Fans taken aback as Jurgen Klopp names “most ridiculous team ever” for Stoke clash

Jurgen Klopp loves an adventurous line-up.

But even by his heavy metal, unpredictable standards, this is pretty striking. For Liverpool's clash at Stoke on Saturday afternoon, Klopp went all out and when we say "all out" we mean "all out." The German named three centre-halves along with Nathaniel Clyne and James Milner, who has essentially played left-back throughout this campaign. In midfield, Emre Can and Georginio Wijnaldum get the shout while Klopp has opted for the very inexperienced duo of Ben Woodburn and Trent Alexander-Arnold to support Divock Origi up front. https://twitter.com/LFC/status/850694469968166912 Supporters were taken aback by the selection, with some accusing Klopp of fielding a far too weakened side for Premier League level. https://twitter.com/LaurenceCrewe/status/850696098092109826?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.liverpoolecho.co.uk%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Ffootball-news%2Fdidnt-realise-league-cup-liverpool-12866359 https://twitter.com/TheKopHQ/status/850697904729751552?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.liverpoolecho.co.uk%2Fsport%2Ffootball%2Ffootball-news%2Fdidnt-realise-league-cup-liverpool-12866359 https://twitter.com/Bzych12/status/850704493541031937 https://twitter.com/TomRowe1/status/850706373318979584 https://twitter.com/G_Campisi123/status/850706092225167360 https://twitter.com/aaronbolam/status/850705922217455616 https://twitter.com/Yutzy95/status/850705859025960960 https://twitter.com/niallhall92/status/850705848867446789 https://twitter.com/CurtyM90/status/850705742403391488 https://twitter.com/FolaRichard_/status/850705589739114496
