Doni v Aston Villa, 3pm

Jesus Wept

Both clubs have almost forgotten what it's like to win a game in the Premier League, with just two victories between them in their last 16 matches.

Daniel Agger could make his comeback after a six-week absence with a cracked rib sustained in the Carling Cup final.

Villa pair Charles N'Zogbia and Alan Hutton are in contention to return from respective knee and calf injuries.

Turtyturd

1-0 Liverpool.

Cometh the hour, cometh the man, so I expect Doni to score the winner from a kickout provided there are no shenanigans from the overhead camera.

wp on thread title. Doni seemed delighted ^

Jesus Wept

I expect we will line out something like this:

_______Doni___________

Other_Other_Other_Other

Other_Other_Other_Other

____Other__Other__



But would obviously favour something like this...

_______Other__________

Other_Other_Other_Other

Doni__Other_Other_Other

____Other__Other__

ok. what game did Doni play right wing and why was he played there? I heard it somehwere but never actually saw it.

After St Pat's hammering Shams last night, nothing can bring me back down, so feck it, i will watch this no matter what happens. Don't have Setanta so i'll head to the pub for a couple of pints of lovely lovely Guinness!!

There surely has to be a reaction today! Surely!! Just get stuck in and get the win. No messing about. There'll probably be a weird atmosphere at Anfield today so give them something to shout about and get behind from early on.

I really really hope Kenny starts Shelvey. I don't think he will, but he deserves a start!

Start a thread about it: Are Liverpool and Doni jokes done?

Hope he (Doni) gets his own entrance and pyro.

Severe lack of Coates.:mad:

SantryRed

What is Dalglish's problem with giving Carroll an extended run in the team? The league's is over in the sense that there's nothing to push for, yet he still won't play a player he spent 35 million on. It's baffling.

Yakult

A win would be kinda nice..

G.K.

If true, that's shocking.

Did you miss what he did last week? He should never wear the shirt again.

I think it will likely be a very different team during the week but the team picked today is the one Kenny has in his mind for the semi final.

A win for LFC be nice for a change! We have to see a reaction from the players today & it better be positive....YNWA

Leiva

Why no Coates

mike65

Cos Carra needs getting up to speed for the FA Cup semi final. :rolleyes:

Oranage2

Have to agree with SantryRed


Nice to see Kenny trying young players like Flanagan, Henderson and Shevley.

It's also good to see him playing Carra, no importance so let him play out a few games.

THough what does baffle me is why isnt he playing Carroll too, he know's what Kuyt can do and he know's what Gerrard is about so drop one (Kuyt) and play Carroll.

Could do with a Forrester-esque performance from one or two today.

I really hope Carroll is starting. He played really well last week before the occasion and the crowd got to him. A decent performance at home against a poor Villa side could be a great tonic.

redzerdrog

perfect for us to line up like this:

---

Doni

---

flan

---

carra

---

skrtle---enrique

---

henderson----shelvey

---

kuyt

---

gerrard

---

downing

---

suarez

---

but we all know it will be a frustrating 4-4-2

henderson---gerrard-shelvey--downing

---

suarez--kuyt

You not think about throwing any dm in those teams, or do you think doni just wont concede??

Well he's working with the players Kenny has selected. Afraid picking the players is beyond his remit :P

Yay! Carra starts...

Looks like Doni got his place in goal just ahead of Enrique

Been trying all season but i suppose god loves a trier

Tusky

Team: Doni, Flanagan, Carragher, Skrtel, Enrique, Henderson, Shelvey, Gerrard, Downing, Suarez, Kuyt. Subs: Jones, Bellamy, Carroll, Maxi, Spearing, Agger, Coates.

Extremely attacking. Shevley, Henderson and Gerrard in the middle could very easily backfire.

JPA

VILLA: Given, Hutton, Collins, Baker, Lichaj, Herd, Bannan, Ireland, Warnock, Agbonlahor, Heskey

Subs: Guzan, Johnson, Carruthers, Gardner, Weimann, Stevens, Williams

Savman

Very weak Villa side tbh. No doubt a draw would make McLeish a happy man (when does it not?)

kevohmsford

haha loving the thread title, come on Doni!!!!!!

Ah sure the cold spell is over, so no need...

Villa are gash, we should be tearing them a new one. Still, i'd be anxious about this one, if the league wasn't as dead as a dodo. Presumably the only reason Carra is playing is because Kenny intends playing him v Everton next week, otherwise its brainless not giving Coates a run out.

While Carroll should probably be dropped for his petulance on principal, i'd still rather him given game time instead of Kuyt. Kuyt is like Carra...loyal servants but we need to move on at this stage and the sooner the better.

kevohmsford

Delighted with the lineup, looking stronger with Carroll on the bench. 3-1 Liverpool

joe123

Spearing has been a disaster to be honest. He tries and can pull off the odd tackle but jesus his passing his shocking.

Saying that of our three midfielders starting not one of them can hold their position and Henderson just goes invisible. Happy to see Shelvey starting again tho.

Jaysis, that's a shocking Villa team.

warnock on the left wing... i foresee bad things

In some ways I feel sorry for Villa, in other ways, well they appointed McCleish so they kinda did it to themselves.

Can you honestly see Villa scoring today??. We've basically got a concrete wall covering our goal.
