--------------------- Reina ---------------

Johnson ------ Carragher ---- Agger ---- Insua( :'( )

--------------- Lucas ---- Mascherano

----- Babel ----------- Gerrard -------------------- Kuyt

----------------------- Torres -------------------

I've deliberately put Kuyt on the left to help out Insua, bearing in mind United are stronger down the right side.

Any of that top 4 are capable of scoring at any time. It's a pretty good side if you ask me.

Maxi Lucas Masher Babel

That will be the team I think - Torres to scare the shite out of Vidic again and us to win 3-1

Agger is a major doubt apparently.

There's not a chance in hell Rafa will leave Kuyt out.
 
"Alberto did some light training for us today so hopefully he will be ready for the weekend," assistant manager Sammy Lee told Liverpoolfc.tv.

My team:

Mascherano Aquaman

Kuyt Gerrard Maxi

Torres
 
Reina

Magic
Carra

Oh dear God Insua

Or maybe switch Maxi and Babel and play Maxi just behind Torres

That'd be ace. Rafa would so never play it though.
 
Although Zorba has played well recently I really hope he doesn't play against United.
 
I like yours as well but not convinced with Kuyt on the right of a 4-4-2.
I just want to see 2 strikers and Gerrard behind them.
As long as Lucas is not in the starting XI, Ill be happy

If Insua plays Rooney will get a hat-trick. Valencia's spent all week practising running past tubs of lard and crossing to Rooney.

Is Agger definite? I'd almost rather see Kelly play as Zorba lack of mobility against Rooney and Berbatov worries me greatly.

Didn't give Sami much hassle last year and Zorba's heading ability could be invaluable.

Zorba and Sami are hardly comparable.

Yeah yeah, I know, Sami's a Golden God Yadda, but they are both slow fucks but more than useful in the air against, hello, people who can head the ball with good wingers to supply blah de blah etc...
 
[quote author=TheBunnyman link=topic=39408.msg1073442#msg1073442 date=1269044289]
Get real Themn. Sami's fucking ace. Zorba's OK at best.

You've awoken the beast.
 
Zorba's been our best centre-back so far this year according to Morse's MOM list and I don't think he's even hit 10 games yet. With Rooney's heading ability being highlighted by the media as each match passes, Zorba would be my first choice CB for Sunday.

I gotta disagree, but I'm too bollixed to explain why.
 
Anyone who would pick Zorba + Carragher as the CBs hasn't been paying attention.

Hyppia was more than just a good strong header of the ball, he was a positional genius.

Zorba is a solid defender, but not much more than a strong presence in the air. Everything he does is clumsier and dirtier than Hyppia, and he can't make up for his lack of speed anywhere near as well.

You want to give one of the most natural strikers at operating between midfield and CB more space as our CBs really deep due to the threat of pace? Simply because Rooney has, uncharacteristically, scored a few goals with his head recently?
