Liverpool are on a trip to the Parc des Princes stadium where they will be up against Ligue 1 Champions Paris St-German on Wednesday in a penultimate group match of this season’s Champions League competition.
The Reds, who are on six points from three matches, need maximum points to stand a perfect chance of qualifying to the knockout stage.
PSG, on the other hand, also need to claim all points to be on eight points which will take them to the second position, depending on Napoli’s result against Red Bulls.
This means everything is at stake when both clubs step onto the pitch on Wednesday
As much as Klopp is going to be fully focused on his players’ performance during the game, it is important he keeps a close watch on PSG midfielder Adrien Rabiot.
The Frenchman was linked with a move to Anfield stadium some seasons ago but the Reds failed to capture him.
Liverpool have struggled at the middle of the pitch so far this season, despite their summer signings, Klopp must monitor the 23-year-old’s display against his team tomorrow as he could be the perfect solution to the midfield’s problem.
The central midfielder is a highly rated player in his homeland and he could be the man Klopp has been wanting to see at Anfield, should he eventually make him(Rabiot) cross over to England in January.
Apart from being rated so high by PSG fans, Rabiot is a constant nightmare to opponents attackers as he knows how to snatch the ball off strikers feet.
His efficiency isn’t just limited to the defensive midfield position, he is a versatile player who can play as an attacking midfielder and as a winger.
There have been many calls from fans that Jordan Henderson shouldn’t be starting any game for the Reds due to his recent erratic and shambolic display he’s put on so far.
Rabiot’s performance against the England international on Wednesday will determine whether he is the best man to replace 30-year-old midfielder or not and that’s the main reason Klopp need to keep a close tab on the six-cap France international.
Having spent all his life in his country, a move to England will be a welcome development to the Rabiot and Didier Dechamp – France national team coach
