Any news on Gerrard's fitness? any inside info anyone? I think we'll be ok against Blackpudding on Saturday without him, but we need him for Chelski on Tuesday or it's game over I fear.

in the squad but I cant see him starting

we should have enough to beat blackburn without him, let him rest up for chelski then arsenal!!

Don't think he should be risked if not totally fit as i think we should have enough to deal with blackburn without him, play Yossi just behind Torres

lets go 4-4-2

reina
arbeloa, carra, agger, aurelio
benni, masch, xabi, riera
torres, kuyt

just go for the throat from the 1st min!!!!

C'MON THE REDS!!!!

Not a bad call red but I can't see Rafa going that way.

looks like Rafa will gamble on Gerrard tonight... and what a gamble! Hope it pays off as I'd prefer Gerrard playing at his peak for the rest of the Premiership games than getting a long term injury by trying to get 3 goals back at the bridge

Next game is a while off (cup weekend coming up).

As long as he's fit for the Arsenal game (even if he takes a knock) I'm not fussed. But if the likelihood is that if he aggrevates the injury and will deffo miss Arsenal, I'd be a no I'm afraid.

Just play 4-2-4 (YES 4-2-4) with: - Reina, Arbeloa, Carra, Agger, Aurelio, Xabi, Masch, Benayoun, Kuyt, Torres, Babel.

Get those wingers high up there, and get it to the forwards quickly and directly. Knock downs for Benayoun and Babel.

Let's just go mad and all-out attack them all game. Shake them a bit and see what happens. They don't have JT, so pump some long balls to Torres and Kuyt in the middle. Vidic couldn't cope, so without JT, let's see what the chelsea central defence is all about!!!!

2 midfielders against the side that absolutely destroyed us in Midfield last week?

IMO Best to go 4-2-3-1 as all Liverpools best football has been over the past couple of seasons and pray we can get an early goal if we go at them first ten, Chelsea fans are woeful and would turn on there team early.

the thing we most need is for our midfield to be at least on par with theres.

Back to the league then........
