Pretty sure this is correct

Yeah that seems to be the updated one now. I'd be happy enough with that if i was a Utd fan, Chica is full of confidence atm.

that imo is our strongest 11 atm

Same here .

Gerrards role/position is crucial and Johnson needs to be 100% improved .

SlickRic · 09-01-2011 12:27PM

right, this is just a friendly warning post to all.

firstly, yes, there'll be at least 2 mods on today for this.

but also, and more importantly for all of you, there will be absolutely ZERO TOLERANCE in terms of what happens in here.

we will not hesitate to hand out infractions and bans to people acting the douche and going against the charter.

NO EXCUSES.

the secret to it is this, it's quite simple, but absolute genius really...'think before you post'....and you'll be absolutely fine.

also, if it gets out of hand, we'll have no hesitation in closing the thread for a while, so don't ruin it for everyone. and if it does close, anyone opening a new thread will be banned.

thank you.

I suppose it will be just Kelly in for Johnson

His wife in labour apparently.

empireofthekop twitter Joe Cole is out (injured)

Not much of a loss going on his form this season. Wonder who will take his place on the bench.

Edit - Here we go.

Kenny Dalglish has named his first Liverpool team since his return to the dugout for this afternoon's FA Cup third round clash with Manchester United. Listen live online from 1.25pm GMT.

Glen Johnson is absent because his wife is in labour, while the likes of Daniel Agger, Martin Kelly and Fabio Aurelio return for what is bound to be a memorable day at Old Trafford.

The team in full is: Reina, Aurelio, Kelly, Agger, Skrtel, Meireles, Lucas, Maxi, Kuyt, Gerrard, Torres. Subs: Gulacsi, Kyrgiakos, Wilson, Shelvey, Poulsen, Ngog, Babel

Reina

As a United fan I would like to see some fringe players in the starting 11 but really hope the inclusion of Evans is wrong.

18 months ago I saw him as long term replacement for Rio and looked ready to step in. Since then he's gone backwards so far that I really don't want him anywhere near the staring 11.

Mitch Connor · 09-01-2011 12:36PM

Apparently the team is:

Kuszczak, Raf, Evans, Rio, Evra, Giggs, Carrick, Fletcher, Nani, Chico, Berbatov.

Not at all happy with Evans playing, he has been an utter liability all season.

IvySlayer · 09-01-2011 12:37PM

Is Vidic injured or something?

SlickRic · 09-01-2011 12:37PM

it's been a long time since Agger and Skrtel together in central defence.

that's potentially our best defence IMO.

about time.

oh, and absolutely shocked Smalling isn't playing and Evans is.

a bonus given their respective form.

Apologies!

King Jenny? Pahah! Can only think that's because of the qwerty keyboard on my phone...

Anyway, Berbatov and Hernandez up front sounds good to me if that's the way it'll be. The little pea will be a threat in the air from set pieces where Liverpool are weak.

redzerdrog · 09-01-2011 12:39PM

ok i am going to let the heart rule

man utd 1 - 3 Liverpool

:p:p:p

Oh dear. I can't help but feel that Evans will be at the centre of things and not in a good way.

shotamoose · 09-01-2011 12:41PM

Very pleased with that Liverpool team, hope it's indicative of how Kenny intends to play in the league in terms of formation and inclusion of Agger and Aurelio (when fit obviously!).

Dave! · 09-01-2011 12:41PM

Good to see 442 from United, should be a good, open match.

I'm not optimistic if I'm honest. Liverpool have their best team out. Definitely wish Rooney was playing.

Mars Bar · 09-01-2011 12:41PM

Where's Vidic?! :eek:

smokedeels · 09-01-2011 12:41PM

Evans ffs, I don't know what's happened to that lad, I'm not expecting much from him.

I'm less confident about this match now.

Handsome Bob · 09-01-2011 12:41PM

No real shocks from our starting XI, but it'll be interesting to see how the backline fares.

efb · 09-01-2011 12:42PM

oh 3-3 thriller anyone!

ITV/UTV/Setanta AFAIK

SK1979 · 09-01-2011 12:43PM

The only explanation seems to be that SAF views Smalling as his Rio replacement and Evans as his Vidic one.

Really worried about Evans playing though.

smcelhinney · 09-01-2011 12:44PM

Any streams available ?

CR 7 · 09-01-2011 12:44PM

Good to see we're sending out a weakened team, we really need to rest players for big games. Our reserves are more than good enough to win this.
