On another note, just saw holloways press conference on ssn. Its impossible not to like the guy. He has great respect for us.

I think he is a liverpool fan, so there may be a 'little' bias.

I think he'll be awesome, IF he plays there.
 
I'm not convinced & haven't been since it was first mooted.

I hope to fuck I'm wrong cos a right winger would do wonders for us.

That said, I want Wilson & Kelly to be our long term centrebacks, not full backs. I'm not too worried about that now though.

he wont have the space to run into but he will have less defensive responsiblities so he can concentrate on what he is good at; attacking.

sounds elementary so will probably be a disaster...
 
It's certainly an idea worth experimenting with. I've been surprised at some of the reluctance to try it.

Kelly is a better defender. Johnson is a better at attacking than defending, and we lack a RW with pace, skill, goals.

That's enough justification to give it go, and I hope he does a brilliant job.

We've only won the league once without a Scot in the side. And all of a sudden we have Clarke, Kenny and Wilson is starting. Are there any more decent Scots out there?
[/quote]

Parker?
 
Anyone considered we might be playing 5-3-2 tonight? Kenny did it in the latter stages of his last spell in charge at Anfield.

Something like this...

----------------------------Pepe---------------------------

Johnson----Skrtel-----Agger---------Wilson--------Kelly

------------------Lucas--------Meireles--------------------

-------------------------Maxi----------------------------------

-----------------Kuyt-------------Torres--------------------


With Kelly and Johnson given licence to make it a 3-5-2 when in possession.
 
Yeah, that's obviously the most likely set-up Jimmy. I wouldn't rule out a 5-3-2 / 3-5-2 though.
 
Kenny took a kicking in an article the other day about being overly cautious in the latter stages of being manager of Liverpool, then at Blackburn and then with Newcastle, playing fullbacks in midfield, two defensive midfielders, etc..

Hardly the case here, but I hope it was just down to what he had available to him back then rather than a preference for caution. It's great to see Kelly at fullback and Johnson in midfield, though essentially we're playing with four centre backs and a defender in midfield.

Tehe.

Glen Johnson's wife has had a baby boy. No idea if he traveled with the squad to Blackpool though.

Bit young for that no ?
