Team without Salah and Robetson in it tells me that Klopp placed his priority on CL final and that he will try to get that with all players at their maximum possible fitness point. Could be Robertson is nursing some injury since he was substituted quite early in the last game and I found that a bit strange. There was no talk about injury though. Maybe he rubbed Klopp the wrong way and got the bench?
Salah missing is actually the strange part since we all know he can play 120 minutes every few days without problems. He is not in some stellar form but then surely you try to get him to score more goals and not preserve his fitness for CL final? He is one of those players with natural fitness off the charts and I am sure he wants to play every game.

The focus is the FA cup final on Saturday. I agree the Villa game was hugely important but now City is facing 2 difficult away games in a row (Wolves and West Ham). They play both of these before we go away to Southampton so before that game we'll have a clear picture on what we can fight for.
I expect that City might maybe draw one of these but I don't expect them to lose. That Tottenham game will haunt us, it was a perfect game to put insane pressure on them.
If I had known Klopp would rest Salah I might not have put a bet on Liverpool the way I did,,, made a betbuilder for Liverpool score both halves,,, over 6.5 corners and over 19 booking points. Did not meet any of those
The ref made a lot of bad calls, for both sides I guess? He just did not want to give out yellow cards here and there.
