I thought Henderson was injured.
Im really skeptic about Lucas starting. He's done well against teams we should be beating, but i can't recall the last time he had a good game against a good side. He was piss poor against Arsenal, His poor positioning is thoroughly exposed against the better sides.

If Hendo was fit, would have preferred him starting along with Allen in midfield and Coutinho or Alberto ahead.

Hope we come away with three points or atleast a draw.

Rodgers was always going to put both Aspas and Alberto on the bench as otherwise he had no cover whatsoever! I really don't see the reason for this Lucas bashing.
 
I think we'll win the PL every year ;)

I try not to admit it to anybody but until is mathematically impossible i still harbour belief every year. Even when it mathematically impossible i still pray for a corruption scandal which sees the teams above us docked 50 points each. Leaving us with a clear run and a smugness that we were the only honest team.

Dreams ay

REP :bandit:
 
We're gonna win
Forget about a draw, we're gonna score
And then we're gonna get a few more
Maybe another one just to be sure
We'll make you look just like an amateur
Until the final whistle it's a war
And then we're gonna pick you off the floor
We wanna hear the crowd really roar
Yeah, we're comin' in we're gonna win, win
Yeah!

To quote Mr Adams <laugh>

Well hopefully...let's Go!!!!
 
Gerrard on Suarez captaining the team today.

"Am I arsed? No. Not in the slightest. They can make him Chairman for all I ****ing care."

I'll be brutally honest with you, I think Lucas is a fairly average DM and has zero positional sense. He needs to be more aware of where the opponents are and stick to his zone. You watch a player like Busquets, and you see his head swivel like an owl, constantly being aware of where the opponents are and anticipating moves. In contrast I rarely see Lucas watch over his shoulders.

He's like a school boy attracted to where ever the ball is. Thus leaving huge gaps behind him. He really has to improve his positioning.
