Liverpool v SunderlandTue 3rd March 2009 @ 8pm
Anfield Stadium
Torres will still be out injured, as will Arbeloa. Although Gerrard received a knock against Boro he is rated 50/50 to return on Tuesday night. Agger is also still out with a back injury.
I'm hoping for a big performance from both the players AND the supporters. The reds have thrown too many points away from home this season and the fans performance hasn't helped in my opinion. I'd say a mid-week night game should improve things in that respect, but even in European nights the support has been fairly abysmal.
Riera and Babel - both playing as poorly as each other. But I'd give the nod to Riera, reluctantly - unless Aurelio is given the option. Even Dossena on the wing and well away from the defence may be preferable and I never thought I would say that.
I'd like to see Benayoun back in the side as well - El Zhar failed to take advantage of his opportunity on Saturday and doesn't deserve a start.
We're a bit of a walking wounded side at the moment but the team I would like to see play is.
Reina
Darby - Carragher - Hyypia - Insua
Benayoun - Alonso - Mascherano - Riera/Aurelio
Gerrard
Kuyt
If you're in Block 226 in the Upper Anny I expect you to open your mouths and sing.
