Loris Karius - 5 things you need to know
Karius was handed his Premier League debut on Saturday in Liverpool's comfortable 5-1 win over Hull.
The 23-year-old also featured against Derby in the EFL Cup last week but again was hardly called upon in the 3-0 victory at Pride Park.
And Klopp has admitted Karius will be preferred to Simon Mignolet for the Reds' trip to Swansea on Saturday (12.30pm) so he can get a better look at the Germany U21 international.
"He can play against Swansea again, I already spoke to the goalkeepers, they know it," Klopp said.

"We had a game at Derby, what can I do? He did not have 500 balls, just two or three balls. Against Hull, I'm not sure, not too many balls.
"Of course to understand how a player reacts in situations you need the games.
"We don't have the games in the week so we do it on the weekend and then at a specific point we can make a decision.
"I know the goalkeeper position is different than the centre-half position for example. I know this and I respect this so we'll see."
