      Swansea 3-1 Liverpool: In game and Post Match Debate
      May 01, 2016 11:00:27 am







      Luch time at Liberty Stadium












      On this day in 1965 Liverpool win the FA Cup for the first time, beating Leeds 2-1 in the final.


      Starting XI: Ward, Clyne, Skrtel, Lovren, Smith, Stewart, Chirivella, Ibe, Ojo, Coutinho, Sturridge

      Subs: Mignolet, Benteke, Lallana, Lucas, Brannagan, Teixeira.

       Martin Skrtel captains Liverpool against Swansea City this afternoon as Jürgen Klopp makes eight changes at the Liberty Stadium.

      The centre-back leads a team that includes Danny Ward in goal and Daniel Sturridge up front.

      Pedro Chirivella, Jordon Ibe, Sheyi Ojo, Brad Smith and Kevin Stewart are also brought in for the 12pm BST kick-off.

      The Reds have only named six substitutes as Connor Randall is suffering illness.

      I'm still not sold on young chirivella from what I've seen briefly. Very glad to see he's going to get a full game that gives him a proper chance to show what he's got.

      Martin Skrtel will be the 10th different captain this season. He will skipper their youngest league starting XI of the campaign.

      Thought he did well in the earlier Europa League games, has looked promising when he's been brought on, good to see him get a start.

      If both sides play footie, we'll win. Concerns are the defense against aerial balls and the back six bar Lovren looks suspect.

      Both sides to score with LFC returning with the 3 points.

      This day in 1965 will remain in my memory for ever.If todays players show as much determination and courage as the 1965 REDS did there will only be one result and that has to be a win for us. :kop5cf8koxp6:

      Does Sturridge now think he will not be playing Thursday ?. I think there are places up for grabs so today is a good day for players to shine.

      I don't know what the bigger piss take is. The fact this match is at midday or Sturridge starting which clearly means he won't in the more important match on Thursday.

      A team sheet at 8pm? What is this sorcery? :D

      Can't wait to see Chirivella. Love his type of midfield profile in a player.

      Ojo another chance to impress and Ibe another chance to save his career here.

      No major surprises there.  Thought he may have rested Lovren as well for Ilori or Caulker or someone.

      Up the reds. 

      Let's put some pressure on United.

      if he comes off after 45 or 60 mins he will start Thursday. I think this is part of his re-education.Its brutal isn't it

      Sturridge will probably only be on for the first half and second half against Villarreal maybe, I like getting to see the young players in proper games. So can't wait now!

      Sturridge will start on Thursday, chill your beans people. I expected a vastly rotated team so I'm not surprised by any of those are starting but I'm very surprised that our worst centre back is somehow captain. I'm a big fan of Smith, Ojo and Chirivella so I'm excited to see them get some more game time.

      Let's hope the young lads do have good games mate or I might be tempted to start an alternative match thread where only followers of the Academy can post. 

      The fallout could be monumental in here if they misplace any passes or lose out on a tackle and god forbid they're in the wrong position if Swansea score  ;)

      Maybe best if I just logoff and watch the game in peace  xxxxx:action-smiley-065:

      If Klopp is managing Sturridge (health) why not play him in the games that are most important (Europa)?

      I wonder will we see Teixeria on for Coutinho at some point, although I think it's too late to save his Liverpool career now. Interesting to see how Ojo links up with Sturridge, he can create the space for Sturridge vto get chances.
