Battered them 7-0 without Henderson in the side so same again please reds. We need some quick tempo in that midfield and not players who slow it down by getting the ball from player A and passing it five yards sideways to player B.
Karius is our cup goalie so he starts.
This should be a straight forward comfortable win so I think we can afford to give a few players a rest. I'd take Matip and Moreno out so my back four would be trent, gomez, klavan, Robertson.
Midfield three would be Can, Wijnaldum and the Ox. Ox is surely due a start now, he looked very sharp when he came on against Huddersfield and he wants to play in the middle so lets put him there and see what he can do.
Front three is a tricky one. I'd like to give Salah and firmino a rest too. So Woodburn and Coutinho come in- presuming our magician is fit to play. Sturridge keeps his shirt but Solanke to get half an hour at least in the second half.
