Coutinho, Firmino, Lallana and Sturridge all likely to be out

Yup. sturridge is the only ine missing out there.

The rest were always going to be rested.

Origi and mane to start... after that... who knows. its a qf so it has ro be a decent side imo.

Back 5 should pick itself imo but klopp could pick several reserves like moreno and mingolet and lucas.

Can and henderson should be auto picks but stewart might unfortunately come in

Doubt Mane will start.
 
Has too.

Name 3 forwards to play 433 without him.

We have 2 seniors right now... if Firmino doesnt make it like... so.... i dunno who do you think will play

Youth players?

We changed all eleven in the last round despite coming up against Spurs!
 
If Studge doesn't shake off his issue in time for this game, then maybe Mane will play in his place.
Clyne may also be the only regular 1st XI starter that plays (if not, TAA may get the nod..)
We played a "weakened" XI against Prem opposition, no disrespect, but I can't see Klopp picking a side stronger than that against Leeds!

Possible line-up..

---------------------- Mings..
-------- Clyne - Lucas - Klavan - Moreno
----------- Grujic - Steward - Gini
------------ Mane - Origi - Ejaria

Not sure if just sticking a Steward in there is the right thing to do but would be happy with others

Spurs changed 10 of theirs as well.
Leeds will be really up for this, I think if we play too much of a scratch side we might come unstuck.

I realise that but Klopp didn't know that before picking his side.
 
Im guessing Sakho wont get a game. so id go with

Gk: mig
Rb: clyne
Lb: moreno
Cb: klavan
Cb: gomes
Mf: lucas
Mf: grujic
Mf: can
Lf: ejaria
Cf: oriji
Rf: mane

Personally I would play sakho and gomes at cb

True. All I'm saying is that we may not have won that game if they too hadn't put out a second string. Leeds won't do this, and they'll really want our scalp.
