Hodgson names young side for Europa League game

Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson made 10 changes for their Europa League Group K clash against Steaua Bucharest in Romania as midfielder Joe Cole made his comeback after five weeks out with a hamstring injury.

Goalkeeper Jose Reina, the only player to survive from Sunday’s Barclays Premier League defeat to Tottenham, captained the side in the absence of the injured Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher.
