From last year's example, I don't think Klopp will play too many backup players for the FA cup.
What the f*ck are you talking about?
1. Liverpool's team in the first game v Exeter. In which Enrique played as CB:
34 Bogdan
56 Randall
26 Ilori (Substituted for
Maguire 77')
3 Jose Enrique
44 Smith
40 Kent (Substituted for
Chirivella 57')
32 Brannagan
35 Stewart
53 J. Teixeira
48 Sinclair (Substituted for
Ojo 71')
9C Benteke
Pretty much an entirely rested team, with Benteke the only first team player (and he was out of favour).
2. Liverpool team in the second game v Exeter. Again Enrique at CB and Flanno just coming back from injury as a sub:
22 Mignolet
56 Randall (Substituted for Flanagan 51')
26 Ilori
3 Jose Enrique44 Smith
32 Brannagan
35 Stewart24 Allen (Substituted for
Ojo 65')
33 Ibe (Substituted for
Chirivella 79')
9C Benteke
53 J. TeixeiraSo this time we had Mignolet, Allen, Ibe and Benteke, and maaaaybe Flanno as first teamers. The rest all reserves or youth players. But this was just Exeter, surely we'd play a full strength line up against PL opposition...
3. Liverpool team in the first game v West Ham:
22 Mignolet
2 Clyne
19 Caulker6 Lovren
44 Smith32 Brannagan (Substituted for
Sinclair 86')
35 Stewart24 Allen
33 Ibe (Substituted for
Ojo 80')
9C Benteke
53 J. Teixeira (Substituted for
Jose Enrique 90')
Stronger team but the midfield and attack in particular saw most of our first team players rested. OK, surely AWAY from home against a decent, on-form PL side, we'd play a full strength team...
4. Liverpool team in the second game v West Ham
22 Mignolet
38 Flanagan (just back from injury, barely played)
26 Ilori 21 Lucas (very early on in the 'Lucas as a CB' experiment)
44 Smith68 Chirivella (Substituted for Milner 101')
35 Stewart
53J. Teixeira (Substituted for Origi 59')
33 Ibe
9 C Benteke
10 Coutinho (Substituted for Sturridge at 59')
Or maybe not. And despite that we still nearly knocked them out.
We'll very likely play a few youngsters. Wouldn't at all be surprised to see some of Randall/Alexander-Arnold, Brannagan, Stewart, Ejaria, Williams, Wilson or Woodburn.
