Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed that he will name a strong lineup for their friendly with AC Milan on Saturday.
The Reds can book their place in Monday's final of the International Champions Cup with a win over the Italian side in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the Northern Irishman is looking to field his big-name players.
He told the club's official website: "We will be strong, and that will hopefully be the case throughout every game we play this season.
"The objective is the same for all the players - we need to get them at the fittest possible level for the first game of the season. That's still the focus.
"Of course, a game Saturday and potentially Monday means you're having to look at all of the players and who to use, but that's something we're going to have to do throughout the season. Every member of our squad will be vital for us this season. We'll never have an understrength team."
Liverpool begin their new campaign with a visit of Southampton on Sunday August 17.
