Liverpool's expected lineup vs Southampton with nine changes for must-win clash

Jurgen Klopp has offered a huge hint about his starting line-up as he juggles his resources for tonight’s crucial game which could decide the destination of the Premier League title.

The Liverpool manager came close to admitting that he will have to gamble his side’s quadruple bid - and any chance of winning the title - by picking an almost scratch side for the visit to Southampton on Tuesday. Klopp indicated that he WON’T play most of the players who put in a huge shift during the FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday. And he completely ruled out playing virtually all who appeared for the whole 120 minutes against Chelsea.

That will mean at least eight changes from the Wembley starting XI for the crucial visit to the South coast, with the manager insisting he must gamble his side’s quadruple hopes with the need to rest players and keep them from being injured before the Champions League final on May 28.
