Nunez straight back in: Liverpool fans select ultimate XI for Chelsea game

On Saturday afternoon, Liverpool are playing host to Chelsea in the Premier League.

The Reds will still be without the likes of Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino and Virgil van Dijk - but Darwin Nunez is expected to be fully fit to start the game.

Yesterday, we asked you to name the players you'd like the most to see in the starting lineup.

The most upvoted comment was one by our user Matt Donlevy who suggested having a front four of Nunez, Cody Gakpo, Harvey Elliott and Mo Salah.

The problem is how to position Salah and Elliott as both prefer playing on the right of a front three.

The two options are starting Elliott in the midfield - something that did not work too well in recent games - or shifting Salah centrally into a front two with Nunez to make it a 4-2-2-2 formation. That's what we're going with here.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Konate, Robertson, Thiago, Keita, Elliott, Gakpo, Salah, Nunez
