Youth Likely to Take a Backseat Under Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool in 2016/17

Liverpool eased past Championship side Burton Albion in the second round of the League Cup, taking away a 5-0 victory from the Pirelli Stadium on Tuesday night.

The goals arrived from Divock Origi and Roberto Firmino inside the first 22 minutes. A Tom Naylor own goal made it three after half-time before substitute Daniel Sturridge added two more late on to provide the icing on the cake for Jurgen Klopp's side.

It was the ideal response after the disappointment of the 2-0 defeat at Burnley four days earlier in the Premier League.
