That is a strong bench, I'm a bit surprised tbh.

Not anymore it seems from the comment in the shout box.

Well played Shrewsbury, money spinning replay for them.
Let's face it this was our lowest priority The FA Cup with largely different personnel who've not played together in a serious game, that there is a level playing field.

It was a bit strange that Klopp decided to sub on Salah and Firmino.

That means he wants to win the FA Cup.

What does he do in the replay now? Starts his best available XI or put new trust on the kids/fringe players?

Going out at Anfield against a League 1 side would be a major k*ckup, so what will he do?

Klopp says only the youngsters will play the replay

The team that got beat 5-0.by villa will play.

With Neil Critchley managing. The senior players will have a week off.

Yeah, saw that info too a bit later.

That decision does make some sense after all, and also explains why he subbed some first teamers on to try and save the FA Cup run.

Well never mind, we've got bigger fish to fry.

I thought it was strange Klopp was bringing on Salah & Firmino, why risk them, this probably explains it, I still think he should not have risked bringing them on, could easily have pulled a muscle coming on in a cold game which was frenetic at the end.

Surely the likes of Jones/Shaq/Origi/Keita who haven't been regular first teamers and have not played lots of games should be able to play the replay? the replay would do them good to give them a run out?

I think Klopp can fk off with that mentality. Boo hoo you already planned your holidays who gives a [oops], you have a game to play, to represent the club badge, you don't run away and once again give up on another competition. There is absolutely no excuses to just forfeit this competition when we can make a historic season by winning a double or a treble. What will everyone say about our club now? How will the fa react, they could ban us for a few years for example. A lot of bad press will follow this decision, why do we need bad press and negativity in this fantastic season? I think Henderson and the senior players need to tell klopp they will not accept that decision and roll their sleeves up and earn their wages. This has been a flawless season so man up, pick a competitive team and play instead of whining and crying about it. The whole world will have their knives out if we repeat the Villa team selection.
