Liverpool’s entire starting lineup from the Premier League triumph against Wolves has been changed.
Liverpool’s manager, Jurgen Klopp, has explained why they altered every starter for their Europa League opener against LASK.
The Reds made 11 changes from their 3-1 Premier League victory over Wolves on Saturday. Ben Doak and Ryan Gravenberch make their complete debuts, and Caoimhin Kellher plays goal.
The players that played on Saturday may have played again, Liverpool boss Klopp remarked in an interview with TNT Sport before the team’s match against LASK in Austria. Since it is still early in the season, we must make sure to utilise the entire roster.
I was interested in seeing today who was out to make a statement and who was just there to have fun. I sincerely hope that’s what we can see. We made the alterations because we genuinely wanted to compete at our absolute best.
