Villa away

[paulcooper4]

I agree Babel should be eased in slowly but I just couldnt resist the temptation to throw him straight in against Villa. People seem to have low expectations from him, but I have a feeling he's going to be absolutely awesome. He has great arrogance which I love in a winger, he's very quick, super strong and has quick feet that remind me of Anelka. I think the only problem is that he doesnt seem to think he is a winger, but im sure Rafa will put him straight come Saturday.

I havent got low expectations mate. I`m expecting a lot from him, he has extremely quick feet and is well capable of beating men at will to hit the byline. Without comparing him to Barnesy as he`s imo the greatest left winger weve ever had (Too young to have seen billy liddel - neil young did though) he does however posess a similar style of play to diggers. We have been seriously needing this.

I just thing he will need a bit of time to adapt to getting the living **** kicked out of him - some players do. I am not convinced just throwing this fella in at the deep end would help him, whereas with some players it would.

Read the thread again fella

Leto isnt in the team I reckon rafa will put out

oh I see, i suppose we can never second guess Rafa

[paulcooper4]

Correct

But I am bored

[stevie_gerrard_8]

oh ok then, seein as you asked.....

well, i`d go for

---------------------Reina-------------------
Finnan-----Carra-----------Agger---------Riise
Gerrard----Alonso---------Mascherano----Leto
---------------Torres-----Kuyt---------------

Subs:-
Carson
Arbeloa
Momo
Benayoun
Voronin

I can guarantee you that leto will not play. he's only ever played once for Liverpool and is probably too inexperienced

I cant guarantee it like you can, but I seriously doubt he will play too, thats why he isnt in the side I predict to start against villa

Fair enough, he wasnt claiming that he would play, just that he would pick him himself.

We must win.

I would be honoured for a belle...ahem... a man of your culture and sophistication* chose one of my words

F*ck off

[Skillz]

Reina
Finnan-----Carra------Agger-----Riise

--------------Alonso-----------------
--------------------Sissoko----------
Pennant-----------------------Kewell
---------------------Gerrard---------
--------------Torres-----------------

[ineednewfootwear]

--------------Reina--------------
Finnan----Carra----Agger----Riise
Pennant-Gerrard-Alonso-Benayoun
---------Torres-----Kuyt---------

in typical fashion it'll be 0-0 ... up to the 85th minute when SG will lash home a long range effort to sneak the win. from there on the juggernaut will pick up speed.

[paulcooper4]

Thanks.

F*ck off

[RedReet]

Okay. I think this will be the team:

------------Reina-------------
Finnan---Carra--Agger---Riise--
Pennant-Sissoko-Alonso-Benayoun
-------------Gerrard--------------
------------Torres----------

2-0 to us.

Same prediction and same team bar swapping Kuyt for Pennant.

[Armchairkopite]

------------Reina----------
Finnan---Carra--Agger---Risse
Gerrard-Alonso-Marsh--Kewell
Kuyt-Torres

This is the team Rafa will start with imo.
