Liverpool face West Ham at the London Stadium on Monday night in arguably their most crucial league match of the season so far.The Reds need a victory to regain their five point lead over Manchester City – who comfortably beat Arsenal on Sunday – and get one step closer to their first league title in 29 years.
1Tonight's team to face @WestHamUtd…Jordan Henderson and Dejan Lovren are out with slight muscle issues. Gini Wijnaldum is out with a sore knee.https://t.co/vsTOHL5cCE— Liverpool FC (@LFC) February 4, 2019However, Jurgen Klopp has named a starting XI which has sparked outrage from Reds fans on social media – particularly for his decision to hand Adam Lallana a place in the starting team.The 30-year-old has featured just eight times in the Premier League this season, with six of them coming as a substitute – and has struggled to make an impact in his few appearances.And it’s safe to say Liverpool fans on Twitter are not pleased with their German manager.Have a look at some of their posts below…
