after the gomel match rodgers referred to a front 4 not 3. BR seems to be a 433 man. 433 is a formation for keeping the ball and tiring your opponents and picking them off, i believe the vast majority of barca's goals come in the final 15mins of the halves that's something we're moving towards. however right now it much more effective for us to play a more aggressive attacking formation with gerrard high up the pitch. i'd except gerrard to be deeper against the big teams.

i got a good felling about this game unlike last few seasons where we have looked really cr&p in preseason this year we look like we are in better shape

Depending on whether Rodgers sees this as a game for Carroll depends on the personnel, but I think he'll stick with 4-3-3 or 4-1-2-3.
Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique
Lucas
Gerrard Allen/Shelvey
Downing Borini/Carroll Suarez

If Carroll plays then Downing should be on the left instead.
