KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Your team to keep us top of the league V Southampton ;)

Coutinho looks like a major doubt. Scan today I think. But regardless I'd actually rest him. His performances havev't been great this Season. Maybe the pressure is getting to him especially with no Suarez in the team.

I would drop in Alberto he scored a hat-trick yesterday for the under 21's and performances like that should always be rewarded.

This would do to things. Give Coutinho a week off to recover and push his game forward. And show all the under 21's / fringe players that good performances are rewarded with starts etc..

I would go with...

Mignolet

Wisdom Skrtel Agger Sahko

Gerrard Lucas

Henderson Alberto Moses

Sturridge

Subs

Jones, Kelly, Enrique, Allen, Coutinho, Sterling, Aspas

I'd play that team except Kelly for Wisdom and Enrique for Sakho.

Gerrard Lucas

Henderson Alberto Moses

Sturridge


just wish we had another player like moses to play on the right. very tempted to play ibe there

I'd like to see if we could try Toure in DM for Lucas (the kick up the backside would do no harm) and if Toure starts to tire after being out we can always bring Lucas on later in the game.

Isn't it Gerrard and Lucas that most people have felt have been falling away the first few games?

Agger and Alberto in for Skrtel and Coutinho.

I seem to feel Kelly is ready. I don't wanna see Wisdom anywhere near first team again. He seemed to have lost the only tin I loved about his play-composure on the ball when under pressure cos I'm neither impressed with his positional play nor recovery rate. That said, I feel Alberto would have sky high confidence and would benefit from a start if BR rewards him with one. My team will be

Mignolet

Kelly. Toure. Agger. Enrique

Lucas. Gerrard

Alberto
Hendersson. Moses

Sturridge

We'll now get the chance to see how good the transfer committee has worked when it comes to Alberto.

kelly - agger- toure----enrique

-------gerrard --lucas--------

----------henderson------------

sterling---sturridge-----moses.

Not sure if Kelly is match fit, I think Toure will play right full back with Sakho in the middle, I think Sakho will come good rather sooner than later. The one problem he had in France is not being concentrated all the time. Also, BR plays a left footed player on the right wing, so I think it will be Aspas and I hope he can improve his game.

I would say Kelly will be getting to the stage pretty soon that the only way for him to get fitter is for him to start playing first team football to get used to that intensity again. If he isn't ready for that then I would stick with Wisdom. Would rather see him play there than Kolo as I think he is wasted there and prefer to see him replace Skrtel.
