While it also looks like there could be a real chance Liverpool could at least get the bragging rights of finishing above Manchester United, Barnes insists that should be the least of their priorities. This is a good opportunity for Liverpool to get to a semi final of a major competition and Klopp will be eager to give his side a chance of silverware.

Liverpool midfielder Jordon Ibe feels the sky is the limit for his side ahead of Wednesday’s League Cup fifth-round clash with Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium.

Along with the English pair, Klopp is waiting on Coutinho, who’s missed our past two fixtures with the hamstring injury he picked up against Manchester City during our sensational 4-1 victory at the Etihad. “I’m excited and looking forward to the game, but you have to respect the situation”. “Everyone would be delighted with that”.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has stressed that he will play his strongest team in Wednesday’s League Cup encounter with Southampton as he feels they lack the depth to rest key players.

“The quarterfinal is far away from the final”, he said in his pre-match press conference, per Liverpool’s official website.

“He is completely open and he’s young enough to develop, to improve. I thought he’d need more time with the team given the style of his football”.

“Simon Mignolet – I have had a lot of goalkeepers in the last few years and he is one of the smartest I’ve ever had”.

“The biggest fault you can make is thinking you’re already in the next round and it’s “only Southampton”.

However, Sturridge was unable to get a consistent run of games going due to a host of injury problems and the striker has managed to make only 16 Premier League appearances during the last two seasons.

“We know we have the experience from one month ago against them”, he told Southampton’s official website.
