Liverpools lineup today

jonno

Well this is a change. I think Diuof on the wing makes sense cos he made alot of runs against Man city albeit into the corner flag. But he linked up with Mellor well a few times that day.

Kirkland

Carragher
Henchoz
Hyypia
Riise

Murphy
Diao
Gerrard
Diouf

Mellor
Owen

PS: Hope I wont be eating my words later. Fingers corossed:p

Im the eternal optimist

TwoShedsJackson

At least Vlad the Inhaler isn't there.

So will we try and increase our lead by ATTACKING.....or will we defend deep, let Villa have all the chances and end up losing 2-1.

Only time will tell...

jonno

Oh ya West Ham lead Newcastle 2-1. Early days yet but its looking nice at the moment.

I liked that lineup.
I think I like any lineup that does not have Taore as he cannot play.

I thought Mellor is/was greedy. He likes to shoot from anywhere.

Quigs Snr

I was at the match, behind the goal for both goals.

Diouf was awful, and was not held in kind regard by the majority of fans around me, lots of calls of Rubbish etc......... Mellor was also ineffective against a painfully ordinary Villa side. The really needed Hamann's aggresive tackling and passing ability, because half the time they were playing head tennis, very very ugly football. What had to beat all tho's was smicea, when he came on it looked like he had just gotten out of bed, the man was a danger to himself and his teammates.

First time I was ever at Anfield and heard the team booed by the home fans at the final whistle, for what they perceived as a lack of giving a sh**. 15 Minutes to go and it looked like they were settling for a draw, that seemed to get peoples backs up.

Still a fantastic atmosphere tho' scarves up at the start to a chorus of you'll never walk alone, shame the team doesn't have the heart to match that of the fans. Houllier has bought too much filler, not enough thriller and they don't even have the fight in them to compensate. By the way, Cheryou was terrible when he came on. Didn't look very comfortable with the ball at all.

Waylander

Why does he persist in playing strikers as wingers on the left. Is Cheyrou not a natural left winger?

Thanx 4 The Fish

No he isn't. Mellor plays on the left wing, can't understand why he is being played up front at the moment.

BKtje

Seems to be taking a page outta Mick McCarthy's book with playing wingers up front and most others outta position.

jonno

Cheyrou is a left midfielder, well thats where I heard he played in the French youths anyway.

Latest news from the Blackburn camp is that Duff wont be leaving, but thats what Souness is saying anyway.

Waylander

So Cheyrou is a natural left midfielder, if not a winger. Why then does GH keep playing strikers out there.

Space Coyote

Because GH has totally lost the plot basically.
He hasnt played the same first eleven in 2 consecutive games in over 2 years in the Prem. How can a team in any sport perform to their ability if there's no stability or consistency. Not possible.
I think he must have Alzeimers or Parkinsons coz there's definitely something gone in his head.
