...reckon we'll go we such a large number of changes?

Appreciate the like of Lucas, Sakho and Firmino will need a rest, but Lallana only played a few mins off the bench so think he may start instead of Texeira/Ojo

I'd rather play a weak team and rest the first team. Not arsed about this one, we'll lose anyway!

Our 'seniors' are crap enough to lose this one. So might as well let the yoof have one more big game:

Ward
Clyne Caulker Sakho Smith
Brannagan Stewart Allen
Ojo Tekkers Tex

The youngsters will run all day long and that could be enough to at least get a replay. As long as Payet feels the game is beneath him and doesn't bother showing up.

[Daniel 7]

Forget that, we need to replicate the spirit of 2000/01 cup treble! I want all three of them!

[redmike65]

Sakho clearly doesn't rate the FA Cup!

I'd play the kids with rotated first 11 players like Ibe, Allen and Benteke but we don't know what Klopp wants to put emphasis on. Given the schedule, there will have to be changes.

Oh yeah, he did - was thinking about the Norwich game...

[Buzzo]

And we play the now mighty Leicester City on Tues, so we need some of the chaps to have a day off on Saturday.

Anyone think Enrique will start this one?

[hurriedly runs for cover...]

[Bender]

Aggh west ham .....poor recent record against them

[Cormack74]

I'd be tempted to give Ilori another run assuming Carroll's not fit.

[Exiled_red]

I don't see us putting a significantly weaker team out, it's Tuesday and Saturday so we'll have had a reasonable rest, maybe rotate a few of the people who have played alot of football, and the likes of Flanagan who, coming back from injury you wouldn't want to start 2 games in a week. Also I don't see Mignolet being rested/dropped as the Stoke game was his best for a while, and he will be full of confidence after the shoot out, so I don't see Ward coming in.

[RichC]

We also play on Tuesday again against Leicester which is 3 games in a week including 120 minutes and a pen shoot outl I'd be surprised if there arent a few changes against West Ham

There'll be a few probably about 3 or 4, I don't see it being a whole second string lineup as some people seem to be suggesting.
