“Mo and Bobby have missed games. The problem last year wasn’t just that we lost Mo, but that Adam Lallana who came on was only available at last minute and Ox was injured.
“That made our bench thin. For this team, it’s our first final. Plus there are the players who are experienced [being there before].
“Ali and Fabinho both missed out in the semi-finals. It’s the best team I’ve had going into a final but Tottenham can say something similar.”

Klopp also argued his side have been unlucky in their two previous European finals, saying Liverpool’s performances haven’t entirely been to blame.
“Against Sevilla [in the 2016 Europa League final] the tank was empty in the second half and last year a little bit and we lost Mo as well,” he continued. Last year, a strange first goal, then a bicycle kick. Those goals weren’t down to our performance.
