The only exception would be Reina, he didn't play in the world cup and as playing positions go, goalkeeper requires the least fitness work.

With that in mind, I would hazard a guess at

Reina

Johnson Carragher Skrtel Kelly

Gerrard Lucas

Maxi Cole Jovanovic

Ngog

Subs: Cavalieri, Wilson, Aurelio, Aquilani, Shelvey, Kyrgiakos

Now with the news of Mascherano staying, if only till Inter change their minds. Maybe he will play on Sunday? I doubt it but the team would look more secure. The ideal line up (Midfield and Forward) against Arsenal would be

Gerrard Mascherano

Kuyt Cole Jovanovic

Torres

Yaaaaaay Fabregas and Van Persie are doubts

We can win this if Torres plays. If not then I reckon draw

Well pleased our defence has been strengthened with the return to fitness of Danny Agger .... it allows me to be a hell of a lot more optimistic in believing we can snatch this 1-0 .... Jovanovic scoring the only goal of the game after being set up by Cole :;):

Fabregas and Van Persie will be playing.

How many times have we seen this before, big doubts and then they play miraculously on match day :glare:

am sorry but with nando out we could easily be in the bottom 3 after the first two games.

With N'Gog leading the forward line i cant say im filled with confidence going into the new season, lets just pray that Torres is ready to play soon.

I seem to recall Roy saying that Masch would be in the team against Arsenal if he was still here. I'm guessing Kuyt will be fit and raring to go and will start on the right, with Cole and Jovanovic making a three. After Torres, the other question is who plays at LB: Kelly, Agger, Aurelio or Insua.

Hopefully Both of these will not start.
It would be nice if Arshavin got food poisoning late on Saturday too, as the this little fecker seems to be a right thorn in Liverpools side.

But if Fartyarse and Van Puddinglover are out, we should be in for AT LEAST a point.

1-0 maybe....... 1-1 more realistic.....Arshavin you little

?

Was hoping to do this 1, but Dundalk beat me to it.

I'm going for a comfortable home win. I think we'll have too much for Ar$enal. Cole will be magic, Jova will be solid and run at them all afternoon. If Torres plays... 3-0 to us. (Torres, Gerrard 2) . If Torres sits out... 3-0 to us. (Cole, Gerrard 2)

so, THREE NIL please

DAMMIT DUNDALK

I'd be happy with any scoreline that gets us a win, but I think a draw is more likely. That's the likely result but I think there will be plenty of unexpected results around the league in the early part of the season coming off the back of the world cup. Does anyone see Kuyt getting on the field sunday?
