AURELIO THE ONLY CHANGE FOR REDS

Jimmy Rice at Anfield 01 October 2008

Fabio Aurelio starts against PSV tonight as Rafa Benitez makes just one change from the side which beat Everton at the weekend. Listen to the game live online from 7.40pm BST.

The left-back replaces Andrea Dossena, while Javier Mascherano has to settle for a place on the bench after recovering from a calf strain.

The Reds XI in full is:

Reina
Arbeloa
Aurelio
Carragher
Skrtel
Gerrard
Alonso
Riera
Kuyt
Keane
Torres


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

Looking strong. I can see us slaughtering them tonight.

[Marky]

Nice one.

Please Keane, score man.

[Pablo]

Come on the redmen, lets put ourselves in control of this group tonight.

[DannyMan2006]

Quite suprising, I envisaged some changes being made.

No complaints though I guess. Hopefully we can wrap it up early and give Stevie and the likes a rest.

Love it. What a ****ing great bench...possibly only lacking a genuine centre-forward.

[Dirk07]

good team but feel the bench lacks a little quality, what happens if we need to make changes?

lol

The bench is oozing quality!

Do you mean specifically attacking quality? If so...yeah....as I said we're lacking a proper striker (as opposed to Babel).

Voronin?

Agger, Mascherano, Babel cover all positions needed.

[Marky]

I actually think we need to buy another striker.

I'd love Santa Cruz.

I know what you mean about attacking quality but feel a bit greedy saying that to be honest.

Besides we have 3 players on the field who could play stiker

I think our bench could have beaten our full first eleven from about 4 years ago

Even 7 v 11?

Also you've confused me....do you think our bench lacks quality or is ace?

[Shaggy]

Nothing to do with the match thread but I've just noticed on Sky's coverage that they're playing Elbow on the PA in Cluj, Romania.

We're struggling as it is to give players games. Let's see how N'gog and the returning Nemeth do in the reserves before splashing the cash. Besides with the way we play I think Babel would suit us better up top than the slow Santa Cruz. We don't exactly bomabard the box with crosses, which RSC thrives on.
