Rodgers recalls big guns for league game

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is set to recall several players to the first XI for Sunday’s Barclays Premier League match against Stoke.

The Anfield manager shuffled his pack considerably for last night’s 3-2 Europa League defeat to Udinese and will make changes again, with midfielder Jonjo Shelvey certain to drop out of the team as he continues to serve a domestic suspension.
