Had Henderson pegged as future captain last season, he has everything in his locker for the role.

Delighted for him.

I wonder will we get to see him captain the team soon?

Surely Gerrard will need to be rested now we have games coming thick and fast.

Delighted for Henderson, rarely has a bad game and his off the ball work is priceless to this team. His energy and ability to get up and down the pitch for 90 mins is unreal. Not just a work horse either he can create and score, although I would like to see more of that.

"Our new vice-captain. He has worked his socks off for this honour. Well done mate."

Fluffy piece here on F365 which will pass a few mins for anyone bored out of their mind at work

Tonight I would go

_____________Mignolet______________
Manquillo____Lovren____Sakho___Moreno
____________Gerrard_______________
____Henderson________Coutinho______
_____________Lallana_______________
________Sterling________Balotelli______

Allen is injured & Markovic is suspended. Sterling could be useful in a front 2.

Yes I would go with that too, or swap Lallana and Coutinho. Sterling up top is needed as without sturridge we miss that lightning pace upfront, Balotelli is no slouch but he doesn't have that burst of pace over the first few yards.

Liverpool FC's plans for the extension of Anfield stadium have been recommended for approval by Liverpool council planners.

Elected members of the planning committee will now visit Anfield next Tuesday before voting on the scheme.

Must be CL only as it's not sponsored by Garuda. Get on it Mr Ayre, more money.

Think clubs always have different cl training gear, the garuda sponser thing is gone as i dont think its allowed. Same when we were in the europa, we had purple tops with orange shirts which was.....interesting.

Hope so, would like to see what formation we'd use without him, and now we play. I don't buy into the belief that he's so important to the team, and that the young guns need him on the pitch. If anything, when the pressure comes on, he tries to hard to make things happen, which is what you don't need. Would love to see us play a few games without this "quarterback" deep lying midfielder, would be great to have a DM that gets in tackles and breaks up play

Would like to see Kent and Canos either side of Sinclair, with Rossiter, Phillips & Brannagan behind.
Dunno what defense he'll put out...

Free on LFCTV at the moment: The Road to Istanbul - Episode 1

Edit: this is well worth a watch. Totally forgot about Gerrards 1st goal in the qualifiers. Owen on the bench.

9 players that started the qualifier against Graz started the champions league final!!

Defence? What defence?

It may be enhanced by the angle of the photo, but you can see how much bulk Sterling put on in a short time. Amazing really.

That age is just perfect for gaining size naturally. Won't do that in your 30's very easily without assistance.

Bet you he'll end up with a similar physicality to Ronaldo. And then he'll be a fcuking beast of a player.

Hope he has a long career with us.

If markovic is suspended i hope suso is on the bench, borini didnt do much the other day so i wonder if he will be on the bench or in the stands.

Finally today has come. Can't wait!

I'm really nervous about the game tonight, a bad result and it could really shake the confidence of this team

Could say the same about every game. I think Balo would benefit greatly from a goal, but Lallana being in the side is postivie, and Raheen (sic) coming back in, and every game the back 4 plays together will improve them...
