"Peter has been training well and he has played well in the games he has been involved in. I am very happy with him," said the Liverpool boss.

"The fans will see that Peter will bring something different to the way we play.

"When the ball is played up to him he is able to hold on to it and lay it off into the path of players making a run forward.

"This will help our midfield and give them the confidence to go forward.

"But I am also confident that Peter will score goals because he has already proven he is a goalscorer in the Premiership."
