With the myriad changes to Jurgen Klopp's side in recent weeks due to injury, one of the most consistent and secure areas Liverpool have had in this return to action has been in goal, a position that has been well guarded by Brazilian Alisson Becker and Irishman Caoimhín Kelleher, who recently saw plenty of minutes in the FA Cup third round tie.
Just as Kelleher was called upon a few days ago to compete in the second game against Wolves in the FA Cup, now in the Premier League clash against Chelsea the obvious choice of Becker in the starting eleven was unquestionable, but from the substitutes' bench, the possibility of seeing Spaniard Adrián San Miguel was also not an option for the German coach who has preferred to give continuity to the Irish-born substitute.

Despite the fact that Adrian has shown in his few minutes of playing time to be a player of great qualities as a goalkeeper, the Reds coach cannot afford the opportunity to call him to the bench in a game that is of utmost importance in the remainder of the season, being clear during the first 45 minutes against the Blues that even Alisson Becker himself presented some problems to be able to keep a goalless draw in his goal.
The arrival of players like Naby Keita or Joe Gomez is a clear sign that Klopp must trust in the abilities of his players on the pitch, causing this situation that the goalkeeper Adrian San Miguel sees as unfair his non-call-up, and even more when on the pitch the big surprise was the start of Stefan Bajcetic, young Spanish midfielder who had a complicated first 45 minutes where a yellow card conditioned him for the second half.
