The Reds XI in full: Reina, Carragher, Insua, Agger, Kyrgiakos, Mascherano, Lucas, Gerrard, Kuyt, Rodriguez, Ngog.

Subs: Cavalieri, Aquilani, Riera, Aurelio, Babel, Degen, Skrtel.

[Gow]

N'Gog will bag two today. Gerrard the other.

[crouchinho]

No Skrtel is very interesting. But a great bench for once.

Maxi Rodriguez will score his first for us.

Tim Howard own goal and a Tim Cahill missed penalty.

I'm bouncing of the walls for this one! Can't f**king wait.

[Ov3rdose]

2 holding midfielders again? And is Aquilani still injured?

[Ross]

Bit surprised - expected to see Riera and Maxi on the wings with Kuyt up top.

Still - pleasing line-up and it's good to see Agger back.

Come on you Reds!!

[JD]

Good to see Agger back. Kyrgiakos has definitely risen up the ranks now.

Fascinating that Aquilani isn't being risked but Rodriguez comes in for his debut derby. Hmm.

Starting XI: Reina, Carragher, Insua, Agger, Kyrgiakos, Mascherano, Lucas, Gerrard, Kuyt, Rodriguez, Ngog.

I'm not even going to try figure out how that team will line up.  

[chats]

Hope Ngog delivers today.

2-0 to us, Gerrard with both

[RedWilly]

Carra at RB again then. Not pleased with that!

Other than that, looks a decent team, and plenty of options on the bench. Come on lads.

[reddebs]

Looking forward to seeing Maxi from the off today, think he could do some damage.

[crouchinho]

Just seen the line up but who knows what will happen to it during the game:

                     Reina

Carragher  Sotis  Agger  Insua

             Lucas   Masch

 Gerrard      Kuyt       Rodriguez

                   Ngog

[racerx34]

                     Reina

Carra   Kyrgiakos     Agger     Insua

            Lucas       Mascherano

Kuyt             Gerrard               Maxi
        
                     Ngog

Glad to see Ngog get another run and looking forward to see how Maxi does as I thought he played well in the second half against Bolton.
Kyrgiakos needed to counter Cahill and Fellani on the set pieces. Only gripe I have really is Pacheco not even on the bench now

[bad boy bubby]

Fascinating that Aquilani isn't being risked but Rodriguez comes in for his debut derby. Hmm.

Maybe Rafa sees Alberto's future as; back to Roma for £15m and then a loan deal to Celtic.  

[SEANOBYRNE78]

team looks good not to sure how maxi will fare out on the left ! riera on bench which looks strong for a change come on red men !!!!!!

[racerx34]

Maybe Rafa sees Alberto's future as; back to Roma for £15m and then a loan deal to Celtic. 

Its definitely starting to look like Rafa sees it more as Gerrard or Aquilani in the bigger games

[mattmcg]

Good team that, although a little disappointed that Riera isn't starting.  I see soccer saturday are raving about Everton's midfield but ridiculing ours.  Don't know about you but I'd pick every single one of our midfielders over the blueshite. 

Funny I was joking with my younger sister about the football and she asked who was playing, I said Liverpool and she asked who are they playing. I then said Everton and she said she'd never heard of Everton before.  Quite amused me that.

[Johncolf]

Hope Gerrard stays on the right to keep Baines occupied , most of the shites goals come from his assists

I turned over to Football Focus.  They're a gang of clueless morons.

[crouchinho]

Come the f**k on already! It's been half 11 for ages!

[paulrobbo]

I turned over to Football Focus.  They're a gang of clueless morons.

They are indeed. Who the f**k are Matt le Tissier, Charlie Nicholas and Paul Merson?

Why does Thommo bother?

[crouchinho]

4-5-1 for Everton.

Talking like a big club, playing like softshites.

[chats]

Just got into Anfield!

Enjoy the game everyone!

COME ON YOU REDS!!!!!!

[JD]

Aquilani's just been on BBC Sport admitting he still isn't right and is playing in pain.

Bad times.

[racerx34]

1-0.... Lucas header in the 80th minute.......ha ha

Aquilani's just been on BBC Sport admitting he still isn't right and is playing in pain.

Bad times.

Just what we all wanted to hear. That man is made of glass

[Bpatel]

Aquilani's just been on BBC Sport admitting he still isn't right and is playing in pain.

Bad times.

I watched that, feel quite sorry for him. But he seems to have a good attitude and his English is quite good considering he's only been here a few months.

 

[brezipool]

Come on the REDMEN!

[crouchinho]

Sotis got a massive roar there.

He's no Sami, but he's a f**king cult hero!

Come on big fella!

COME ON REDS! F***ing batter that sorry shower of sh*te!

[ayrton77]

We are definitely going to batter them!

All the debate about Kyrgiakos aside, I'm reassured to see him in the centre of defence. Another clean sheet, I reckon, can see this finishing 2-0 again.

Come on Redmen!
