Swansea manager Michael Laudrup believes Liverpool should be the focus and not Brendan Rodgers for Wednesday's Capital One Cup clash at Anfield.

Changes

Laudrup will make changes for the trip to Merseyside anyway but one of them is enforced after goalkeeper Michael Vorm suffered a groin injury in Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Manchester City. The Dutchman's place will be taken by 33-year-old Gerhard Tremmel with David Cornell coming onto the bench and Laudrup has faith that the duo are more than ready to step up. "I have confidence in Gerhard and also in David," he said. "Of course what I need to have is confirmation of how long it will be with Michel, but I have no problem using Gerhard and David. "It is a very special position on the pitch and Gerhard has not played many games over the last year and a half and suddenly he will have to play a lot and he starts with two easy games at Anfield and against Chelsea at home!" He added: "There will be changes, a couple of them are obviously enforced, but I don't know yet how many there will be."
