Dean Saunders has defended Jurgen Klopps team selection at Wolves following Liverpools swift exit from the FA Cup.The Reds became the latest Premier League side to be punished for mass rotation in the third round following a 2-1 defeat at Molineux on Monday night.
2"I find it hard to criticise Klopp.""The Premier League and the Champions League are the targets."Dean Saunders says Jurgen Klopp was right to make 9 changes to his #LFC side last night.Do you agree? pic.twitter.com/OrxupQ7TGQ— talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) January 8, 2019He did come out and say he took a risk. He changed the goalkeeper, the whole back four was different, Lovren and Milner were the only two that were unchanged.Liverpool are currently four points clear of Man City at the top of the Premier League as they bid to secure a first top-flight title in 29 years.Anfield has not seen a major trophy since 2012, and Klopps FA Cup record makes for fairly dismal reading: the club has not progressed beyond the fourth round in each of the last three seasons.

And while Klopp has insisted the changes were forced and he did not disrespect the competition, Saunders believes there is an argument to suggest foreign managers fail to understand the importance of Englands oldest cup competition.Traditionally, in this country, everybody loves the FA Cup, he added.But then you get managers coming over, foreign managers who probably dont understand how important it is, plus the money thats involved in the Premier League.
