Reds not just the 'Fab Four' - Klopp

By Daily Sports on December 9, 2017

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp claims there is more to his side than his devastating "Fab Four" attack ahead of Sunday’s Merseyside derby with Everton.

The Beatles-inspired nickname has been given to the front quartet of Philippe Coutinho, Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane after some eye-catching performances this season.

However, Klopp believes the moniker denies recognition to the talent throughout the rest of Liverpool's squad.

"I said already I have no problem with nicknames like 'Fab Four' but that is disrespectful against all the other players,” said the German.

"We played a fantastic game at West Ham and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was involved.

"We didn't have Adam Lallana so far and I think he would fit fantastically in each group or band in this world.

"Also Daniel Sturridge, Dom Solanke and all these offensive players. That’s not fair on them."

Liverpool skipper Jordan Henderson will be recalled to midfield after he was left out of the team which hammered Spartak Moscow 7-0 to progress to the Champions League knockout stage in midweek.

Klopp insists there were no hiddens reasons as to why Henderson did not feature against the Russians and believes he will be pivotal in the derby at Anfield.

"He is such an important player for us," Klopp said.

"I want that everybody respects that Jordan is our skipper because he deserved it, because he is the right man for the job. But even a captain cannot play all the time –- that’s how it is," Klopp said.
