Fans can listen to talkSPORT from 8pm for live commentary from the Wanda Metropolitano – a game which is four years in the making for Klopp.When Brendan Rodgers was sacked in October 2015, the Reds were at their lowest ebb for some time.

Saturday night represents a shot at redemption for Klopp and his side, with the majority of the starting XI likely to have started the defeat against Real Madrid 12 months ago in Kiev.But, for those who cannot remember, talkSPORT.com has delved into the archives to find Klopp’s first ever team as Liverpool manager.Scroll down and prepare yourself for what you are about to witness.Jurgen Klopp’s first ever Liverpool side is not exactly filled with talentbuildlineup.com3

Also on the bench that day were Adam Bogdan, Kolo Toure and Jerome Sinclair – a far cry from the squad depth the former Borussia Dortmund boss now possesses.With Roberto Firmino passed fit for the final against Spurs, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah will complete a scintillating trio up front, with a far more solid defence at the back too. Alisson has been instrumental in getting the Reds this far, whilst Joel Matip and Virgil van Dijk have also played spectacularly well throughout the season.Whatever happens on Saturday night, Klopp can be proud of the evolution he has helped Liverpool undertake from those dark days.
