What are the odds on anyone staying fit for the 90 minutes?What are the odds on Evans staying fit for 90 minutes?
That's what worries me. I'm as sure as I can be that we'll finish above them in the league but I really don't know what will happen in this match.Liverpool's champions league Final! They'll everything they've got into this.
Who's your striker?I'd play:
Mignolet; Manquillo, Toure/Sakho, Lovren, Moreno; Lucas, Henderson, Coutinho; Markovic, Gerrard, Sterling.
1/50000. There's no way all our players are getting injured. (jinxed)What are the odds on anyone staying fit for the 90 minutes?
Depressing but true.What are the odds on anyone staying fit for the 90 minutes?
He thinks Gerrard can play no.9Who's your striker?
Rodgers is a tactical mastermind, they don't need a striker. Steven "The Man" Gerrard will act as a Trequartista, although he will also perform the role of the Regista, No. 10 and Poacher at the same time.Who's your striker?
We say this every single match but It never happens.falcao to score a brace
Well now you've jinxed it!1/50000. There's no way all our players are getting injured. (jinxed)
Basically I'd play Gerrard as a "false nine" until we get Sturridge or Balotelli fit.Who's your striker?
Why do you think that will work?Basically I'd play Gerrard as a "false nine" until we get Sturridge or Balotelli fit.
It might not. It gets more pace and creativity on the pitch though and playing with a striker hasn't worked either. Gerrard has better movement and is a better finisher than Lambert too. Probably better in the air as well.Why do you think that will work?
I'd say we'll know on Friday.Any news on Angel being potentially available for this?
well..apparently it's going to be bloody cold...so I'd put him on the bench with a blanket and let him lose for the last 15 minutes...Doubt Di Maria will start...coming in from the bench?
They have been good for the fact that they are no real Backs, but i'd still take Rafael and Shaw any day over then.I find it surprising some of you don't rate Valencia & Young in the right/left back position. Overall, they've been exceptional

I hope they'll play Mignolet as False no. 1Rodgers is a tactical mastermind, they don't need a striker. Steven "The Man" Gerrard will act as a Trequartista, although he will also perform the role of the Regista, No. 10 and Poacher at the same time.
Why not Lallana?I'd play:
Mignolet; Manquillo, Toure/Sakho, Lovren, Moreno; Lucas, Henderson, Coutinho; Markovic, Gerrard, Sterling.
This. They haven't been particularly tested defensively (in a 4 at the back system - the whole point in 352 when we haven't got full backs fit is to protect their defensive frailties IMO) and they still don't offer anything going forward. Against weak teams with the diamond they're perfectly fine, but against stronger teams they'll get really exposed in a formation without wingers to protect them. The way the full backs get exposed with the diamond was shown against Leicester for instance.Exceptional? Defensively they've been bang on average at best and as for going forward they have offered little or nothing except miss placed crosses or momentum killing back passes as soon as they're pressured in anyway.
This new praise for Ashley Young is rather confusing, against Southampton during the week he spent most his time back passing and when he actually got forward he fired in two ''good crosses'', yet they managed to miss their targets.
They've done well, but I wouldn't say exceptional.I find it surprising some of you don't rate Valencia & Young in the right/left back position. Overall, they've been exceptional
Much better than expected, yes, but they have not been exceptional.I find it surprising some of you don't rate Valencia & Young in the right/left back position. Overall, they've been exceptional
