I'm hoping Yesil gets some game time on Thursday. Really looking forward to seeing what he may be able to offer to the team. It's important for us not not expect too much of him, but it would be amazing if he could make an instant impact - god knows we need someone who can put the ball in the net for us. Had deadline day not turned out as it had, I don't think we'd be seeing him for a while, but it looks like he's now being fast-tracked into the first team picture.

Think we need to field our strongest team on Thursday, just think we have been unlucky with this group as it's a really tough one and will go close to the wire to see who goes through. I think if we field our strongest team we can maybe rest a few for the United game were we could maybe pack the defence and grab a point, think united and ourselves would both be happy with a point myself.

Did someone not say he was cup tied?

Silly comment. For one, a draw may not be the WORST result in the world, but we'll be looking to win it, and rightly so. Secondly, if we went into a home game against them just packing the defence looking for a draw, there'd be no way we'd be getting one. As I say, silliness.

think you are being silly myself not understanding the game nowadays, United will come for a point probably, if you offered Sir Alex that beforehand he would take it, United will set up not to get beat, they wont be too adventurous with probably one up front, they will try and sneek a goal on the break. I think after the mistake Rogers made against Hearts and knowing the team is not strong enough to play two games in a week he will have to prioritise one, for me thursday is much more important as it's our best hope of success out of the two competitions, I think if we set out for a draw against United with one up front and a midfield of Shelvey, Gerrard, Allen, Sahin and maybe Downing as he can fill with either Borini or Suarez as the lone striker that team is more than capable of getting a point.

What? If we shut up shop against United let alone any other team you would be the first one to jump on the bandwagon. We should aim to win thursday and sunday. I dont get this shyte with our fans whenever we play on a thursday talking about resting players and what not, there paid 100k a week they can play. We'll probably lose to Young Boys, beat United and then lose to Norwich next week

listen your talkin to the wrong person if you think I am disagreeing with you about fielding weakend teams, I dont believe in it but unfortunately in this day and age, players are brainwashed into believing they cant and we are one of those teams. If your askin me what I think will happen well I think Rogers will probably field all the kids against Young Boys, we will probably get beat, he will bring back all the first team regulars against United and we will probably still get beat, so it will be pointless fielding a weak team on Thursday and risking not progressing from the group.

great to see him given a chance. equally as good to see the likes of suso, robinson, flanagan and assaidi given a game too.

important that we don't put too much pressure on them early on though, we can't expect immediate fireworks. yesil looks good, got the potential and hopefully he'll be hungry to impress.

if he can bring the sort of quality he's had at youth international level then he's going to be a top player.

really excited to see suso come through aswell. i think his style of play, being a technical gifted player will suit the rodgers system.

young boys will be tough opposition in my opinion though. i remember them at home giving tottenham a very good game in the champs league quals a couple of seasons ago.

Guys, lets get things straight.

Liverpool aims to win every game, home or away. It is that simple.

United will come looking for a win. that is their mentality too. They play to win every game they are involved in. that is the ethos of a great club. We are not so different.

Not anymore. Hereneeven got knocked out so he is in the clear now to compete in the group stages.
