Your morning Liverpool headlines for Tuesday, December 12.

Liverpool could unleash new formation that won Jurgen Klopp the title

Liverpool have reverted to a 4-2-3-1 formation twice in the past week, with such a system helping inspire them to late comeback victories against both Fulham and Crystal Palace.

On each occasion the Reds started proceedings in their traditional 4-3-3 set-up, with Trent Alexander-Arnold operating as an inverted right-back. Yet come the second half, the England international would be pushed into midfield as Jurgen Klopp varied things up in search of victory

A 4-2-3-1 formation is one that the German knows well, with it his go-to formation when winning back-to-back Bundesliga titles and reaching the Champions League final with Borussia Dortmund. It was also his initial system of choice on Merseyside, before gradually adapting and evolving to Liverpool’s trademark 4-3-3.

But he has never been afraid to revert to it in-game when the time calls for it.
