Aston Villa v Liverpool

This will be a challenging game as Villa are still fighting for a CL place (though they look nailed on to me) but Liverpool are safely in third place already. On the other hand, Villa did play the other night. Nevertheless, this will still be a test of the players ability to motivate themselves when there is nothing but pride and the supporters to play for.

Team: I understand neither Jota or Robbo trained today so I am assuming they will be out. Alisson, TAA, Quansah, VVD, Gomez, Endo, MacAllister, Elliott, Diaz, Nunez, Salah though I wouldn’t be surprised if Klopp shakes things up a bit….

A few hints towards the end that he might not be totally onboard with some things that the club or others have arranged for him to do …. He recovered well but is that a sign too that not all has been well behind the scenes? No matter, nothing can diminish Klopp’s impact on the club or his achievements despite what retired play boy and ex part time footballer Rodney Marsh says (1x English League Cup runner-up ; 73/74)
