I'm starting to get the feeling that Roy is digging his heels in now.
He MUST know the fans feelings on the likes of Poulsen and to some extent Konchesky, but he persists with them.
After what could be the worst ever Liverpool display ever versus Stoke, most managers would shake the team up, and show those who played that it is not acceptable.
But no, Roy will go with Poulsen for sure, and not give any youngster a chance in the absence of Gerrard.
I would play
Reina
Kelly Carra Agger (if fit) Aurelio
Kuyt Merieles Shelvey Cole
Ngog Torres
If we don't win this one, then surely Roy has nowhere left to go other than the exit?
