I'm with Piedro on this.
It would also be nice to give the likes of Pacheco a chance finally.

If Spurs beat Bolton then we can still get 4th i think. Taking this into account i have now changed my mind (strongest team please Rafa).

you mean if bolton beat spurs, surely? spurs win and all they'll need is 1 point from 2 games to equal the maximum we can get (68 points).

No.
I meant it's still possible mate. We might as well give it a go while we have a chance (however small).

Judging by our performances this season, I'm honestly not particularly worried about winning, with any personnel.
So we've got that going for us, which is great.
I will celebrate this season being over.

Well I'm going along with all the assumptions that have been made in thread Raf.
For the record, I think we will get to the Europa League Final. As for Chelsea, regardless of what team Rafa puts out, I hope we play to win. Karma can be a bitch.

basically we need three teams above us to all draw or lose their last two/three matches.
its not likely but it isn't impossible

I completely agree with Piedro.
But we'll probably lose to Chelsea regardless of what team we put out, so meh.

depends what happens with spurs and what happens on thursday as to what team rafa field.
we win on thursday and spurs in on saturday I doubt we'll see a full strength side.

Fuck that....
I don't want United winning fuck all let alone number 19 but ffs... we are losing sight of things here. Being a Liverpool fan, i've always thought, was about cheering the team on to do their best through thick and thin.
Fuck Chelsea i hate Chelsea, FUCK United doubly so, but hating the other teams more enough to want my own to lose is just shabby really, in fact it's fucking arse...
It would make us fucking Wolves to rest players... bollox to that...
Try and win every single game to the end of the season and thats the end of it, if the Mancs win it then... whoop dee doo they won a shit title in a poor season... congratulation and fuck off... i'm not giving them my fucking football soul into the bargain.

after the champs league semi final in 07 rafa made 8 or 9 changes for the game against fulham even though the final was over two weeks away. Although as 4th place will still mathematically be possible I would hope we put out our strongest team

I haven't got the figures to check, but I'm pretty sure finishing one place higher in the league would be worth more financially than winning th Europa.
Not that it should make a difference but I bet it does.

I read somewhere that every place higher up the league you finish gets you 1 million more. May be horribly wrong though

You could be right but I think it's £500,000 per place.

If: -
1. We beat AM and get to the final.
2. Spurs win.
3. It becomes mathematically impossible to get 4th place.
4. We finish in the top 7 positions to guarantee some European football next season.
5. Neverton has absolutely zero chance of finishing above us.
Then I'll consider a bit of squad rotation for:
a. Allowing the likes of Pacheo, Ayala and all the other potentials to shine.
b. Giving us the best chance of winning the final.
c. Seeing Fergies face and seeing if he comments about fielding a weakened team (that still plays well against the Chavs)
1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 before a, b, c.

The Europa is a bit shit, but now we're in the semi-final, why not try and win the trophy?
I'd prefer a trophy to scraping 4th (unlikely as that may be) in some ways, because if we get new owners, BIG investment, and keep our best players (Torres, Gerrard, Masher), ditch the cunts (Lucas, Insua, Eggnog) then maybe we can take a proper full-on crack at winning the title without any other real distractions.
I'm a dreamer, I know.
Torres will stay even without CL football if Benitez stays and we get £100m to buy 3-4 top quality players.
