I think gerrard has to play wide right now untill we buy quality wingers, cause andy carroll is pointless unless hes got quality crosses coming in

suarez basically plays like rooney does for united, left but cutting in all the time and supporting the striker

Gerrard is our only great crosser

therefore he must be like beckham for half a season for us

^ might work. Really weak down the left side imo, we also dont have much steel ala masch in the midfield

Be very interesting to see how Kenny sits us up with Carroll and Suarez on board. I think the assumption isa that we will play a lot more 4-4-2 but i'm not so sure that is the best way to go. We've got a few different options and I must admit I'd like to see:

Kelly      Agger     Carra     Aurelio

            Mereilles    Lucas


Gerrard           Cole         Suarez

                  Carroll

I don't think Kenny likes Cole but i'm still hopeful he can make an impact at Anfield and the fact he hasn't gone anywhere on loan is encouraging. I really not sure what Kenny has in store for Gerrard and Mereilles? He seems to likie Mereilles playing off the front, I don't despite his recent good form. We've just bought an absolute brute to play up front but for me the only way to get the best out of him is to get a quality right and left foot on the flanks so i'd love to see Stevie playing off the flank as he did in 06/07. Carroll is SUPERB in the air but Kuyt and Maxi don't have the skill-set to tak advantage of it. Suarez has spent quite a it of time playing wide as part of a 3 in the traditional Ajax sense although i think it was mostly from the right. He could well end up doing the same at LFC on either flank. If we go 4-4-2 I wonder how Kenny will set-up the midfield? I'd like to see Gerrard and Mereilles in the middle for homes in particular but I'm not sure we'll see it which means one of them will miss out and we don't have a single winger at the club who is suited to play wide in a 4-4-2. If we do line-up this way i'd like to see:

Kelly    Carra    Agger    Aurelio


Jonno   Gerrard   Mereilles   Cole


        Suarez    Carroll

if only we could go back in time and get ginola and beckham in their prime

bring them into 2011 and sign them for the reds 

[andy_g]

while we have no wingers i think we're best off relying on fullbacks who can get forward and whip a decent ball in. that means johnson back on the right and aurelio on the left. i've no idea of suarez' crossing ability but he seems talented enough so i'm sure he can get a few in if he's hanging about on the left as well. carroll has a pretty good shot on him with both feet too and is able to barge his way through the middle with the ball on the ground, so we don't have to become some kind of luxury bolton and rely on crosses and corners all the time anyway.
