This weekend sees Liverpool take on minnows Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup fourth round. The League One side will play host as the champions of the world visit their humble abode. Here is our predicted Liverpool lineup to face Shrewsbury Town:
Goalkeeper: Adrian
The Spaniard seems to have been given the nod as our cup keeper for the season – he impressed in the Premier League when given the chance.
Right back: Neco Williams
A dominating performance against Everton has nailed down the Welshman’s place in the FA Cup.
Centre back: Joel Matip
The Cameroonian defender has been missing since October 2019 due to a knee injury, we can expect him to be blooded back in slowly – this is an ideal first game back.
Centre back: Sepp Van Den Berg
Having started our cup games against Arsenal and Everton, we can expect the Dutchman to get the nod again.
Left back: Yasser Larouci
Larouci was incredibly impressive against The Ev at the start of the month, he could have some joy flying down the flank against weaker opposition.
Defensive midfield: Fabinho
The Brazilian has been absent since November, he needs the minutes to get back to full fitness.
Centre midfield: Curtis Jones
The Scouser netted a wonder goal to win the Merseyside Derby at the start of the month – he’ll be one of the first names on the team sheet.
Centre midfield: Pedro Chirivella
You can’t ignore the diminutive Spaniard after his imperious domination of the Everton midfield.
Right wing: Harvey Elliott
16-year-old Elliott terrorised Lucas Digne at Anfield, he may grab his first Liverpool goal this weekend.
Striker: Takumi Minamino
The January signing needs to learn the Liverpool way – this is a low pressure environment to do so.
Left wing: Divock Origi
Liverpool hero, my mate Sir Divock Origi.
