James Pearce has called for Jurgen Klopp to implement a 4-2-3-1 formation during the final few weeks of Liverpool’s season. With the March international break now concluded, the Reds begin a defining sequence of 12 matches in 57 days with a trip to Premier League champions Manchester City on Saturday.

Given Liverpool’s need to claw back the deficit on their positional rivals, Pearce has urged Klopp to be bold with his team selections over the remaining dozen matches of the season. He wrote in “With Diaz set to make his comeback on the left, I’d move Nunez back into a central attacking role and play 4-2-3-1. Cody Gakpo has shown he can play slightly deeper as the No 10 and Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota are options there. “Liverpool need to be bold during the run-in and playing four attackers would tick that box.”



However, in matches where Liverpool will be fully expected to take the initiative, going for broke by starting four attackers could be worth considering.
