Tonight's Team & match thread

I was hoping Oleguer would start. He's gash.

Apparently, his gaffer must think so too.

[Morph]

didn't realise Arbeloa was a centre back, thought he was a right wingback.

he is primarily a right back but can play center

[Red Chilli]

I wonder what's up with Sami Sami

[anfieldanfield]

Balague was spot on!

[RedJedi]

Debut for Arbeloa, eh?

They were just saying on Legends that he had a really good game againt Ronaldinio early in the season

[Red Chilli]

too slow?

Not in European matches IMO. I'd rather have Sami Sami in the middle with Carra and Agger either side than a new signing in such a big game. There might be an issue of understanding between the defenders. Still, Rafa's call.

[johnly]

C'mon Redmen, lets have em!

[El Jefecito]

Barca are crap in the air and Agger is better on the floor. Quite logical really.

I meant Sami for Arbeloa

---------Kuyt--Bellamy
-----------Gerrard
-------Alonso--Sissoko
Riise--------------------Finnan
----Agger--Carra--Arebola
------------Reina

Dominating their midfield will be very tough, Motta is underrated and good on the ball as well as defensively (stupid haircut though). Xavi is possibly the best central mid in the world, and Deco is very good as well.

Not too physical though, Momo could run riot!
