Kuyt can fill Torres' Boots

[Shaggy]

Converted

If Rafa plays Kuyt then it is final proof that he has lost the plot

Haha.

I think Aurelio’s a much better player than Riise but his form has been rubbish and so doesn’t deserve to play. Call me old school, but you shouldn’t keep your place if you’re playing absolutely ****e.

Same applies to Kuyt.

Has been a hoofing merchant lately.

FFS.

I'd go with:

Reina

Arbeloa (if fit)/Finnan
Carra
Skrtel
Riise (this just shows how disillusioned I am with Aurelio )

Pennant
Mascherano
Lucas
Gerrard
Benayoun

Crouch

Have you not heard, Finnan is the best available left back

Well lately (last three games?) he's been scratching his arse at home with **** all to do as he's not even made the squads, but Aurelio has been poor in his absence so what can you do? We're not exactly spoiled for choice.

In fact, our left side is ****ing woeful.

I dread that team:

pepe
arbeloa
carra
sami
finnan
yossi
mascher
stevie
jar
kuyt
crouch

[Fan65]

Reina

Finnan Carragher Skrtel Arbeloa (if fit otherwise Aurelio if fit otherwise Riise)

Pennant Lucas Masherano Babel

Gerrard

Kuyt

[AFII]

I don't want to see Riise anywhere near our starting XI. He is rubbish.

Finnan on the left and Carra on the right is a better option. Skrtel and Hyypia in the middle.

It reall isn't. Finnan on the left is nuts, and Carra at right back isn't great either.

ok , sensible suggestion here

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

Finnan--Carra--Hyypia--Skrtel--Arbeloa

Gerrard----Mascher-----Lucas-----Riise

------------------Kuyt-------------------

If somebody offered you 0 - 0 before the game would you take it ?

A point away at Chelsea ?? Good result ??

With our current team/form/injuries ??

So, 5-5-0 then.

0-0 is the best we could hope for with that formation, but in answer to your question - yes anyway. Any team would I reckon.

If Fat Frank doesn't play then they'll be missing their 4 best players from their starting line up as well as their first choice strike force. Even so, I would take a 0-0 draw now without even thinking twice.

[Dalglish]

I'll simply support whoever Rafa puts out rather than whine about it
Call me one of these new style fans if you will

[WILF]

I've never written a formation like that before and hoped for 0 - 0 , but I currently feel so completely disillusioned with LFC and football generally that I think it would be kinda funny to go to the Bridge and deliberately play hoofball for 90mins just to take the piss.

[Exiled_red]

I think Kuyt will start on his own up front and we'll play 5 across the middle with Benny given licence to support Dirk.

If we are to play one up front it HAS to be Crouch! Kuyt hasn't been playing as an out and out striker all season

[Matt]

I've given up trying to second guess Rafa but based on the Carling Cup match, Lucas should get a game and Babel should start on the left again.

Yossi behind Crouch would do me nicely too but I won't hold my breath.
