Liverpool fans have been left bemused after James Milner appeared to be the Reds captain for less than a minute before passing the armband on. Liverpool marched on through to the Champions League semi-finals after a 3-3 draw with a spirited Benfica side at Anfield.

Liverpool fans have got the jitters after seeing Jurgen Klopp's line-up for tonight's Champions League quarter-final second leg against Benfica.The Reds are strong favourites to win the tie having secured a 3-1 victory in Lisbon last week, but after fielding a team that wouldn't look out of place in an FA Cup third-round fixture, Liverpool fans are genuinely concerned that it might end up being a long old night for them.First-team shoe-ins Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold have all been dropped, while the likes of Joe Gomez and Konstantinos Tsimikas have been handed unexpected run-outs in defence.Elsewhere, James Milner has replaced Thiago in midfield, Ibrahima Konate comes in for Van Dijk, and Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino lead the line (check out the full line-up below)."That's a lot of changes for only having a 2 goal advantage," one nervous fan tweeted."Feels like we're underestimating them," said a second, while another wrote: "I get the need to rotate and keep our strongest fit, but I really don't know about that midfield."Is Jurgen Klopp's line-up too weak? Let us know what you think in the comments section.A fourth fan wrote: Is this am FA Cup third-round game? … Guys see what happened to Real yesterday? … 2 goal lead is nothing they can comeback."Klopp will almost certainly be keen to keep his stars as fresh as possible, especially with Liverpool still fighting on all three available fronts, and an FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City coming in just a few days.And with just a point separating them and City at the top of the Premier League, the title run-in is shaping up to be one of the most nail-biting in history.Let's see if Klopp's risk pays off, shall we?

Liverpool have arrived in Manchester with their big guns in tow ahead of Sunday's title showdown at the Etihad.

everyone says a certain player is 'underrated', then he isn't.

Liverpool midfielder James Milner will be hoping his surname can do him a favour once again at the Cheltenham Festival on Tuesday. The versatile 36-year-old revealed that he had backed 12/1 shot Mrs Milner in the Pertemps Network Final Handicap last year, who cruised to victory with Bryan Cooper onboard to land a great prize pot for connections.Although Milner has no true association with the mare, despite some thinking he may be an owner, one would assume that the former England international will be having a few quid on her in hope that she is just as successful in the Close Brothers Mares’ Hurdle.Tweeting after Mrs Milner’s victory last year, the former Leeds star wrote: “To save me replying to everyone who’s WhatsApp’d me… Yes – I backed it.

Inter had their chances, with the Serie A side hitting the bar through Hakan Calhanoglu with the score still at 0-0, but Klopp's inspired substitutions ensured that the first-leg advantage went to the Reds.The German boss introduced goalscorer Firmino, plus new signing Luis Diaz who showed some nice touches as the Anfield side closed out victory.
