Liverpool expected XI v Manchester City

|

Emre Can (Central midfield) – The German pass master looks to be on his way out of Anfield this summer, and is reportedly on the brink of signing a contract with Juventus. That should not stop him starting on Sunday however, as he is Liverpool’s best option in the centre of midfield. Retains his place.

James Milner (Central midfield) – Milner is likely to get the nod because of his defensive capabilities. Against such a rampant City side it is important to have enough cover in midfield, and Milner is Liverpool’s best hope of providing that. Retains his place.

Giorginio Wijnaldum (Central midfield) – Klopp is expected to pack the midfield against City, reverting from two centre-midfielders against Everton, to three against Pep Guardiola’s side. That should see Wijnaldum come in alongside Can and Milner. Wijnaldum for Adam Lallana.
