Jurgen Klopp now knows 9 Liverpool starters vs Man City - and gets message over other 2

We're now at a stage where a Liverpool manager can make seven changes for a Champions League quarter-final and there is barely any mumbling or grumbling from the fanbase.

Elsewhere there might have been some surprise at the sight of just who was in, and who was out, of the side to face Benfica at Anfield on Wednesday evening, but Klopp has reached such a level of complete and utter trust now that it was barely noted by those following his team.
