Two youngsters in line to start for Liverpool against Norwich City in EFL Cup

  Liverpool are preparing to face Norwich City in the  EFL Cup Third Round on Tuesday, September 21. Ahead of the game, it was confirmed that Curtis Jones and Caoimhin Kelleher will start for the Reds against Norwich in the Carabao Cup. “It’s gold for young players, proper gold, because we like this competition to introduce new players - and that’s why I have to say that Curtis, he’s going to start tomorrow and it’s his 50th game for Liverpool. That all started with this cup,” said assistant manager Pepijn Lijnders. Lijnders also confirmed that Kelleher will play in goal and added: “If you want to talk about team selection, you have to understand our way, our identity, our culture - what already started a long time ago. “We want to compete in each game and in these intense periods where you play each three days, it’s really important to, one, protect the players because it’s a high risk to play again and again and again. “And second, if you want to compete in the way we want to compete - with chasing the opposition and having fresh legs and having a fresh mind, having a fresh heart, having fresh lungs - then it’s important that you use energisers, [what] we call them, so players who come in and inspire the others with their game. “So, that’s what we are going to do tomorrow and what we are doing in the last week as well.”   source - LiverpoolFC /  Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
