    Largely inexperienced Liverpool team playing away from home. You'd imagine home advantage would be just that, an advantage. Likewise, will Napoli be less of a proposition away from home.
    Good point, never thought about it like that, strange there is no Torres on the bench though, or pacheco.

    Well I for one hope liverpool win, they need as much confidence as possible going into the weekend so they can hopefully stiff chelsea.

    One can dream :(

    If his performances in training were good enough I'm sure he would be. Shelvey is starting so its not as if Hodgson is fearful of giving young players a chance.

    It's not about giving young players a chance it's about giving a certain type of player a chance, it's been like this for years.

    4 cms in the starting line up, 3 centre backs 2 centre mids and a centre forward on the bench. Does Roy have something against width?

    I just don't understand why he is not even giving an opportunity from the bench to probably the potentally best young player we've had in years.

    He was far from the worst against Northampton, and he's not been seen since

    He was our best against northampton, not hard, but was the best for me. Dont get it, dont get it at all.

    Is Roy making an example of Pacheco after the Northampton game? He hasn't been seen since iirc.

    Well he was about the 10th worst player on the pitch for us that night

    Pacheco does'nt deserve this kind of treatment. He is an unbelieveable talent and i hope he put's in a transfer request as we are holding him back at this club.:mad:

    Makes you wonder, what good is this new Borini fellow to provide the talent, if Hodgson won't recognise it when it's there in front of him.

    I agree, just trying to figure out what our great manager is up to.

    Pacheco's being rested 'cos he's going to feature against Chelsea on Sunday with Cole out.

    I think there's a bit of a hissy fit being thrown here by some regarding Pacheco. I think if he's performing well enough in training he'd be getting that chance.

    Dirkaldinho in the studio on 5. I flicked it on just there and he was talking about being lucky a horse didnt fall on him or something :eek: or he would have been out for a very long time.

    Roy has not been logical in anything he has done this season

    Yes, thats a good point. Still, he's dropped Shelvey in the deep end.

    Spearing has got more game time than him. Say's it all about where the club is headed under Hodgson. Just want him out pronto.

    I'd assume Pacheco isn't doing it in training, although I did expect him to at least be on the subs bench. Still think the team selected should beat Napoli.

    I'm going for a 2-1 win.

    Isn't resting torres and gerrard ahead of the chelsea game logical?

    That's probably one of the least concerning parts of this team selection tbh

    The only difference would be Phil Babb would be replaced by the Trololo bloke.

    no Pacheco for this is nothing short of a disgrace.

    and that team as defensive as it is just as disgraceful.

    and Mereiles RW again.

    fúcking **** **** **** ****

    This thread is just unbelievable. You have won your last two Premier League games and got a good draw away to Napoli and here we are with people who think they know better than the manager still. Just unbelievable, criticising a team selection before a game even starts.

    Like you actually have a clue and this Pacheco thing. Was he with the squad? how has he been playing of late? Any chance he is on a weight training program or something? Or that he has a knock or anything?
