    Just like 13/14 at times we do play 3-4-3 but it is the deep lying CM (Gerrard now Hendo) who is the 3rd body in the back 3.
    Wondered about 3 at the back from the moment we only had Moreno for LB. Milner has covered that problem but if changed to a "formal" 343 it does ease some personnel problems but the gap behind the wing backs would be a serious worry.

    yes when we are attacking but that also allows both box to box cms go forward and all..... BUT the other teams are playing two blocking CMS with the back 3 rather than just 3 back and 7 forward like us!

    The point would be if we are light at CM why not stick another Cb in and push the full backs on.

    Thinking about it if we did move to 3 at the back might be worth considering Can.

    I've heard we are playing 10 - 0 - 0. If you do the same we can just go straight to penalties.

    Forecast for Wednesday is decent day and temperatures around the 9 mark. You'll think it's the South of France in summer. Make sure you bring your sun cream.

    You need it anyway to shield you from the glare of our away kit.

    Please don't beat us, the Mancs are chirpy enough as it is after scraping a draw against us.

    Yeah, but if we lose we can just point out that a League 2 side can do something they couldn't.

    I know lets not play a child who cant head the ball up front and actually score early!

    I know this is a radical concept for lfc but it might just work.

    What with the model at gk, the cm at cb, the rw at lb and the failed cb at cm... why... it could just shock our opposition if we play a striker as a striker

    Plymouth are playing us at the right time for them.

    We are on a run of 4 matches without a win. If we don't win within the 90 minutes it will be 5 and tricky fixtures to come :bandit:

    people were on about the u23 game last night. it was a dull affair with a late injury time winner ofr utd.

    the important thing is to look at the team that played

    Liverpool: George, Whelan, Hart, N Phillips, Brewitt, Williams (Brimmer), Virtue, Dunn (T Gomes), Alves (K Lewis), M Gomes, Lennon. Unused substitute: Kelleher

    Note who is missing (no not the "warrior")

    Harry wilson missed the game as he was training at melwood with the seniors. As a guy about to turn 20 either he plays this game now or he can be thinking about moving to save his career.


    also who else? brannagan is not there.

    Lucas is OUT

    Matip is going to play

    things are getting interesting

    If you pick him despite the FIFA issue remaining unresolved then it could end up with you being kicked out of the FA cup for fielding an ineligible player.

    You'd be barking to risk it, therefore this is nothing more than posturing imo.

    Can't see it happening. No point risking it in game if it could end up with us being kicked out cup and even worse docked points in league if we play him at weekend or get him an even longer ban.
