Liverpool took on Wolverhampton in the last 32 of the FA Cup on Saturday and saw the debut of Dutchman Cody Gakpo, who after his great World Cup was signed from PSV Eindhoven.

Reds manager Jürgen Klopp, speaking to the club's official website, praised him and said he would be called up in the absence of strikers Luis Díaz and Diogo Jota (if Darwin Núñez, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino are available). Klopp and a curious statement: "Cody Gakpo knows where the goal is," Darwin's nickname?

"First impressions of him are brilliant. With all these things, injured strikers and things like that, then you see a guy who is obviously a natural footballer on the pitch. He knows where the goal is, he's an encouragement to everyone," he said.

Fabinho on Cody Gakpo:"It's really important that a player of this quality arrived to help the team. We know what he's capable of doing. He did a really good World Cup and in the Dutch league he was one of the best players."

Gakpo is backed by Fabinho 

"Now I think he wants to show he can do the same thing at this level as well, in a club like LFC. We will try to help him adapt as quick as possible and we hope he will be really helpful for us because we need a player like this."Cody Gakpo is not expected to start Liverpool's next game away to Brighton on Saturday as he continues his transition into his new team.
