Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp lists the qualities Harry Wilson must improve at Bournemouth

Jurgen Klopp has given his opinion on Liverpool loanee Harry Wilson's form at tomorrow's opponents Bournemouth.

Wilson has scored six goals this season, just one behind Harry Kane and Mohamed Salah who have both played more minutes.

The Welshman is not eligible to play against his parent club and Klopp admitted he is pleased he won't have to face him.

"I'm happy to be honest that he cannot play against us, his free-kick is a proper, proper threat," he said.

"But we have no doubt about Harry's shooting abilities. His skills in that part of the game is incredible, world class for sure."

Klopp explained that the purpose of Wilson's loan is to improve on the other areas of his game but said he was encouraged by the steps he has made.

He added: "Harry is at Bournemouth to improve all the rest of his game as well so being involved, being decisive, being between the lines, using his speed and all that stuff and he makes big steps there. That's really important.

"They are not on the best run but even there [against Spurs] he scored two goals, nice goals as well, not important enough at the end because they still lost but he kept the game going so good."

Defeats in their last four games have seen Bournemouth drop into relegation trouble. The Cherries sit two points above the bottom three ahead of tomorrow's fixture.
