Liverpool vs Chelsea - Carabao Cup (3rd Round)

[The_weatherman]

I think we can mix it up a little, we need to keep the momentum and give minutes to players, I think we have just the squad to do it. Mig should get the minutes, we need to keep the morale high in the squad, everybody needs to have a part to play.

[danperkins]

Oh I see where you're going with this, you want us to bin this competition off!

If not then maybe we should see Grabara or the Irish guy?

What!? We have put together a strong squad for a reason, everyone should chip in and play their part... including Mignolet. Let our main lads rest up whilst we have the chance, nasty run of games coming up.

I'm just showing my distain for anything Mignolet related.

[SB]

Or neither?

[SB]

He played and scored a belter for U-23's last week. Why do you think he is injured?

Someone on here suggested he might be injured

[SB]

Chavs not in europe? They will go near enough full strength?

Europa league yeah

[baitman]

Europa league yeah

yeh mate, someone also pointed out my error earlier.

Lots of players there who definitely need to get some minutes here, either for youth development or to get into match fitness. Jones, Solanke, Sturridge, Origi, Keita, Shaq, Fabinho, Clyne, Moreno, Mignolet, Matip, Camacho, Phillips, and then there's the element of us actually wanting to win this game and maintain our form and winning momentum.

It will be impossible to accomodate all those players, and I don't think Klopp will give the chance to too many youngsters. Origi maybe to start and Solanke + Jones on the bench, the rest will be a combination of regular starters and rotation players.

Mignolet - Clyne Matip Gomez Moreno - Fabinho Keita Henderson - Shaqiri Sturridge Origi
Kelleher/Grabara, VVD, Trent, Jones, Solanke, Mane, Wijnaldum

[PTP]

My team would be:

Mignolet

Clyne
Gomez
Matip
Moreno

Fabinho
Henderson
Keita

Shaqiri
Sturridge
Origi

yeah more or less the same for me. Not sure if Klopp would go for it but it's an ideal time to rest the 'stars' and give those guys minutes on the pitch - everyone of them is either fighting to get in the starting XI, fighting to get fit, fighting to prove themselves or trying to establish themselves here.

No point having a good squad if you don't use and at some point all of those players may well be needed during the season so get some game time under the belts is important.

**** competition, but it's such a shame it's against Chelsea.....because deep down we prob want to keep the 100% streak going

Personally i'd live with that side if we lost, providing they gave 100% and it meant we then beat them in the league on Saturday

[greenturnip]

If we don't play some of those 'second string' players it is difficult to see when they will get a game - possibly only after injury. That could demoralise them. I hope we make a lot of changes and give the first-teamers a rest before Saturday.

Ahhhhh I see, you're probably right

[brightred]

He's always right!

[Cormack74]

Chavs not in europe? They will go near enough full strength?

Someone told me Sarri had said something like he would change between 5 and 11 players from Sunday.

Of course he might just be a blagger.

[danperkins]

He's always right!

Klopp confirms Mignolet starts
