Liverpool are aiming to give the Reds fanbase a memorable day out at Wembley in the Carabao Cup Final 2024, according to Jurgen Klopp's assistant Pep Lijnders.

With just two days to go until the showdown under the arch, the 41-year-old addressed the media.

Take a look at what the Dutchman had to say ahead of the showpiece:

On this weekend's Final:

"Liverpool Football Club is made for major trophies and each year we should fight for them – that should always be the target and that's what we are going to try to do. And now it is a Final, so that's good but let's give everything to win that one, everything on this planet and try to give joy and emotion to the fans. It's not much more than that.

"If you want to describe our football philosophy – Jurgen [Klopp] and me and the club – it's to give joy and emotions to the fans. I'm really happy that we can give at least a Final to start with - that's what you're asking for in the beginning of the season."

On the importance of Liverpool's style of play against Chelsea:

"The most important thing is the way we're going to play there. For me, that's the main thing. We played finals where we lost where we played really, really well and we played finals where it was really even – see Chelsea against [Thomas] Tuchel where five goals got cancelled, I think, in one game.

"We're always close with them, always. We were always close with them – 11 penalties! But special games need special performances, so we have to focus on the performance. Special performances mean that we lift the stadium – we need the fans. We go for it."

On how Academy graduates have played their part:

"The Academy is created to win, to bring players that can win you games, that can win you trophies, because Liverpool Football Club is about this. I think Conor Bradley is a prime example. Trent Alexander-Arnold is a prime example and Caoimhin (Kelleher). That creates a healthy club, and that creates 200 young boys who are training now there every day - Scousers who are 10 years old and wear shirts

"They dream and they hope, and that's down, not as much to the Academy director or the first elite development coach, but that's down to the manager in the end. Because you can have the best academy in the world, but in the end he has to trust then and he needs to create space in the squad and needs to make all these decisions because in the end, he wants to win."

On injury concerns within the squad:

"I think the good thing we always did in the past is look at what we have. It's also good in life to just accept what you have and don't look [at] what you don't have, so that's what we are trying to do. It brought us success in the past, so we try to keep that up.

"With a few injuries, you get young players, you get players who didn't play five games in a row but they can show up now, so that's really cool. This season is a season where we created already three or four new teams in one season – what didn't happen a lot in the last years. It's a compliment for our squad and it's a compliment for the Academy."
