Flanagan was involved today, I think he'll start on Tuesday. Sakho should also be back.

They only have Lucas out in their front 6, so it'll be a very difficult match. Their back 4 looks shaky, but this won't count for as much if they're on the front foot.

We need to get at them, and get at them early.

Well surely Johnson, Enrique, Lucas, Agger and Allen are first teamers? I only ask cos god knows what team that clown Brenda normally picks.

pienaar coleman barkley start
 

TBH, unless we get Barkley and Coleman in that team (minimum from the injured list), we're getting nothing from that Derby.

I've already mentally chalked these three points off.

We need full strength in order to compete in a Derby. I'd be over the moon if we could go there without our very best and beat them. But it's not happening.

Martinez's next press conference will be very interesting. We need a tonic for the troops on the injury front. If those lads are anywhere near match fit he needs to get them on that pitch. No waiting for the next ;big game' against Arsenal or whatever. derby's are momentum givers.
 
I'll be honest, I would rather hibbo than stones in this sort of game, whilst he's useless going forward he is a solid defender and I think would offer a bit more protection at the back, also he could put in a solid tackle on rat boy

Never lose the faith, Dave.

We'll actually be going there for a win for once. Even with injuries, I'd say the teams are still fairly well matched, albeit slightly in Liverpool's favour.
 
I also think Deulofeu will make the bench btw. These are all just sneaky feelings.

Don't have any sneaky feelings about Coleman or Pienaar unfortunately.

no offense mate but you said earlier when DaveK was worried about injuries not too worry then Oviedo broke his leg and jags pulled his hamstring, enough of the positivity man :lol:

Mentally, this would be an absolutely huge boost.

Imagine them all being dead pleased Ross isn't playing before he rifles the winner in from 25 yards.

Mate I honestly think he'll start. And we're all gonna be "buzzing" when we see his name on the team sheet.

Rodgers will soil himself.
