Jurgen Klopp has revealed he had to order Roberto Firmino to rest during their training camp in Marbella, which was rather less eventful than West Brom's trip to Barcelona.
“He is a pure footballer — he ­always wants to play and work,” the Reds boss said.
“For one session in our training camp in Marbella I took him out. He doesn’t rest, so I have to do it for him.
“He is a footballer and he feels best when he is on the pitch. Hopefully it stays like this.”

In the buildup tto the games, Moyes has bigged up striker Marko Arnautovic and believes he is capable of playing in any team.
"He's got the footballing ability, he's certainly got the self belief I'll tell you that.
"And that sometimes is needed when you're a forward, you need self-confidence and arrogance and he has certainly got that.
"I think that if he keeps form, doesn't lose his focus and doesn't go back to the way he was then he could play for any team. He has shown he can and long may it continue. I am saying it because I want him to hear it."
