Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is tempted to throw Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino into action in Sunday’s Community Shield with Manchester City.
Salah and Firmino both returned to training this week after holidays following their international exploits.
Klopp remarked: “
I don't know yet at the moment. We have to see. I don't say 100 per cent not, but there's a chance they could play. Maybe from the start no, we can't take people off after half an hour!
“We will have to see how they react tomorrow, now training is not about intensity it is about the detail. We need to really prepare the game, Man City is different from all other games you play, you have to play a pre-season game against Man City to properly prepare for facing Man City."
