Liverpool Vs Blackburn Rovers - Match Thread

[Gibbo]

Blackburn - Robinson; Orr, Hanley, Dann, Martin Olsson; Marcus Olsson, N'Zonzi, Dunn, Formica; Hoilett, Yakubu.

Liverpool - Doni; Flanagan, Skrtel, Coates, Johnson; Henderson, Shelvey, Spearing, Maxi; Carroll, Bellamy.

Lots of negativity around the place, but all I can say is. Lets av em.

[Gibbo]

I like Brad Fridel, even if he does look like Hellboy

[kop-al-74]

Obviously the team selection is with the semi final in mind but unless sterling is injured i can't understand why he's not in the match squad

[malg]

Felt confident, but now hummmmmm.

Thompson looked far from convinced.

****e team

Pleased to see Coates getting a game even if it doesn't go well its experience that he needs. Our centre midfield is so soft though, if we lose the game thats where it will be lost

You've got to laugh at the bench:

Subs: Jones, Enrique, Agger, Aurelio, Suarez, Kuyt, Carragher.

agree. the defence looks ok, and they will repel the blackburn attack, but the ball will just keep coming back through the lightweight midfield. it will be like trying to keep the tide out. hopefully we will press the game into their half allowing our midfield and wingers to better support the attack.
bellamy will be massive for us, for a midget.

Skrtel captain

Oh dear at our centre midfield and forward line, on the plus side our wide players are good and our defence is ok.

[kop-al-74]

Why oh why do we need 4 defenders in the bench? Whats the thinking behind that?
