'The Etihad performance will be on his mind': Jamie Carragher suggests Jurgen Klopp's decision to make six changes at Chelsea will be partly influenced by performance against Manchester City

Jamie Carragher has suggested Liverpool's sub-par performance against Manchester City partly influenced Jurgen Klopp's decision to make six changes for Tuesday's clash against Chelsea.

Klopp admitted after the 4-1 defeat on Saturday that Liverpool had been 'lucky' not to concede more, criticising his team for their inability to handle City all over the pitch.

In response, he has left out a number of key names for the trip to Chelsea, including full-backs Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson, both of whom came in for significant criticism following the defeat. Virgil van Dijk misses out through illness.
