Liverpool line-ups for Man United as Ibrahima Konate and Dominik Szoboszlai decisions made
Paul Gorst - Great chance to sign off on high
The last game for a fortnight offers Jurgen Klopp the perfect opportunity to sail off into the international break in great spirits.
And with his injury issues starting to slowly subside, another visit to Wembley would be the ideal way to head into a two-week international period that is, for a change, largely welcomed at Anfield.
It looks like Ibrahima Konate will lose out on his chance to feature here. Klopp said his withdrawal was precautionary against Sparta Prague last week but the France international has now missed three games as a result. It’s never really a precaution, is it?
Joe Gomez steps in for me at centre-back, having given it some consideration, with Jarell Quansah unfortunate to miss out on a start next to Virgil van Dijk. Conor Bradley and Andy Robertson make up the right and left-back positions, respectively.
Wataru Endo starts as the No.6 with Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister further forward in midfield. All three have had a good week or so and what happens in the engine room will be crucial today.
Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz complete my team. Those three will strike fear into United’s defenders, I am sure.
My team: Kelleher; Bradley, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Endo, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Diaz.
