KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum your starting 11 for this season

Guys what would your ideal red's starting line up this season..
mine would be sumthing like this

Reina
Johnson
Carrager
Skrtel/Agger
Insua
Mascherano
Gerrard
Kuyt
Benayoun
Riera
Torres

Gerrard to play in a deeper position(Xabi old pos) until aquilani returns
Kuyt@ right wing.Riera at Left wing.Benayoun to play in the hole just behind torres.

What do u guys think?........

Agree!!

I would be incline to play Gerrard there all season anyway and try Aquilani in that spot.Gerrards gonna score goals anywhere he plays on the pitch. His just that kinda player. If we can develop Alberto to start scoring a fair few goals aswell. We can spread the work rate.

Mine would be:

Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Aurelio
Benayoun Mascherano Reira
Aquiliani
Gerrard
Torres

Kuyt to play in the "hole" before Aquiliani returns, and Gerrard to play in the offensive mid position before Aquiliani returns.

I like this one, only i will swap kuyt and benayoun to change the style, 2ndly Aquilani was bought to play further up field than alonso did. I see you omitted CaRRA, THE LIVERPUDLIANS WONT LIKE THAT. lol

Well, as a Liverpool fan I LOVE Carragher. But he's getting past his prime. About time we showed what the pairing of Skrtel and Agger can do! Give the pairing a chance.

Skrtel as the no-holds-barred tough tackler, and Agger as the elegant playmaker from defence!

agger, when fit, has to be first choice - we struggle without his ability to bring the ball out of defence ...... that is one thing carra really should do more - he does have the ability to do it but he is so obsessed with defending he doesn't use his ability to the fullest ....... it's about time he was given a bit more freedom to show how much ability he actually has

Well, it would have to be Agger or Skrtel. Can't have 2 ball playing centerbacks....

And I chose Agger because he obviously has a lot more potential, not to mention a cracking left foot as well!

And as for a tough tackler, I'll have Skrtel over Carra.

Tough choice, will have to be 2 of of above 3, but I feel we didn't see enough of the Skrtel-Agger pairing to truly judje if it works. Doesn't help Agger is so often on the treatment table!

Reina
Johnson Carra Agger Insua
Masch Aquilani
Kuyt Gerrard Benayoun
Torres

its a system we know and have been so effective with over the last few years. with Aquilani adding that little bit more of an attacking threat than Alonso i think it could really work!!

When everybody's fit:

Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Insua

Masch
Kuyt Aquilani Yossi

Gerrard

Torres

Guys, what about Aurelio?

1. Is he a better left-back than Insua?
2. He seems to be a good passer of the ball as well. Perhaps he can step in as the "playmaker" from time to time?

What do you think? Aurelio undoubtedly has talent, and a relatively good range of passing. On the negative side he is not the fastest player nor the most aggressive (re Mad Masch). So where shold Aurelio play?
