Reina, Kelly, Agger, Coates, Carragher, Lucas, Spearing, Henderson, Maxi, Carroll, Suarez.

Subs: Doni, Aurelio, Kuyt, Adam, Bellamy, Skrtel, Flanagan.

Hope it's a 4-3-3

Interesting to see Aurelio make the bench but Agger start at LB.

I think its likely to be 4-4-2 with Maxi and Henderson wide. Should be good enough (touch wood)

Very strong! Let's tw*t 'em!!

Looking for an improvement from Coates.  Be a big test for him tonight.

Wouldn't say no to a couple of goals from Carroll and I also hope Rodriguez takes his chance to put more pressure on the first teamers.

Going to be a difficult game this but hopefully we can correct the harsh result the other month.

We have a winning capable team, come on reds. ynwa

Didn't see Coates against Rangers, was he as bad as reported?

I didn't see him then either. 

Was referring to Brighton mainly.

Lets hope we're clinical in front of goal tonight. Strong team.

Hope we can just come away with a win, even from some lame ass scrappy own goal.

Imagine it's a 3-5-2 with Kelly and Maxi playing wing backs but I doubt that! Agger playing LB .. don't really fancy that, to be honest.

I just want the lads to go out there and get a win,a win is a win is a win and takes us through to tje next round.Oh and Carra keep your hands down,no penalties.

Bit worried about Coates agianst Stoke's style of play I've got to say.

Need a few goals quick.Straight from the start come on redmen!!!

Bit worried about Coates agianst Stoke's style of play. I've got to say.

I think, if anything, he'll thrive here, being about 12 feet tall and all.

I'd have went with a much stronger line up myself tonight, its a chance to progress to the quarter finals, but in King Kenny we trust, I just hope he has got his selection right tonight, can't be arsed with all the bitching that will follow if not.

C'mon the red men.

Didn't see Coates against Rangers, was he as bad as reported? 

He was pretty poor.

Glad to see a strong team, I'd really like to win that competition, a trophy is always a trophy.

I guess if Coates looks troubled Kenny will go for a 3-5-2. Will be good for him learning from Agger and Carra.
 Aurelio and Kelly will play as wingbacks then.

Just a thought on the formation.It isn't fixed with the fullback bombing on its 3-2-5 when we are under pressure its 4-5-1 so dont get hung up about Kenny's formations good teams adapt to the needs of the game.
An early goal for us would be a good start for a change hopefully the posts and bar will not need repainting after the game tonight.

Hope it's a 4-3-3

I think, looking at that team sheet, it has to be Red5man and like you, I hope it is.

I reckon we've a stronger squad (all round) this season and believe this team will prove it. C'mon the Reds! 

Worth pointing out that we made 8 changes and still have what most of us would agree is a relatively strong team.

Hendo should play under Luis and Andy, I have faith in hendo, he will get better and better.

Worth pointing out that we made 8 changes and still have what most of us would agree is a relatively strong team.

Amazing when compared to last season if we made 8 changes, Joe Cole, Christian Poulsen, Paul Konchesky, etc. would of been in the team. Now it's a team that could beat any out there.
