Reina, Kelly, Carra, Greek, Aurelio, Poulsen, Lucas, Maxi, Cole, Jova, Babel is the starting line-up. Still no Aquilani. Have a feeling he's leaving to free up funds for a striker.
Go strong and hopefully we can remove Stevie and Nando before the end. If it goes really well we can give a couple of the youngsters a run in the second leg.
Right guys would it not make sense if he puts out his strongest team to get us into the group stage of the Europa and also get his team and tactics ready for mondays game.. And then in the group stages he can rest players.. Getting into the group stages means more revenue for the club and keeps our fringe players sharp and some much needed european experience..
am not too fussed about the European cup, yes it would be nice to win it but i rather give 100% concentration on finishing as high as we can in the PL. i would give all of the top players a rest in order for them to be 100% fit and hopefully injury free. am not saying not play them at all but only bit parts. give our fringe and young players a platform to learn there trade.
its a bit disappointing how liverpool dont REALLY send there youngster out on loan to get match practise in the english league. man u seem to send every tom dick and harry and they come back better players. ( I know a few have but not enough in my humble opinion )
If Roy wins with Liverpool tonight he will have achieved something only the great Bill Shankly achieved, winning his frist 3 european games. No pressure Roy!
Lets hope some more comparisons can be made in the future.
