Andy Robertson believes the goals of Darwin Nunez will be integral to Liverpool ensuring a glorious farewell for Jurgen Klopp this season - as he raised the "unbelievable" impact of Caoimhin Kelleher.
Nunez scored twice to take his tally to 16 for the season as the Reds romped to a 5-1 win at Sparta Prague in their Europa League round of 16 first leg on Thursday night.
The Uruguayan was making his first start in five games having been absent with a hamstring complaint, although he came off the bench at Nottingham Forest on Saturday to head a dramatic late winner to keep Liverpool top of the Premier League.

"We lost him for a couple of weeks but this season he has been unbelievable," said the Liverpool left-back. "No defender likes coming up against him, he can run in behind, he can hold the ball up and now he's starting to add composure to his finishes.
"He needs to keep going and he needs to keep scoring goals for us because that's the only way we are going to be successful this season. He was excellent on Thursday and came through it fine with his hamstring, which is an important thing and hopefully that's him good to go for the rest of the season."
