Wigan- Build Up

[-V-]

Robbie Keane named in the squad for tomorrow.

Im praying that he gets to start alongside Torres and gets back to scoring again. No matter what anyone else says i thought Keane was great against Arsenal and Bolton and considering that was only last month i still think he has a chance to make it big at Liverpool. He was awful last monday and deserved to be subbed and his exclusion on sunday was worrying. Still come tomorrow hopefully he can kick-start his liverpool career once more. We need this Keane-Torres partnership to work

We have a very strong squad available tomorrow so im confident we will win

"Robbie had a day off on Sunday, he trained on Monday and today as normal - he will be in the squad for tomorrow," Benitez told his pre-match press conference.

"We are just thinking about using him in tomorrow's game. I will be very pleased if he can score against Wigan Athletic.

"He is working very hard and will be a very important player for the rest of the season. Keane is in the squad so we don't need to talk too much about him."

Hmmmn...

---------------Pepe--------------
Arbeloa--Carra--Hyypia--Dossenna
--------------Alonso--------------
Kuyt--------------------------Riera
----------Gerrard-----------------

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

Trying to fit Keane into a starting line up without compromising Gerrards place or reverting to a 4-4-2...do we need Mascher against Wigan's midfield??

I'd go 442 personally.

Drop Mascher (poor form) and play Gerrard and Xabi in CM.

Keane just off Torres.

I would go with this team but my concern would be getting Gerrard forward into offensive positions which are going to hurt Wigan, against Everton Gerrard just didn't threaten enough while Keane was on the pitch but as soon as he went off Gerrard scored from his first burst forward. They have got to work out how to play together as I think it could cause teams a lot of problems.

C'mon Rubbie!

We must win tomorrow, and we will!

[Joe King]

We won't win, I personally think Benitez's no lose mentality will mean we will draw the majority of the games remaining.
