Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish is planning to avoid another Northampton debacle when they step out in the Carling Cup tomorrow night.
The Reds take on Exeter City in the second round of the competition and Dalglish says it is vital to get past this stage and not put in a repeat of their third-round loss last season.
"We had a bad result last year against Northampton at home, and we'll do our best to avoid another bad result," Dalglish told www.liverpoolfc.tv.
"We want to do the very best we can in this competition and although there will be some changes in the personnel we put out, the attitude should be exactly the same as it was on Saturday at the Emirates.
"We'll give people an opportunity to play. The training has been superb, as has their attitude and commitment, so they deserve a game.
"But it's not a game we just want to go through the motions for and fulfil our obligations in playing the fixture - we want to make sure we have a chance.
"We're not getting them (other players) involved because we're undermining the competition or we're undermining the football club at Exeter."
