Klopp explains Liverpool rotation as Salah and Firmino are benched

Liverpool 5-2 Everton

  • Goals: Divock Origi (£5.2m) x2, Xherdan Shaqiri (£6.3m), Sadio Mane (£12.2m), Georginio Wijnaldum (£5.4m) | Michael Keane (£5.3m), Richarlison (£7.8m)
  • Assists: Mane x2, Dejan Lovren (£5.3m), Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.3m), Roberto Firmino (£9.4m) | Bernard (£6.4m)
  • Bonus: Origi x3, Mane x2, Wijnaldum x1

Sadio Mane (£12.2m) put in a season’s-best performance as Liverpool crushed Everton in the Merseyside derby.

The 41.3%-owned midfielder scored one goal and set up two more to bring in 15 points – a tally which matched his output from the Gameweek 5 mauling of Newcastle United.

Mane was virtually unplayable during a first half of breathtaking goals and dodgy defending, producing a fifth haul in six Gameweeks, two of which have involved double-digit returns.

In the process he became the second player, behind Jamie Vardy (£9.9m), to breach the 100-point barrier in Fantasy Premier League (FPL) this season. And yet, somehow, he actually suffered a net transfer loss heading into the derby, with over 40,000 managers offloading him (a net loss of 3,381).

That surprising statistic likely owed much to the kneejerk reaction to his blank in Gameweek 14.

The prescient amongst us may have even been worried that Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would rotate his squad. And that he duly did, making five changes to the side which had seen off Brighton 2-1 on Saturday.

The key moves involved two of the team’s exalted front three, with both Mohamed Salah (£12.2m) and Roberto Firmino (£9.4m) benched and replaced by Divock Origi (£5.2m) and Xherdan Shaqiri (£6.3m), who made his first start in seven months.

Salah has struggled for fitness and form since, let’s just say, a ‘typically robust’ challenge from Leicester City’s Hamza Choudhury (£4.4m) damaged his ankle in Gameweek 8. Reports have also suggested a breakdown in the relationship between manager and star, but Klopp was naming few names when he explained his decisions before kick-off.

The Liverpool boss said:

One change we had to do in Adrian for Alisson, and the other four we wanted to do, just to respect the game, to respect the intensity of the game first and foremost. I have to show the respect for the boys and I’ve said a lot of times how much I like the squad and now we have to use it. We think the game will be really intense and for this you need kind of fresh legs and we try to bring them in.

Also coming in were Adam Lallana (£5.8m) and James Milner (£5.3m). All four outfield players justified their selections, but it was Origi and Shaqiri who really caught the eye.

The Belgian striker opened the scoring when he ran on to Mane’s exquisite through ball, rounded the on-rushing Jordan Pickford (£5.4m) and rolled the ball into the empty net.

Shaqiri then doubled the lead from a sublime counter-attack. Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.3m) pinged a cross-field ball of venomous accuracy to Mane, who controlled it with nonchalance, rode a foul challenge and raced to the edge of the Everton area before releasing the Switzerland international to score with a first-time shot.

At that stage, beleaguered Everton manager Marco Silva’s decision to field a back three of Michael Keane (£5.3m), Yerry Mina (£5.3m) and Mason Holgate (£4.4m), with Lucas Digne (£5.8m) and Djibril Sidibe (£5.3m) as wing-backs, lay in tatters.

Time and again, Liverpool launched long balls from deep to exploit the space behind the centre-halves – a tactic which led to Origi’s second goal, and Liverpool’s third, when he expertly brought down a Dejan Lovren (£5.3m) punt and lobbed the stranded Pickford

But by then, Everton had somehow found a foothold in the game, Keane latching onto a loose ball in the area and smashing the ball home to make it 2-1 and usher in a brief period of supremacy for the visitors.

That also meant an eighth-straight Gameweek without a clean sheet for the Liverpool backline as Fantasy managers once again had to hope for attacking returns from their big-ticket Reds defenders.

This time it was the turn of Alexander-Arnold (who picked up his fourth booking of the season last night) to deliver when he burst forward on the counter and teed up Mane to sweep home from the edge of the area.

That concluded the home side’s scoring in the first half, although Everton were still not done.

Silva had ditched his initial defensive plan when Liverpool went 3-1 up, reverting to a back four by bringing on Bernard (£6.4m) for Sidibe, who had been tormented by Mane’s movement and skill for 35 painful minutes.

The move didn’t stem their opponents’ attacking menace, but it perked up their own offensive threat and they made it 4-2 deep into stoppage time at the end of the half when Richarlison (£7.8m) headed home emphatically from a Bernard cross

The midfielder-turned-striker now has three goals from his last four starts – a rare bright spot in a dark time for the Toffees, with the next three fixtures (CHE, mun, ARS) unlikely to lighten the mood even if Silva is finally shown the door by the Everton board.

The manager was not to be drawn on his future post-match, saying:

I am not the right person to answer about the situation, this question is for different people. We are making some mistakes which put us under big, big pressure. The type of mistakes we are making is because the players are playing under big pressure because of the position in the table.

