Wolves v Man City Cardiff v Burnley Blackburn v Newcastle Arsenal v Bolton Stoke v Liverpool Aldershot v Man Utd Crystal Palace v Southampton Everton v Chelsea That is an immense draw for Aldershot... Should make them a few quid!
Regarding our Carling Cup draw, it depends on what Tony Pulis thinks of it. Stoke have got Europe to contend with as well so he might not take it too seriously. Time will tell.
Hi Lemon... I always see you browsing the threads! Yet you've never made a comment. Welcome to the site mate
Reina kelly- carragher- skrtel/coates-enrique -henderson- lucas- Gerrard if fit- downing -Carroll(give the lad a chance)- suarez For some reason i have a feeling carroll would do well if starting today, i will put a tenner on a hattrick if he starts
Hoping for a good performance today and to put the defeat against Spurs out of our minds. I can see Gerrard starting today after his cameo against Brighton. I think Bellamy & Suarez need to start after their performances. The movement and link up play was immense. Was like they'd been playing with each other for years. I'm going for an optimistic 3-0.
Bloody hell, all PL teams are playing each other apart from one...and they get a league 2 side! The rest of the game look decent match-ups though, particularly ours and Everton's.
Reina, Kelly, Enrique, Carragher, Skrtel, Downing, Henderson, Lucas, Adam, Carroll, Suarez. Subs: Doni, Gerrard, Bellamy, Coates, Flanagan, Kuyt, Spearing.
P.S, Liverpool team is: Reina, Kelly, Carragher, Skrtel, Enrique, Henderson, Lucas, Adam, Downing, Carroll, Suarez. Would've liked to have seen Kuyt and Bellamy starting personally.
Maxi not even on the bench? Kuyt, Suarez, Bellamy & Maxi linked up so well in midweek and only 1 of them survives. Glad to see Kelly back though that is a massive boost! No longer will we have to make do with Skrtel! Really hope Big Andy can put in a performance today just to ease the pressure on him a bit.
I would have preffered: Reina Kelly, Carragher, Skrtel, Enrique Kuyt, Lucas, Gerrard, Downing Suarez, Bellamy Bench: Doni, Coates, Flanagan, Adam, Henderson, Maxi, Carroll Easily one of best squads we could have put out. As were at home I'd go with a 4-4-2, Lucas in a holding role, Gerrard given a free role, helping the defence only when desperately needed, Kuyt tracking back, but only to a medium limit (Lets say his normal tracking back is high), Enrique on the overlap runs, working with Bellamy and Downing, allowing them to exploit the room on the inside when possible. Suarez working on the attack ONLY! Sub him off as soon as he shows slight signs of exhaustion. If we're winning comfortably then by all means give Downing a rest too. Basically, we need to go for it, we're home, we're facing Wolves, we have our captain back and if Kelly stays back we can have it as 3 centre-backs with Lucas as added cover. Don't let Gerrard work tirelessly because its important he gels with the team, gets a good run out without the weight of defensive duties. But we've not gone for that...
It varies to be honest. You get the half time chat always, but sometimes they don't start until about 2 mins before kick-off.
Oh right, cheers guys. That explains why a few of the streams aren't showing anything yet Should be a decent game but I think Bellamy more than deserves a starting spot, maybe Kenny wants to use him more as an impact sub?
