Holy testicle tuesday

RasTa · 16-10-2009 01:01PM

Gerrard and Torres out for tomorrow.

SlickRic · 16-10-2009 01:07PM

c'mon young David son.

so it'll be, i reckon, and hope...

---Masch---Lucas---
Dirk----Benny---Riera

N'Gog

or, if Dirk's injured, Benny wide and the Vorinator in behind.

Dirk was off in Australia and Masch and Lucas only fly in today from south america AFAIK, could be a tired team. Personally could see Sunderland getting something out of it.

Would love to see Agger get a game.

Oh dear. And against an in-form Sunderland :eek:

The lads better be putting in performances as if their lives depended on it to get a decent result tomorrow. A win is crucial IMO.

On Aquilani - here he is training, at last!

could be a weak team as Rafa normally doesn't play players who play midweek in south america.
can see Sunderland getting a point at least, massive boost for them to hear this.

At least we know Kuyt is ok. I reckon him up front with Riera and Babel supporting. Good chance for Ryan.

What an average team that is

Dublin_Gunner · 16-10-2009 01:32PM

Maybe a slight change of formation could work well.

(not including the back 5)

Babel---Masch--Riera

Benny----

N'Gog---Kuyt---

In a more attacking 4-4-2.

It would certainly be a quick and attacking starting line up.

Mr Alan · 16-10-2009 01:32PM

spockety · 16-10-2009 01:33PM

I predict a convincing Liverpool win.

mike65 · 16-10-2009 01:33PM

:mad:

Both players involved with dead rubbers, Kuyt sent to Oz, Lucas/Masch only back today. GODDAM INTERNATIONALS!

Mr Alan · 16-10-2009 01:35PM

----Mascherano--Lucas

Kuyt

Yossi

Albert

Voronin

would like to see Ngog start up top, but not sure if that'll happen.

SlickRic · 16-10-2009 01:35PM

would you believe, i forgot about ryan. i'll give myself a slap accordingly.

stick him out wide, with kuyt up front. n'gog can be our supersub.

that is not that average a front 6. it's definitely worse without our star men, but it should still have enough to scrape past sunderland if it plays to it's potential.

a win is vital.

i'm going to be cacking myself tomorrow.

Mr Alan · 16-10-2009 01:40PM

LOL i forgot about Babel as well

i agree with Slick.

Mascherano---Lucas

Babel

Yossi

Albert

Kuyt

or

Yossi---Mascherano--Lucas---Riera

Kuyt----Babel

a win tomorrow would be a huge result.

Paul Tergat · 16-10-2009 01:43PM

These are the kind of games where you will really need to show that you are capable of winning titles. 2 of the worlds best out. Utd missing both strikers too but at least we're at home. Going to be an interesting weekend. At least ya dont have any african players and so wont be missing them in Jan.

slingerz · 16-10-2009 01:43PM

benitez has said that kuyt will play up front front so babel, benni, riera behind with Masch and Lucas.

They might actually play better without the 2 boys tomorrow

IRISHSPORTSGUY · 16-10-2009 01:44PM

Excellent news Torres & Gerrard are out.

Hoping Kenwyne will start tomorrow, had a long flight back from international duty.

Gordon

Bardsley - Turner - Ferdinand - Mensah

Malbranque - Cattermole - Cana - Reid

Jones - Bent

We look a totally different propsition this season. Cana in particular is a colossus, hard to believe Marseille let their captain and star player go for only 5 bloody million! Cattermole and Cana make us very rough in the centre, Cana is also a very good footabller. Reid has been a revelation this season because of the weight loss.

2-0 to us.

Fink Goddie · 16-10-2009 01:46PM

Funny how the same people that were saying not so long ago how great the rest of our squad was are worried about tomorrow now!

Dublin_Gunner · 16-10-2009 01:46PM

Thread for discussing Sunderland V Liverpool, 17th October.

I predict a Liverpool win, but I can see Sunderland scoring.

Maybe something along the lines of a 2-3.

_blank_ · 16-10-2009 01:47PM

I want Liverpool to win, I want them to hammer Sunderland actually.

killwill · 16-10-2009 01:48PM

Gerrard and Torres both out. I am going for 2-1 Sunderland. A bit hopefull I know but they are strong going forward.

Bitter about something Des?

spockety · 16-10-2009 01:49PM

Liverpool to win, convincingly.

Nobody will be talking about the abscence of Gerrard and Torres in a negative light on Match of the Day.

sunderland are in form.

we're missing our best players at the same time, away from home.

bloody hell, utd fans are on here saying they're worried too seen as Rooney and Owen are out for them, as well as maybe Berbatov after a long trip back.

i'm still reasonably confident in the rest of our squad; i don't think anyone ever fell over themseves saying how unbelievable it was. but i'm confident.

you miss your best players, always. and it makes you worry somewhat when they're missing, always.

Will Mash play ? Usually gets a rest after an Argie game

Worrying somewhat is not 'cacking yourself'!!!
United still have players on the pitch that can turn a game around, like Giggs to name one, who do we have?? Maybe Yossi, who else?

If he doesnt our midfield will be sh1t and we're royally screwed!

flahavaj · 16-10-2009 01:58PM

This is the kind of match, with their 2 star players missing that true champions would go and win anyway. Massive, massive game for Liverpool.
