Is that the team? Would be quite happy with that. Pretty attacking line up.

Nah, it's just what I'm hoping for. Can't see Carroll not playing really though so I reckon Kuyt will drop to the bench and Carroll and Suarez will start up top.

I hope for this, Suarez playing on the left, downing on the right, but more-so playing a kinda free, switch amongst yourselves role with Carroll in the middle.
Henderson in a midfield three is a definite yes for me.

I can't see Kenny playing Suarez wide, he hasn't so far. If him and Carroll play it'll be in a front two, unfortunately.

Yeh indeed, I'd agree, however he's good there, he played like that for Ajax I believe, when you watch him he likes to come from out wide. As long as it's looked upon as a Dutch style forward three, I think it'll work fantastically. It would also allow Kelly and Enrique to bomb forward. Please Kenneth?

WE've really got to kick on with these next three games (Norwich, West Brom, Swansea) and try and get the 9 points to put as right in there.
After that we've got Chelsea away, Citeh at home. Would be nice to go into those games on the back of a decent run and in the top four.
We have to beat Norwich tomorrow.

How long did Bellamy play for on Tuesday?
I was wondering if anyone thinks Agger will/should be thrown back into the starting XI?

Really like that team and it's the one i'd go for. Plenty of creativity and a bit of pace with Bellamy in the side.
I think we might see something like this though:
------------------- Reina ----------------------------
Kelly ---- Carragher ---- Agger --- Enrique
Henderson --- Gerrard --- Adam --- Downing
------ Suarez ---- Carroll

Lucas is suspended. Don't think Johnson and Agger should just waltz back into the starting line up.
...Especially after the way they performed against Rangers, albeit it was a meaningless match.

Norwich fan Joe Drabble - who works for Skysports.com - provides the view from Carrow Road ahead of Saturday's tea-time kick-off.
How are Norwich fans feeling about a trip to Anfield?
Excited. Very excited. Two years ago next week we were preparing for a League One showdown with Stockport County at Edgeley Park! It just shows how far we've come in a small space of time under Paul Lambert. We've already visited Chelsea and Manchester United in our opening seven games back in the Prem, but there is always something extra special about Anfield and it's one of the stand-out fixtures on the calendar.
One song we're bound to hear?
Our club anthem 'On The Ball City' is one of the oldest football songs still sang today and will pretty much be heard all match whether we're winning or losing. You'll do well to pick up the words.
Best thing about being back in the top flight?
Quite simply: it's the only league that matters. Great stadiums, great players, and we make it onto Match of the Day! There's nothing quite like having your very own Alan Hansen ripping our defending to shreds.
Players we need to be worried about?
I doubt you'll be particularly 'worried' by any to be honest but we have a couple who will cause a problem or two on Saturday. Wes Hoolahan makes us tick in the middle of the park and most of our best play comes through him. Wales striker Steve Morison is a big unit, strong in the air, so watch out for him from set plays. We also have a future England prospect playing at right-back in Kyle Naughton. He has come to us on loan from Spurs and looks the real deal.
Weak links?
Conceding goals and tackling in the box. We have failed to keep a clean sheet all season, giving away five penalties in the process. I won't name names but Leon Barnett is prone to a mis-timed lunge...
Three Liverpool players you'd love to see in yellow and green?
Steven Gerrard - he gives 100 per cent every game and clearly loves playing football for a living. He's also one of the most enthusiastic goal-celebrators on the planet. Luis Suarez - brilliant feet and a superb finisher. I think I speak for most English football fans when I say thank-you for signing him. I probably won't be quite as grateful come 7.30pm on Saturday, mind! Pepe Raina - top 'keeper and a real character by all accounts. Would fit in well at Norwich if you can spare him?
Best thing about being a Norwich fan?
Very loyal fanbase regardless of the opponents. It is an extremely infectious team to support and despite our recent hiatus from the Premier League, the club has stuck to its traditions of playing attractive, if not occasionally kamikaze, football. We sell out our home and away allocations week in, week out, which is quite an effort considering where we are based. Our majority shareholder (Delia) absolutely loves an ale, too.
And the worst?
Everywhere is bloody miles away!
How do you beat Norwich?
Stay patient. While we won't exactly park the bus, we won't be streaming forward in numbers either. We'll look to play on the break so the longer the match is level the more we'll fancy pinching a win. Andy Carroll could be a definite option for you. We aren't the strongest physically at the back so he could have a field day if the service is up to scratch.
Prediction?
Liverpool 2-3 Norwich. You probably thought I was an alright (sober) bloke until this bit but I've got to stay loyal. I think Liverpool are beatable and if we take our chances a shock could be on the cards. Expect us to leave it late, we usually do.

So long as he is fit then Carroll has to start ...if he can't get into the team for a home game against a newly promoted team (with all respect ) , then there is no fucking point to him being at the club .
