Liverpool FA Cup final team vs Chelsea predicted as Naby Keïta ... (Liverpool.com)

Liverpool take on Chelsea in the FA Cup final at Wembley later today. Here, three of our writers select the starting XIs we would like Jürgen Klopp to ...

Meanwhile, Thiago Alcântara is a shoo-in and alongside him Naby Keïta, will have an important role to play — this time at least he will be prepared and expecting to start as well, unlike in the Carabao Cup final. Ibrahima Konaté and Kostas Tsimikas have made a strong case to start in recent weeks, but I expect Liverpool to go with the experience of Joël Matip and Andy Robertson instead. There will be no headaches for Jürgen Klopp in terms of match selection heading into this final. However, Matip has done nothing to lose his place, and the concentration and nous of the senior option should be preferred on this occasion. Sometimes I'll throw in a wildcard shout for the sake of manufacturing some disagreement with Matt, but it's hard to look past his selections for the final. Meanwhile, the goals have certainly not dried up for Mané, who has made himself undroppable through the middle.

Jürgen Klopp can continue exciting Anfield evolution with double ... (Liverpool.com)

Jürgen Klopp will look to evolve his side over the coming years, and Liverpool have been linked with summer transfer moves for a pair of exciting forwards.

Both would make good signings for Liverpool, but if we had to chose one, Zaniolo would be the smarter investment, as he’s three years younger and perhaps has a higher ceiling than Danjuma. With a combined value of £70m, a double raid seems unlikely. Zaniolo can also play as a second striker, but this isn’t a role Klopp tends to use in his 4-3-3 system. Zaniolo is still working his way back to his best form following two major ACL injuries and has at times struggled with the weight of expectation since his return. A return of 16 goals in 34 games across all competitions is a very good showing for a player who has spent the majority of the season playing on the left wing. Liverpool have first-hand experience of Danjuma, with the Reds seeing off Villarreal in the semi-final of the Champions League a few weeks ago. In any given week, Liverpool could be linked with a whole host of players in a variety of positions.

Lukaku gets the nod up front, while Chalobah starts in place of Azpilicueta. FA Cup finals have not been particularly enjoyable for Chelsea over the last couple of seasons.

Five things spotted as Kostas Tsimikas and Alisson win Liverpool ... (Liverpool.com)

Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties in the FA Cup final as Alisson Becker, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Sadio Mané and Luis Díaz all impressed.

Milner showed levels of intensity that someone turning 37 on his next birthday should not be able to in the Wembley heat. Apart from that, he was exceptional, up to and including the penalty shoot-out. Romelu Lukaku is a completely different type of player — equally as hard to play against at his peak — but Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konaté largely stood strong. This time, the team in yellow could not stop him from dominating. At some point, the goals will start to flow. Here are the five things Liverpool.com spotted at Wembley as the game unfolded.

10 amazing pictures as Liverpool win FA Cup against Chelsea (Liverpool Echo)

Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties to win the FA Cup on Saturday and there were many memorable moments captured on film inside Wembley Stadium.

While there was a lot to capture and take away from a fabulous afternoon in London, some photos stood out more than others. It was a close match, with Jurgen Klopp's side hitting the woodwork multiple times throughout the course of the 90 minutes. Like in February, it was Jurgen Klopp's side who emerged victorious after Mason Mount's spot-kick was saved by goalkeeper Alisson.

Why Liverpool fans booed English national anthem at FA Cup final ... (Mirror.co.uk)

The national anthem was once again played before the showpiece final at Wembley owing to tradition but Liverpool fans did not react in a positive manner to ...

Thomas Tuchel’s troops eventually managed to get a foothold at Wembley though, with the Reds having been struck down by a couple of injury issues. If they give that sign the reason might be a bit in the past. Some will certainly be questioning why Reds’ fans hold such disdain for the tune but it appears that the booing can be traced back to the 1980s.

We thought we deserved it and were ready to take it and unfortunately we couldn’t. They have built their team over many years and the sanctions haven’t made it any easier to close it (the gap).” They (Liverpool) deserved it as we deserved it as well, and again we lose on penalties.

Even after playing every single possible match to this point (the Champions League final will be number 63) and winning every trophy there is to win, Liverpool are still going. "I played on but in the end, I can’t risk it for the team and I need to trust Joël [ Matip]. Hopefully, it will be fine." Kostas Tsimikas, the matchwinner, replaced Andy Robertson, but that appeared only to be tiredness.
