Liverpool boss Jurgen have named another uninspiring team for tonight's Premier League clash with Manchester City, and once gain, he's sh^tcanned all the academy players who've made such progress this season.
FULL TEAM: Mignolet, Clyne, Toure, Lovren, Flanagan, Henderson, Can, Milner, Lallana, Firmino, Origi.
SUBS: Ward, Skrtel, Moreno, Allen, Ibe, Coutinho, Benteke.
CITY: Hart, Zabaleta, Clichy, Kompany (C), Otamendi, Fernando, Fernandinho, Navas, Silva, Sterling, Aguero
* Great decision to bench Moreno. After his reckless performance in the League Cup final, he deserved to be dropped.
* Coutinho^ is also on the bench, which suggests that he's being rested after the weekend's exertions.
* Sturridge is not in the squad, and that's a responsible decision. Three days is clearly not enough recovery time for a player who - according to Klopp - 'couldn't walk' after Sunday's final. Hopefully, he's just being rested, and is not injured.
* No room on the bench for Smith, Brannagan, Teixeira, or Chirivella? Absolutely pathetic, and makes a mockery of Klopp's supposed commitment to youth development.
* Lovren returns to the starting lineup, and with Skrtel also on the bench, Liverpool's central defensive options are looking stronger.
* Can and Lallana in the team again? Ugh. Caulker is not even in the squad, which once again begs the question: why sign him in the first place?
* Meanwhile, City have put out a very strong team, with only notable absence being Yaya Toure, who is injured.
Probable formation:
--------------- Mignolet
Clyne ---- Toure ---- Lovren ----- Flanagan
------- Hendo -- Can --- Milner
-------- Lallana --- Firmino
--------------- Origi
