News about the Liverpool team: Jurgen Klopp returns “very important” star; predicted starting lineup vs Fulham

After resting a number of important players for the Europa League victory over LASK in the middle of the week, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp may start with his preferred lineup against Fulham. The toughest decision facing Klopp will be whether to stick with Cody Gakpo, who scored two goals in Europe on Thursday, or go with Darwin Nunez, who is considered “super important.” Express Sport has proposed Liverpool’s lineup for the match at Anfield.

 

Due to Alisson Becker’s injury, Caoimhin Kelleher will make an unusual Premier League debut. The Irishman has only made five appearances in the Premier League; he has established himself in the national cup competitions.

If Kelleher plays well against Fulham, he can give Klopp a worry.

 

Gomez, Van Dijk, Konate, and Alexander-Arnold are the defenders.

 

Due to Andy Robertson’s injury, Gomez will probably get an opportunity to shine at left back. Last weekend, Kostas Tsimikas struggled against Manchester City, but Gomez played well against LASK.

 

 

One of the six modifications to the rotating squad that competed on Thursday is the addition of Virgil van Dijk. Gomez and Konate might be the only defenders to maintain their positions.

Mac Allister, Jones, and Szoboszlai are midfielders.

 

Because of his summer makeover, Klopp has the luxury of starting a different midfield for Liverpool’s Europa League matches. Harvey Elliott, Ryan Gravenberch, and Endo Wataru took the field in midweek, giving the Reds’ starting three a much-needed break.

 

Curtis Jones, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Alexis Mac Allister will probably be brought back into the middle of the pitch. Following his summer transfer to Liverpool, Gravenberch is starting to flourish there, causing Klopp yet another headache.

 

 

Forwards: Nunez, Diaz, Salah

 

Despite Gakpo’s two goals against LASK, Klopp hinted on Friday that he will keep Nunez in the middle of his forward three.The German stated that he has “no choice” in the situation, giving Gakpo a dire warning by implying that Nunez is now his first-choice center-forward in the Premier League.

 

Darwin is experiencing greatness right now, and that hasn’t changed. This is crucial for us. It has nothing to do with anything else that he didn’t start [on Thursday]. It’s amazing that Cody scored twice now, Klopp remarked.

 

Does that imply that he must play each of the next five games straight? Additionally, other players score. Cody doesn’t expect [that] right now since it isn’t about that.

“They want to score, that’s their job, but it’s not like I’m having sleepless nights now and I don’t know who to start with. To be honest, there isn’t really much of a choice.”
