Team for Stoke

[the rev leeroy brown]

hopefully we'll see :

reina

johnson carra skrtel dossena

kyut mash gerard benni

torres babel

dossena might have a bit more attacking opportunities than insua i feel. babel deserves a shot up top where he wants to play. and gerards needs to play deeper till the italian ready.

[Reece]

Anyone know when Agger is back? I'm assuming not for this but I'm going to include him in my ideal team anyway

Reina
Johnson
Carragher
Agger
Insua
Kuyt
Lucas
Mascherano
Benayoun
Gerrard
Torres

How did you not recognise those lyrics then?

I did recognise them! I even had the tune on my phone. Catch me if you can...

[saj]

For the service for Jarque then?

The commentator on Match of the Day said he was injured

[BobTheCharmer]

For the service for Jarque then?

yes.

[PTP]

no need to panic just yet - we were poor against spurs but it was a tough opener. I would defo drop babel in the mersey though and bring yossi

Reina

Johnson
Carra
Skrtel - he will be fine, impact injuries don't bother him, bit of co-codemol and get him on he pitch
insua

mascher
lucas

kuyt
gerrard
benayoun

torres.


As i have said in the aftermath of the spurs game, it's vital we are flexible enough to change - ie if after 30 mins or so we havne't broken them down - lob kuyt up top to support torres and try and make some space before half time etc

[RPAS]

Johnson and Insua will have huge roles to play tomorrow night. If Yossi doesn't start there's something seriously wrong at our club.

Or something wrong with Yossi, serious or otherwise.

[RPAS]

He's proven to be an excellent buy; his attitude is spot on; he always makes a difference when he's on the pitch. 9/10 you don't even know Babel is on the pitch; that is of course until he tries to control the ball and sends it into the stands.

But he will start so its pointless saying such things

[S-RED]

Skrtel is out for up to 2 weeks, cracked jaw

[Assassin]

Skrtel is out for up to 2 weeks, cracked jaw

[Exiled_red]

Skrtel is out for up to 2 weeks, cracked jaw

And I'm assuming Agger is also still out?
