Jurgen Klopp is faced with perhaps the most difficult team selection of his time in England so far as the injury-hit Reds travel to Exeter City for an FA Cup third round tie on Friday night. Liverpool's depleted squad has simply been unable to cope with the demands of a busy winter fixture list.
Klopp lost Philippe Coutinho and Dejan Lovren to hamstring injuries during the gritty 1-0 Capital One Cup win over Stoke City at the Britannia on Tuesday, while Kolo Toure ended the game with severe cramp and has since been ruled out of the Exeter game.
