Should it be Caoimhin Kelleher, who has played most of the minutes so far in the Carabao Cup, who starts, or should Arne Slot go with number-one Alisson Becker instead?
"We never know what the situation is around a final: how fit everyone is, do they need a game, yes or no?" Slot said last month when he was asked about the decision.
Alisson Becker - James Martin
First of all, I love Kelleher.
So while my sentimental side would love a last hurrah for Kelleher (and I’d back him to perform well), Slot should make the call that gives him the very best chance of his first Liverpool trophy
That is Alisson Becker.
Caoimhin Kelleher - Matt Addison
While Kelleher seems likely to move on in the summer and his last appearance was five weeks ago at Plymouth Argyle, this is a matter of principle, for me
While Kelleher has only played three out of five games in the Carabao Cup so far this season, it is his tournament (both of the domestic cups have been)
The Irishman then sat out the first leg of the semi-final against Spurs because Alisson needed a game for rhythm purposes.
If it wasn't for those specific reasons, Kelleher would have played every game in the cup, so not playing him in the final wouldn't be a good precedent to set for the future with Mamardashvili arriving in the summer and wanting minutes
