Wolves vs Liverpool: Is this how Liverpool could line-up with young talents and fringe players getting starts?
Liverpool get their FA Cup campaign underway on Monday with a third round clash with fellow Premier League side Wolves.
There could be an opportunity for some of the younger players and fringe players to get a look in with some big Premier League and Champions League fixtures to come for the Reds.
As Liverpool are top of the Premier League and also facing a last 16 Champions League tie with Bayern Munich next month, Jurgen Klopp will look to rest some of his star names.
Players like Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane, Virgil van Dijk and Alisson are not likely play from the start.
Central defence could be a tricky area for Klopp with both Joe Gomez and Joel Matip recovering from injury but unlikely to be ready for the Wolves game.
Klopp has already confirmed that Alberto Moreno will be starting against Wolves in place of Andy Robertson.
We could see someone like Fabhino or the highly-rated prospect Ki-Jana Hoever partner Dejan Lovren at the back if Klopp wants to give van Dijk the night off.
Goalkeeper Simon Mignolet is set for a rare start with only one other appearance to his name this season in their 2-1 defeat to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup.
Klopp said: “[He] will play, of course. The goalkeeper position is a different one but Simon, I could write a book about all the good things I could say about him.
“I’m not sure if you saw it before the Manchester City game warming up, he had seven, eight incredible saves. I’m not sure if I’m happy about that, I thought ‘come on, let them gain a bit of confidence’.
“That’s how he is, he’s a fantastic professional, and did brilliantly so far.”
Adam Lallana is also likely to start with Klopp saying he is in “outstanding” shape while Naby Keita will probably play from the first whistle too.
Klopp is likely to take under-23 players Curtis Jones and Rafael Camacho, both of whom have been training with the first team for more than a year now, with him to the West Midlands.
Neither has yet made their senior debut but could be in the squad at Molineux. Camacho is a winger but could be used at right-back while Jones is an attacking midfielder.
But it may be a little too early for academy prospect Ki-Jana Hoever.
The 16-year-old defender has been training with the first team after making rapid progress through the youth sides and while there is a possibility of him travelling with the squad to Wolves, Klopp is unsure whether he will see any action.
“He’s one for the future, of course. But what we will do with him now for the game, I don’t know,” said Klopp.
It could of course be a double bluff from the manager and not wanting to put too much pressure on the young defender.
So, is this how Klopp’s side could line up against Wolves if he does opt to give youth a chance?
