"Lined up pretending he has Caicedo", "3 points incoming" - Fans react as Liverpool name majorly attacking XI to face Chelsea in PL fixture
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has named a strong attacking side to face Chelsea and fans are intrigued by his selections.
The Reds have traveled to Stamford Bridge to face the Blues in their season opener today (August 13). Both sides will be keen to bounce back from disappointing past campaigns that saw them both fail to finish in the top four.
Klopp has included both new midfield signings Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai in his starting lineup. The Merseysiders are heading into a new era of sorts with regards to their midfield. James Milner, Fabinho, and Jordan Henderson have all left Anfield and it will be intriguing to see how Liverpool fare post their departures.
Klopp has selected Alisson Becker in goal, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, and Andrew Robertson in defense. The Reds look to be without a defensive midfielder as Mac Allister and Szoboszlai are the only two midfielders selected.
The German coach has gone attack-heavy with four frontmen in Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz, and Diogo Jota. Perhaps Klopp is eager for revenge over Chelsea after seemingly missing out on Moises Caicedo to them.
