand (the decision) pampanga
I’ve moved past that and I’m excited for the next games pampanga