He was certainly not helped by most of those players at Anfield.

The defence was a disjointed mess exaggerated by Pickford’s questionable positioning, while captain for the night Gylfi Sigurdsson (£7.4m) produced a display of almost laughable anonymity, with the central midfielder’s 28 passes on the night equalled by Reds goalkeeper Adrian.

But Silva’s tactics and selections are as much to blame for those mistakes, transforming an ostensibly strong squad into a collection of brittle and confused individuals.

The two goals aside, the sole positive note for Everton on the night was that Liverpool only won 5-2, with Georginio Wijnaldum (£5.4m) scoring late on after being teed up by substitute Firmino.

Then again, even that was actually down to Liverpool’s profligacy, with Mane, in particular, spurning two glorious chances to turn his night from superb into sensational.

Christmas came early at Anfield last night – for more reasons than Everton’s generosity.

Klopp’s major rotation of the squad gave the fixture a decidedly festive feel, as he was at pains to point out post-match.

The Liverpool manager said:

It was always clear this period now of the year is where we need all of the boys and I hope they will then be in the shape like Shaq and Div tonight, or Adam (Lallana) tonight. It’s really important and gives us the feeling that we can do it more often – and we will do it more often.

So perhaps nobody is now safe from a place on the Liverpool bench as the games come thick and fast over the next few weeks.

Would Klopp risk benching the in-form Mane at present, though? The Senegal international has started every league match since Gameweek 2 and has only gone more than one game without a return once all season.

A Gameweek 18 blank when Liverpool take part in the FIFA Club World Cup might prompt some to sell him on.

But where Salah was once the undroppable driver of the Reds’ attacking juggernaut, Mane is now the man behind that particular wheel, and ignoring him is to play a very perilous game indeed.

Just ask the thousands who tried it this week.

        Id like to disagree here. That City defence is horrid.

        City should still be the favorites but i think the United boys have some bite as well. Wont be a rout thats for sure

    2. Threat Level Midnight

      Marcus. Not only injury risk with Tammy but he is consistently hauled off before the 75th.

      It depends how you feel about making another move later on. The one keeper strategy suits Ryan best imo. But all good. I did a post yesterday on their fixtures up until gw30. In terms of good vs bad fixtures I believe Guaita came out top.

      1. Rhodes your boat
        • 7 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Thanks anzhi saw your post! It’s a tough choice but might go for Guaita, just wish he was cheaper!

        1. Fpl Richie
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          If I was in a better position with cash I'd do that. But I'm split on the other two - think Ryan is a little overlooked here at the moment because of being a save/bonus type over Cs. Understandable of course.

        So do I

  9. joeydelucchi
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Right guys, Captaincy discussion Mane or Son or KDB

    I know you can all direct me to the captaincy poll but what are peoples views on Mane being benched?
    Will he :

    a) Play
    b) benched and come on for a cameo
    c) rested completely

    let me know your thoughts

    Depending on this i will make my choice
    if answer is b or c then i'll probably go Son.

    1. Jullepuu
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I wouldn't C Mane this week. Vardy and Son/Alli beter options imo

    2. Letsgo!
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I wont capt mane but he wont be rested i feel

    3. Scholes Out For Summer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Im going Son

    4. Joss Ackland’s Spunky…
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I’m really tempted to go KDB. I have Mane, Alli, VAJ. I just reckon it’s the kind of game he’ll haul in.

  10. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Call me crazy but with threat of rotation looming, could KDB (c) be a good punt this weekend? I do understand he is also a rotation threat but in a big game i cant see him getting rested

    1. Christina.
      • 14 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Nah. not for me.

      1. DAZZ
        • 9 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Understandable, it is a risk, why not though? Purely because of other options? Man City could hammer Utd

        1. Christina.
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Other options.

    2. Letsgo!
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Nah have him is enough, not for capt

    3. Jullepuu
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Could be good..still not gonna do it though

    4. Joss Ackland’s Spunky…
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      I’m tempted by this. It’s not going to end nil-nil that’s for sure.

  15. beetlejuice

    I have to replace Janmaat. Best alternative (for 4.3) is Kelly right? Any other options?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Kelly is safe. That Man Utd full back might get gametime in easy games.

  16. Gentle_Turks
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Will Lampard do a press conference before deadline? Hoping for some news on the Abraham injury.

    1. Bubbles1985
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      The scout tweets say it doesn't look too bad...

      I'm gambling he will be ok as I'm taking a hit elsewhere to bring in Alli!

  17. Strchld
    • 7 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Tempted to captain Salah. Surely he have to start a next game..
    Anyone else?

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      With my rank taking a massive hit, I’m undecided

    2. iL PiStOlErO
      • 4 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Could be gold.

    3. El Lobito 10
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Me too. I'm doing Mane to Salah and possibly back again next week

              Ha yep mate, it does give me a nauseous feeling, but something is telling me to go for it, will see

                Good luck then.

