Roy Hodgson is reportedly set to rest some of Liverpool's big name stars for their Europa League clash against Steaua Bucharest at Anfield on Thursday.
Even at this early stage of the season, the fixtures are coming thick and fast with Liverpool facing arch-rivals Manchester United on Sunday.
As a result, the Daily Mirror claims that Hodgson will rest some of his big-name players including striker Fernando Torres and skipper Steven Gerrard.
Hodgson hinted as much last week when he said, "It is unfeasible to ask them to play so many games over what is going to be a long campaign, and unrealistic to believe they can sustain it over a whole season."
The Daily Mirror claims that Hodgson is set to give new signing Raul Meireles his full Liverpool debut while Joe Cole is set to play a part. Paul Konchesky should shake off a hamstring injury to play against Steaua at Anfield too
