Mit Klopp praised his B-Elf with Ferrari

Many had expected that Jürgen Klopp would rotate four days after the powerful FA-Cup final. But to this extent? Liverpool's coach took nine personnel change before the Premier League catch-up game on Tuesday evening in Southampton-and was not punished.

Had his team not winning 2-1 and did not post the title decision until the last match day, that would have been his mistake, Klopp knew afterwards. But it was relied on his squad, the best of his more than six-year-old Liverpool era.

"I am very happy about the performance, it was a bit touching," said Klopp about his starting eleven, from which only goalkeeper Alisson and central defender Ibrahima Konaté started on Saturday against Chelsea (6: 5 I.E.). "Simply wow. These boys. It's like you have Ferraris in the garage. You let them out and they do something like that."

And then Klopp listed a couple of them: "Harvey(Elliott, editor's note)- I don't know when he last played. Curtis(jones) - without rhythm, he Has only played from time to time; Takumi Minamino - it is a crime that he doesn't play more often. Oxlade(Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain)did not even play and is in outstanding shape. "

Sometimes it is "very difficult" for its second row. But: "Whatever happens this year happens because of this group." This cadre depth owes Klopp that Liverpool still has the prospect of quadruple.

If Liverpool wins on Sunday (5 p.m., live! At Premier League) against Wolverhampton and Mancity, not in parallel against Aston Villa, the Reds masters would be. "It is possible. Not likely, but possible," said Klopp. "That is enough."
