The Liverpool team in full: Reina, Arbeloa, Aurelio, Carragher, Hyypia, Lucas, Alonso, Gerrard, Kuyt, Babel, Pennant. Subs: Cavalieri, Agger, Dossena, Mascherano, Keane, Benayoun, Riera.

That team will do for me :nod

I had a feeling Hyypia might get a start and i'm assuming lucas/alonso in mid kuyt up front babel left pennant right and stevie behind kuyt?

Although I don't quite get lucas for masch, masch has hardly played this season.

I find the line up baffling to be honest, why rotate?

Lucas and Pennant

Good to see Hyypia getting a game.The "anti rotationers" as they get called will be sharpening the knives for Rafas back!
Only 3 points will do!

People are tired they need some rest, Riera has been playing too much imo hasn't sat a game in a while. Keane is injured I believe and Hyypia to go against Crouch which imo is fine. The only sub I don't understand is Lucas.

That team should be enough to beat Pompey so i think he can afford to rest one or two. Pennant has a lot to prove and i think he will have a good game tonight

I can understand Hyppia's presence, but lucas? masch hasn't played much, surely he should have started.

Probably cause we are playing Sat and then Tuesday mate!
Bit shocked myself at the line up but I can understand Rafas thinking.

Didnt expect Babel AND Pennent to play

by **JC_81** » Wed Oct 29, 2008 8:24 pm

Don't agree with this line up at all.

We will play like a team of strangers tonight.

Lucas shouldn't be starting, why Mascherano isn't playing I don't know.

Not too fussed about our line up but can see why they need the rest.At least we have the fire power on the bench if needed.

Saying that i couldn't see how a Tony Adams Teamtalk would inspire anyone,Ifeel like slashing my wrists listenening to him.

Ditto.

Though, I hope we win. If we do, then fair play to the gaffer
