10 points of fourth with a game in hand ITS TIME TO GET TO WORK

I think GH will get a good recepton I hope he does. We need to win this one to have any chance of having merely the slightest chance of having a run for fourth.

I think we'll beat them into the following week. Spurs away looked much more of a turning point than chelsea home. And , unfortunately so, with carra and stevie off the rest of the teams' backs (We are liverpool don't ya know) we will trounce the villains monday evening. Hodgepodge will be smiling for sure but Ged will get the songs. Respect is harder to earn than money don't ya know

I wouldnt play Cole (he needs a spell in the reserves) or Kuyt (who has been our worst player in the last few weeks). I would play Ngog as the second striker and babel on the right wing.

kuyt's been injured mate in the last few weeks same as cole. I'd give Jova the nod tmrw ahead of ngog just to give him that chance. Ngog will be a great player and is proving such, he's time on his side. Jova with Torres tmrw give the guy a go.

Cole in the hole or in the reserves.

-------------Reina--------------
-Johnson--Soto--Skrtel--Konch---
-Maxi--Meireles--Lucas--Aurelio-
--------Torres----Jovanovic-----

Bench: Jones, Shelvey, Ecclestone/N'Gog, Kelly, [Pacheco/Cole], Wilson, Kuyt

That way Roy can play his favoured 2 banks of 4, and Torres can feed Jovanovic.

Perhaps I should explain why I don't have Pacheco, Cole, and N'Gog fighting for one slot on the bench. If we have them running before us (unlikely, but they're one of the 3 sides with a worse away record than us so far this season), then I'd pull both Torres and Jovanovic around the 70 minute mark and put Pacheco and N'Gog on in their place. If we're going to try build towards something but without much investment, then these two will be our future pairing and it's best they spend some match time together. I would also then seriously consider bringing Shelvey on as well for the last 10 - future core player as well.
