If that's true then I like it. No real need to play Masher today (it's not as if he can help defend their long throws ). Would swap Babel for Kuyt so we can get at them on both sides, but overall in the words of the great Borat - is nice.

[JohnDoe]

I really like the team. Masch deserves a rest.

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Yeah i wudda give dirk a rest today as well but he obviously mustn't need one.. our very own marathon runner

[JohnDoe]

Kuyt never rests. He's not human.

[Reece]

Subs: Cavalieri, Agger, Babel, Benayoun, Lucas, Degen, Mascherano.

According to the official site, we are only playing with 10 men. How sporting!

That bench is just amazing.

[El Jefecito]

Hmmm, be interesting to see how that CM holds up against a physical team like Stoke.

Funny how Radio City know the full team sheet 10 minutes before the Official site do.

[JPK]

Good team. If we could only use 5subs there would be a good few quality players not even making the match day squad. Just shows how strong we are this year and the options we have. Looking forward to seeing Riera again

[Exiled_red]

It's a decent team and a strong bench, but I was half expecting one or two players on the bench that could have been brought on to get more Premiership experience, it would have been good to have brought N'gog on for a run out if we were doing well

[slimbimjim]

Wow we really do have a good team hey?
