Defensive shake-up as Darwin Nunez leads the line
Paul Gorst: After just one start all season, it seems Ibrahima Konate is the latest Liverpool player to pull up with the dreaded 'muscle injury'. Anfield sources were still insisting he hadn't been ruled out of today's huge clash with Manchester City, but all the signs are ominous.
Should Konate miss out then the decision then revolves around what happens with Joe Gomez and whether James Milner will play at right-back or not. It also has a knock-on effect with midfield in case Fabinho is poised to return to the centre of the park if Jurgen Klopp was weighing up a three-man engine room once more.
