Starting 11 next season

How would you set out your regular starting 11 next season? I would like a few more signings, maybe a decent winger like Walcott or Elia or Adam Johnson or even someone like Ben Arfa. But I would start like this;


                                                                 Reina

                                Johnson            Skrtel          Agger             Enrique
                         
                                                        Lucas          Aqualani                   
                                                               
                                                               Gerrard
                                 Suarez                                        Walcott/Sterling/Elia..etc.
                                                   
                                                 Borini/Another decent striker



What do you men think?

I think it will be close to this. I would like to see...

                                                                  Reina

                                Johnson            Skrtel          Agger             Enrique
                         
                                                        Lucas          Aqualani                   
                                                               
                                                               Gerrard
                                     Walcott                                       Dempsey
                                                   
                                                              Suarez
 
Bench: Doni, Coates, Kelly, Shelvey, Henderson, Downing, Cole, Borini

Hope to see some of the youngsters like Sterling and Suso appear in the League cup games.

                                                                 Reina

                                Johnson            Skrtel          Agger             Enrique
                         
                                                        Lucas          Henderson                 
                                                               
                                                               Gerrard
                                 Suarez                                        Sterling / decent winger
                                                   
                                                 Borini/Another decent striker



This is what i think about.  I know Henderson haven't had a  good season, but who had a good season? So i would give him the place in the starting 11. 
Defense:
At the back we look very solid IMO. We still have Carragher with his experiences and Coates in the IV. Kelly to play RB or in the centre as well. Not to forget Flano! We could need a quality back-up for Enrique.

Midfield:
Lucas! I don't have to say anything to this! Henderson is still a young player and i think he will show his talent under BR! Then we still have Jonjo and Spearing to play as holding midfield player. Or Aquilani who good add more creativity to his area.  This isn't and area we have to buy other players.  And we still have the option to play Aquilani in the Gerrard position.

Attack:
Looks pretty cool with Suarez and Borini up front. (Hopefully Borini becomes a decent player for us!)  But we need another player on the other wing! Okay we still have Downing and Cole but i thing we need a little bit more quality in this position. Good to have Downing and Cole AND  Bellamy (if he stays) as replacements in this position but we need a decent winger! I hope Sterling will get a few chances to show his skills! I would pick him over Downing, but i think BR will give Downing the place in the line up!  If Carrol  leaves we need another target striker!

Reina; Johnson, Skrtel, Ageger, Enrique; Lucas, Gerrard, Allen; Suarez/Borini, Walcott, Suarez/Borini.

Doni; Coates, Kelly; Henderson, Shelvey, Downing; Carroll

                                     Reina

Johnson              Skrtel              Agger              Enrique

                                     Lucas

                Gerrard                              Allen

Walcott                         Suarez                         Borini


Subs: Doni, Kelly, Carragher, Aquilani, Henderson, Downing, Dempsey

Total cost - £35m

                                     Reina

Johnson              Skrtel              Agger              Enrique

                                     Lucas

                Gerrard                              Allen

Walcott                         Suarez                         Borini


Subs: Doni, Kelly, Carragher, Aquilani, Henderson,  Caroll, Dempsey

Total cost - £35m

Just changed one thing!!

Wow id be happy with that!!

I'd like it to be:

               Pepe
Johno  Skrtel  Agger  Enrique
               Lucas 
         Stevie    Aqua
 Jovetic    Suarez   Dempsey
 
Subs:  Gulasci, Kelly, Coates, Robinson, Strootman, Borini, G. Ramirez

Squad Players:  Flano, Wilson, Wisdom, Hendo, Shelvey, Suso, Sterling, Teixeira, Pacheco

This would require us to sell Carrol, Downing, Adam, Spearo, Bellamy, and Cole (+30M roughly) and replace them with Jovetic, Dempsey, Gaston Ramirez, and Strootman (-50M roughly).  I would also like to see us add another young CB into the mix as well.  Perhaps Victor Ruiz or Dejan Louvren (-10M roghly).  Net spend would be around 30M. 

Doubt this will ever happen, but I think that team would be capable of playing the style of footie that Rodgers endorses.  Most importantly though, I think this side would have a real shot at aiming for one of the top 3 or 4 spots in the table.

What's with this sell Bellamy nonsense? Does nobody realize he was probably our best winger last season even though he didn't play too much. Think we should try to keep a hold of him for as long as we can, he still adds something to this team and can help out some of the youngsters.

Bellamy was our most dangerous attacking player last season other than Suarez.

But it seems like he's off to Cardiff mate.  He wants to go home, like Maxi.

I don't want him to leave, but it looks like he will. That's why I added him to the list.

Have not seen anything saying that he wants to go back to Cardiff this season. The only thing was that macca guy. I personally have not bought into it until it is confirmed on the website.

I'm going to go a little unconventional.....

Johnson               Skrtel                             Agger                   Enrique


                 Allen                        Lucas                      Dempsey



                Suarez                     Gerrard                   Walcott


Subs: Doni, Borini, Kelly, Shelvey, Coates, Aqualani

Reina; Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique; Lucas, Allen, Gerrard; Walcott, Jovetic, Suarez.

Subs: Doni, Coates, Kelly, Shelvey, Henderson, Downing, Borini.

from what I've seen of what we have now:

                                      Reina

Johnson          Skertl                   Agger                     enrique

                                     lucas

                   Gerarrd                     Aqualani

    Suarez                                                   Bellamy

                                     Borini                   

Reina; Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique; Lucas, Gerrard, Allen; Suarez, Borini, Jovetic

I'd be over the moon.

                                 Reina

Johnson        Skrtel     Dagger             Enrique

                   Lucas      Gerrard/Henderson

 Walcott             Aquilani/Suso               Suarez/Sterling

                          Borini/Suarez

Maybe stick Suarez upfront alongside Borini incase Alberto gets injured. then replace him with Sterling out wide.

Also i've kept Gerrard back to save his legs and ping the ball around like Xabi Alonso.

In terms of transfer amount, we have replaced Torres and Babel with Andy and Luis, Now replacing Andy with Borini and Dempsey!!

So with the transfer kitty say 25mil intact plus a few peanut sales, just get Allen and a TARGET MAN, please for heaven's sake!!

The 4-3-3 could be like

Reina

Johnson/Kelly/Flanno - Skrtel/Carra/Wilson - Agger/Coates - Enrique/(Another LB may be?)/Robinson

Stevie/Aquilani/Jordan - Lucas/Spearing/Adam - Allen/Downing/Teixeira

Suarez /Bellamy/Sterling - Borini/Striker - Dempsey/Cole/Pacheco


Remains to be seen if Aquilani, Bellars and Cole will stay..

No Jonjo?

No Jonjo?

Not for me, i think he could do with a years loan to a club in the prem. Spearing and Adam would be transfer listed. And i would let Bellamy go, he's been great for the club but i'd prefer to blood some youngsters.

To be honest, I had accidentally missed Jonjo but if Adam and one more MF are transfer listed, we gotto keep him cos he could be the mainstay in the European games

                    Reina

Johnson  Skrtel   Agger    Enrique

                   Lucas
     
          Gerrard    Henderson

Suarez       Borini           Sterling/Bellers/Dempsey/Cole (this one is the toss up)

Back 5 more or less picks itself as does Lucas. Just interesting to see who sits in midfield alongside him and if Suarez will start central or on the left possibly? Would be happy with this myself:

                   Pepe

Johnson  Skrtel  Agger   Enrique

           Lucas      Allen
                Gerrard

  Borini      Carroll     Suarez
