Norwich Vs Liverpool: Sat 29 Sept 2012 K.O. 1500 BST

Vs

Norwich City         Liverpool F.C.

3pm K.O. Not on UK TV.

Carrow Road

After Wednesdays very nice win with the youngsters, what will the team be on Saturday? Will we have the "experienced" team with no wins, or the Up & Comers with 2 wins? both of which have been on the road.

Brendon certainly has his work cut out, or has he? With the suspensions, and injuries that seem to be piling up, maybe, just maybe the team sheet is writing it self.

Last year we had a tidy win, 0-3 to our good selves, with the post match Tread title reading Norwich 0:3 Liverpool In game and post match jubilation! Will it be the same, or will our worst start to a League campaign for over 100 years persist?

It must be WIN WIN WIN!

So off you go with your team selections, and score predictions, don't get carried away will you.

Oh last year, someone scored a hat-trick! Suárez 24, Suárez 28, Suárez 82 

My guess:

Reina
Skrtel      Coates
Johnson                        Enrique
Allen
Gerrard    Sahin 
Sterling                          Assaidi
Suarez

Bench: Jones; Carragher, Agger; Henderson, Suso; Pacheco, Yesil

Don't think Agger and Borini should play if they're cleared. No need to rush them back with such a thin squad as is.

Suarez will have to step up to this game. Not been impressed with him this season so far.

Just a win will do me.

Dont care how plays, or who scores- just bloody win!

Suarez will have to step up to this game. Not been impressed with him this season so far.

He's got 3 goals in 6 games mate. 2 in the league, 1 in Europa qualification.

                        Reina

Johnson    Skrtel    Coates    Robinson

                 Allen       Sahin

  Assaidi        Gerrard        Sterling

                     Suarez

Plenty of creativity in that team.
Feed the monster let him score.

MONSTER | Luis Suarez | Liverpool FC

We should win this comfortably

Pepe

Johnson
Coates
Skittles
Robinson

Allen
Gerrard
Sahin

Sterling
Suarez
Suso

Subs

Jones
Carra
Wisdom
Henderson
Yesil
Assaidi
Borini

Agree with the teams above, Sahin, Assaidi and Coates all deserve to come in and start.

Really need to win this one. No more 'tough start' excuses now.

                        Reina

Johnson    Skrtel    Coates    Robinson

                 Allen       Sahin

  Assaidi        Gerrard        Sterling

                     Suarez

This all day long for me. Enrique thinks he has 'made it' now he is at Anfield, reward a very good performance by Robinson by keeping him in. Thought Assaidi was great yesterday, would keep him in too.

                        Reina

Johnson    Skrtel    Coates    Robinson

                 Allen       Sahin

  Assaidi        Gerrard        Sterling

                     Suarez

This is the team I would go for..!

I will give my endorsement to Racer's team as well, should be more than enough to get us the 3 points we NEED from this match. Another hat trick and a goal from the halfway line will do again Luis, gracias amigo

Yeah racer's team looks strong, would bring on Suso and probably Yesil towards the end.

                        Reina

Johnson    Skrtel    Coates    Robinson

                 Allen       Sahin

  Assaidi        Gerrard        Sterling

                     Suarez

That'll do for me too.

I'm going for a 2-0 away win and 3 much needed points to get our season going.

Coates was huge last night, deserves to be in for Agger

Can't wait for this 

I guess the 'big guns' will be back, although I think Henderson, Assaidi and Suso should all play some part after impressing against WBA.

I've read the injury update on the website, is it worth risking Agger and Borini when others are ready to step up? Personally I'd rest them both.

I'd like to see this side:

Reina

Johnson
Skrtel
Coates
Enrique

Gerrard (c)
Allen
Sahin

Sterling
Suarez
Assaidi

Subs; Jones; Wisdom, Carragher; Henderson, Suso; Pacheco, Yesil.

Coates impressed me last night and he is also a big threat in the air. I'm not sure if Enrique is fit enough to come back in yet, if not I would put Robinson in the side.

I'd keep Gerrard and Allen together in the middle and stick Sahin in with them. I feel if we play both Allen and Hendo we are a bit to defensive. Sahin can make something happen, just like he did last night.

Sterling and Suarez look like they are forming a good partnership up front and I think Rodgers in a bit unsure who will play with them. Personally I'd go for Assaidi on Saturday. If his fitness is ok. If not I'd put Pacheco on the left side and give Assaidi a run out at the end.

I'd also bring Suso and Hendo at some point.

It will be a though game but one we can win, I'm going for a 0-2 win to add to our result last night.

Suarez and Gerrard scoring the goals!

YNWA!!

Don't agree with racer's formation.

I'd push Sahin up next to Gerrard and play our usual 4-3-3.

Sahin isn't a holding mid, he certainly shouldn't be deployed as one.

So the players but not the formation.
Thought Sahin played the role well last night.
Himself and Henderson played deeper than Pacheco.
If we're talking of midfield 3, be it 1-2 or 2-1, I'd take
Henderson and Pacheco out and bring Allen and Gerrard in.

I am really confident about getting a win in this game!!!  I think the midweek win paired with the positive showing last week against the scum will have the team playing confidently.  I'd like to see Agger rested so that he can get 100% fit... we don't need him to have another injury plagued season!!  I think Coates, Sahin, Assaidi, and Suso all played very well yesterday, and I think all of them deserve the opportunity to play from the start on Satruday.  I also like the idea of using Sterling as a super sub as his turn of pace will be most effective when placed against tiring defenders.  Also, having Borini on the bench in case we need another striker to be brought on seems like a good idea. 

                  Pepe
Johno  Skrtel  Coates  Enrique
           Allen     Sahin
   Suso    Gerrard   Assaidi
                Suarez

I'm calling a 3-0 win for us!!  First big win of the season, and the first clean sheet of the league campaign!! 

I'd like to see:

                       Reina

Johnson   Skrtle    Coates      Robinson

                 Allen     Sahin

          Suso    Gerrard   Assaidi

                     Suarez

i would rather go for

Reina

Wisdom
Coates
Skrtel
Johnson

Allen
Gerrard
Sahin

Sterling
Suso cos Assaidi played full 90 mins on Wed
Suarez

Subs: Jones, Downing, Henderson, Assaidi, Yesil, Carragher, Pacheco

Predict a 4-0 nil win for the Redmen

Should get our first win of the season here if we play anything like we can and the referee gives us a fair rub of the green. I would like to think we could knock in 3 or 4 goals, but I think it could be another frustrating game were we dominate but struggle to convert the numerous chances we create, so I am only predicting a 1-0 win but hoping for more.

                                Reina
Johnson            Skrtel         Carra        Robinson


                 Gerrard     Allen     Sahin

         Sterling        Suarez           Assaidi

1-0 Gerrard

Liverpool win 1-0.


                                Reina

Johnson         Skrtel          Coates         Enrique

                 Gerrard     Allen     Sahin

         Sterling        Suarez           Assaidi


In a must-win game I doubt he'll put too much youth in it. I'd expect to see more experience.

My guess:

Reina
Skrtel      Coates
Johnson                        Enrique
Allen
Gerrard    Sahin 
Sterling                          Assaidi
Suarez

That team kind of picks itself, doesn't it?
