Liverpool name ridiculously weak side for Exeter clash

Christian Benteke, Jose Enrique and Adam Bogdan are the only familiar names in the Reds XI, with an army of untested talent tasked with carrying Liverpool beyond their League Two opponents.

Liverpool’s squad has been decimated by injuries in recent weeks, with Klopp’s line-up suggesting he is not prepared to risk any more at St James Park.

Exeter: Olejnik, Woodman, Noble, Ribeiro, Holmes, Nicholls, Moore-Taylor, Reid, Nichols, Tillson, Brown… Subs: McAllister, Oakley, Davies, Morrison, Hoskins, Hamon, Grant.

Liverpool: Bogdan, Randall, Enrique, Smith, Ilori, Brannagan, Stewart, Kent, Teixeira, Sinclair, Benteke… Subs: Fulton, Lallana, Lucas, Ojo, Maguire, Chirivella, Masterson.
