                                               Wednesday 21st December

                                                   Kick off 20.00.

      Following the win at Aston Villa the Red Man march straight on to our encounter with Wigan on Wednesday evening knowing that a win could draw us level with Chelsea on 32 points who are sitting in 4th place.

      Coincidentally Chelsea face another of our rivals in Tottenham the following evening in a game that could carry some significance in our quest to make up points on the top 4 teams.

      Looking forward to this one and I expect Kenny to ring some changes to keep the squad fresh over the hectic xmas schedule but I still expect us to have too much for Wigan who are sitting in the relegation places.

      C'mon the Redmen.

      Tends to be a tricky game, away at Wigan, if I can remember correctly. Need to keep the momentum going,if we are to push for that 4th spot.

      This for me is the game where we are going to hand out the thrashing we've been threatening all season, I'm going for a 5 nil win for us.

      Be interesting to see if/how Kenny rotates over the next 3 games before a hectic January.

      Wouldnt surpriese me to see a couple for this then same thing again vs Blackburn to keep things fresh. As well as the Skrtel/Agger partnership has been performing maybe bring Carra in for Agger for one of these matches just based on his injury track record?

      Can see Carroll starting this too, either way, lets smash these!

      Same starting lineup for me. The only change I could see would be Maxi for Shelvey, but I don't think it's necessary. Nobody performed poorly enough to be outright dropped.

      Hopefully Tuesday's "news" will allow for Suarez to still play.

      The thing I noticed about KK, regardless of an individual playing poor or not in the last game, it matters not as Daglish will play the players he feels are suited for the next match.

      I do feel couple of players played poor despite our win.

      I'd love to see:

      Same back 5

              Shelvey  Adam
                      Maxi
      Downing  Kuyt   Suarez

      Can't see Bellamy playing due to his well documented knee problems.

      Potential kick in the arse here if our lads dont have the same approach as Sunday. If we turn up we should own the ball and hopefully will take the chances.

      Same 11 for me and if God forbid we lose Luis Id actually plumb for Kuyt to go up top and have Carroll to bring on from the bench

      I'm not sure if Bellers should be starting 2 games in 4 days because of his knee problems, so I'd look to have him on the bench this weekend.  Hopefully the FA don't pull any bullshit and Suarez is cleared of any wrongdoing.  I would like to see:

                       Pepe
      Johno  Skrtel  Agger  Enrique
                Hendo  Adam
      Downing    Jonjo       Maxi
                     *Suarez*

      If Luis is not eligible then I'd start Carrol up top.  We should have enough to beat Wigan without Suarez, and Andy needs to step up to the plate sometime soon!!  I'm going for another 2-0 win for the Reds!!

      I think Mo Diame would be a good piece of business for us in the jan transfer window, I'll be watching him pretty closely.

      Simply put this is a match we need all 3 points from, and I think we will do just that. Henderson to score for me

      Me too mate. Have been raving about him for awhile. He drives Wigan forward at times.

      We should be overturning teams like Chief Wigum.
      But they generally turn out to be a tricky stopoff.
      Still, we're so good away I'm going for another win, with Suarez finding the back of the net ...

      Just about to post and the p.c. crashed. Shortened version, 3 - 0 to us. Hoping for 5. Good time to make up some ground and ease into the top 4. :kop5cf8koxp6:

      Another game on Sky then, good stuff.

      I'd just change Downing and Bellamy over for Kuyt and Maxi. Rest of the line up should stay the same in my opinion, we haven't played too many midweeks so far so I'd say we are pretty fresh compared to the teams in Europe.

      2-0 again I'm going for. Would love more but I'd rather save them for the cup next month against City.

      I want the same team but Maxi replaces Downing and I hope Adam and Henderson boss this midfield for once. They were good but not great neither forward nor at defending.

      If we're leading 1or2- 0 in HT, Carroll replaces Suarez :)
