Lyon on Wednesday

[The_weatherman]

I'd be very surprised to see Aquilani start, 15mins is the most he's played so far and hes just recovering from a virus.

Torres will start this one too IMO.

Im hoping for something like this:

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

Johnson - Carra - Agger - Insua

Benni - Lucas - Mascher - Aurelio

----------Kuyt - Torres

Aquilani can come on for the last 30 min if fit enough.

Yeah, maybe that's too much to ask of Aquilani, but I don't really want to see Torres starting either if it is a risk, rather keep him on the bench as long as possible, with Kuyt on the right and Benni behind N'Gog I think we should be fine. Insua and Dossena on the left doesn't sound too bad either if Aurelio is out.

Oh FFS, Johnson is out as well

So it could be at best

Carra - Sotiris - Agger - Insua in defence Agger has to play really.....

[Shaggy]

Johnson has been ruled out

[Marky]

Johnson has been ruled out

Good shout Marky

Terrible news though.

Who plays right back now, Degen?

[Reece]

**** a duck

[Chazza]

Degens not Champs League Registered

[Shaggy]

Good shout Marky

Terrible news though.

Who plays right back now, Degen?

He's not registered. It'll have to be Darby.

Who plays right back now, Degen?

Not listed in the cL squad..............

Step up to the plate Stephen Darby............................

[BFG]

Who plays right back now, Degen?

Not registered for the CL is he?

If Agger can play then Sortis and Agger CB with Carra at RB.

Suicide pact anyone?

[-V-]

FFS. Carra would get ripped at right back at Lyon.

I rate Darby but this will be tough for him

[SimonNo7]

Not listed in the cL squad..............

Step up to the plate Stephen Darby............................

Carra to RB with Agger (if fit) and Kyrgiakos (if registered - is he?)

[DannyMan2006]

You know you're clubs in crisis when you're on your 4th choice Right Back!

Players who have started in defence this season:

CB

Carragher, Agger, Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Ayala.

RB

Johnson, Kelly, Degen - Darby?

LB

Aurelio, Insua, Dossena.

I remember in times gone by when it would be the same back 4 for all the season - with maybe the exception of the Carling Cup.

[Reece]

Like the sig DannyMan

[Marky]

Ahhh **** i never knew Degen wasn't registered for CL.

**** knows who we play there now. This is a blimin Nightmare.

Has to be Carra vs Cissoko, Degen is not registered and as decent a propect Darby is i wouldn't fancy him against Cissoko.

****in' hell, Terence Trent D'Arby at right back.