            If Liverpool lose they're out of the Champions League. Surely that game is more important than Bournemouth with an 8 point lead.

            1. El Lobito 10
              • 6 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              My thoughts but Klopp sometimes plays players without rests. I'll probably do it, like a pulse-racing decision

    4. El Lobito 10
      • 6 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Also his record v BOU is amazing

    5. DaisyDaisyDaisyDaisy
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      at 400k probably time to gamble so if i get indication he starts why not...

    6. I Member
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      If I owned him I would captain him but I don't so I'm going Vardy.

    7. InSaneMan-e
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Yes tempted. But since I'm keeping Kane for this game might go with him instead

    8. MIGHTY JOE

      I’m also thinking about it!

    Best midfielder max 7.7 to replace Martial?

    Current mids -Son KDB Mane Martial (Nakamba)

    A Mads
    B Pulisic
    C Graelish
    D Other?

    1. Free Hat
      • 5 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Maddie has good fixtures.

  19. Mackans
    • 6 Years
    4 years, 3 months ago

    Is it worth taking a hit for Martial to Son (-4)?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Go Alli instead

    2. InSaneMan-e
      • 10 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      Given martial is injured yes.
      Or Ali.

  20. Holmes

    Going through tweets, some were saying that Mount and few other CHE players were ignoring Pulisic yesterday as well as on Saturday. Any truth in that?

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Haven't seen the past few Chelsea games but when pulisic was firing he was incredibly greedy, but he was delivering so that usually doesn't piss teammates off too much

      • Free Hat
        • 5 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        If mount and tammy decide to only play to each other, thats fine by me!

      • Old Man
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 12 Years

        I hadn't heard that - worth knowing if it's true. I hope Frank stamps on it otherwise he'll have to go.

      3. Free Hat

      4. George Agdgdgwngo
        • 14 Years

        yep. Just deciding if its worth an 8 point hit to make it happen before being priced out.

      5. InSaneMan-e
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Yes but sure for upcoming week with city away and potential abraham injury

        I want them to concede, but Lund to score. Many ppl with double up, as well as in my mini league.

      3. Joss Ackland’s Spunky…
        • 5 Years

        No. I’ll take the points please

        Clean sheet for SHU for sure. Lunds on the score sheet as well.

      5. I Member

      3. HNI

        Is it worth punting on Salah C vs his favorite team bou? The way Klopp said about Rotation it seems Mane will be the one rested on weekend for imp midweek UCL match!

        1. HNI
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          i have both Mane and Salah so even tougher decision

        2. Christina.
          • 14 Years

          how people still own Salah I dont know. 🙄

          1. HNI
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Till Watford H then he is gone for good. Was all set to remove this gw but now he got rested he looks good bet to start weekend

              the player that is averaging 9,85 ppg the last 7 weeks that should have had another penalty last night.

              • 14 Years

          4 years, 3 months ago

          If you still have him now is the time to do it.
          But I dont have much faith in him anymore.

          1. HNI
            • 10 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Will give it a go as owning is differential enough...anyway have low hopes of good captaincy as got badluck in captaincy switching at wrong times between Mane and Vardy and before it was Salah/Sterling :/

            1. Free Hat
              • 5 Years
              4 years, 3 months ago

              Same here. Too many Salah Sterling cptcies.
              Just got rid of Salah btw. Difficult with bou and wat up next, but for 12mil you want a certainty of 90minutes and cpt material.
              GL this weekend!

              1. HNI
                • 10 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                I was tempted with Salah to Alli but I learned from my last season mistake of removing Salah before Bou. Plus Bou are worse defensivly thi season

                1. Free Hat
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  Did exactly the same last year before Bou 😀
                  But now Alli plus Tammy is much better imo than Salah Connolly

                  1. HNI
                    • 10 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Tammy got suspected knock vs AVL and he was keen to play that one due to history. They still have to win mid week game in UCL plus Bats/Giroud are fit and ready to go

      4. InSaneMan-e
        • 10 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Any recommendations for best mid for 7.7? (Martial replacement).
        Was thinking pulisic but not sure given mounts performance

        1. HNI
          • 10 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Try getting Alli. i did Mount to Alli by downgrading Montoyo to Kelly

      5. George Agdgdgwngo
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Any sign of potential 4.0m or 3.9m defenders ever getting a game?

        1. FPL Daniel
          • 14 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          Kelly and Rico back in the days

          1. George Agdgdgwngo
            • 14 Years

            nothing else?

          2. Jullepuu
            • 4 Years
            4 years, 3 months ago

            Lundstram back in the days

        2. Free Hat
          • 5 Years
          4 years, 3 months ago

          dont think so. Kelly cheapest alternative

      6. FPL Daniel
        • 14 Years
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Anyone knows Sheffield United defense EO? Is it above 100%? Meaning that with a CS us only Lundstram owners loose?

        Please advise.
