    Now that the United match is over, and the players performances are still kind of fresh in our minds, I thought it'd be a good time to discuss how we will approach the Norwich game (that, and it beats the fruitless arguing that's all over the other threads.)

    I personally feel, with Lucas out, it's an excellent opportunity for Henderson to come into a central position. Perhaps Gerrard should drop deeper next to Adam, with Henderson occupying a similar role to the one he played at the end of today's game. One thing I noticed is that, while he isn't the most clinical in front of goal, Henderson is good at finding space and gets plenty of shooting opportunities. Sooner or later a few will start flying in.

    I think, at least for the start, we should stick with the same 11 who finished today's game, only with Agger coming back. I'd go with:

    Reina
    Kelly Caragher Agger Enrique
    Gerrard Adam
    Kuyt Henderson Downing
    Suarez

    This is a game we should be winning comfortably, so I don't think a Spearing is needed to replace Lucas. We should be looking at a more flexible attacking formation.

    I'd also like to see Maxi and Bellamy get some playing time, as I feel we're missing out on something by not playing either of them regularly, particularly towards the end of games.

    Your thoughts?

    Have we got a friendly against Rangers in midweek? Or is that after the Norwich game?

    Think that's this week, but I don't expect we'll put much of a team out for it.

    And regarding the Norwich game, I think Carroll will come back for this game.

    Something like this?

    Reina
    Kelly-Carragher-Agger-Enrique
    Henderson-Lucas-Gerrard-Downing
    Carroll-Suarez

    I can see Kenny putting out a team like that.

    Did you mean Adam instead of Lucas in that?

    Yeah, Lucas is banned for one game. Thankfully I don't think we'll miss him for this one.

    Yes 1 match ban. This sets the record for an early thread for the next game.

    Sorry, it wasn't intended as a build up thread as such, just for general discussion of who we'd like to see play, with reflections on the game today.

    Hmm...

    So many options now!

    Maybe bring Spearing in for Lucas?

    Reina
    Kelly-Carragher-Agger-Enrique
    Kuyt-Spearing-Gerrard-Downing
    Carroll-Suarez

    Can see something like this but that leaves out players like Adam, Johnson and Henderson! Would like Maxi to play a part in this game... Hasn't been involved much this season.

    Or something like this?

    Reina
    Kelly-Carragher-Agger-Enrique
    Kuyt-Adam-Spearing-Downing
    --------Gerrard
    ---------------Suarez

    I was thinking Spearing in for Lucas keeping the formation is important.

    For me Adam has to play, he had his best game for us today.Gerrard has to play.And against Norwich it should be 2 strikers.The best Spearing should get is the bench

    I'd go with this line up, I'm still not sure about Adam definsivly and I feel he needs some one to graft besides him, and with Lucas out Spearing is the only real person who can do that

    I think Hendo will be back in there, especially now Lucas isn't playing. The only reason Kenny didn't play him vs Everton and Utd is because he was looking to experience in big games like that.

    I think Carroll will make a return to the starting line-up also, it could be the same as the Everton game with Hendo for Lucas and maybe Agger returning as well.

    --------------Reina
    Kelly-Carragher-Agger-Enrique
    Henderson-Adam-Gerrard-Downing
    -----------Suarez-Carroll

    Just realised Kuyt may even start.
