Diogo Jota, picked ahead of Roberto Firmino, scored a hat-trick in Liverpool's 5-0 win Champions League win over Atalanta.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp insists Diogo Jota’s sensational form has not given him a headache when it comes to breaking up his established front three.

Much of the success Klopp has had, winning the Champions League and the Premier League, has been down to the way Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino have combined on the forward line.

However, Firmino was dropped for the 5-0 Champions League win against Atalanta in Bergamo to make way for the in-form Diogo Jota and the new signing seized his chance with a hat-trick.

“All the performances of my team tonight was good and that is why we won the game, the result is not that important, we just wanted to win.”

Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini admits their defensive problems are a cause for concern.

“We struggled with the pace of the game. Let’s see the next games, we have time to work on ourselves,” he said.

“We are conceding too much lately and scoring less, we didn’t run enough and not well enough – all things we must work on.”
