Hull City v Liverpool - Pre-match Thread

Well with Europa League football secured next year and nothing to play for, does anyone else think that we should give the young lads a shift along with some experienced players?

Obviously Hull are relegated and we don't want to make yet another cock up of a game by getting beat, but this could be a good chance to mix in some young talent that we have with first team football.

Your opinions and a line up.....

Don't know really.

We should still try and get 6th - a Villa draw or loss could mean we get there if we win our game.

Would be good to put out a team of youth though. I'm sure they'd give Hull a run for their money.

Let Rafa take time off along with the first team and unleash Rodolfos finest. Eh maybe not but would like to see some promising youngsters given a run. The key word being promising. Unless their are potential buyers in the stand I dont want to see El Zhar or Degen ever put the jersey on again. So realistically Ayala, Pacheco and Ngog would be the extent of it but I wouldnt mind if Ince got a run to show him he has a future here

Put out our best team, atleast then we have a good shot of ending an ordinary season on a high.

                                    Gulacsi

Darby                  Skrtel                Ayala               Insua

                           Lucas             Aquilani             

Ince                               Pacheco                        Ecclestone

                                      NGog

Subs.
Cavalieri
Agger
Johnson
Gerrard
Babel
Yossi
Durk

Think that would spank them, if not three forward substitutions could rescue the day.

skrtel and insua fit? And are darby and eccleston still on loan or not?

Love to see ince get a run hes just getting better and better and forming a good partnership in the under 18s down the left with Robinson

At the risk of being pedantic while your taking the piss. . . Arent Darby and Eccleston only finished their loan spells. . . Oh and. . What no Spearing?

Give Pacheco a run! Nothing is on the line, let's give the lad a chance.

Any team is fine with me as long as Reina is in goals to collect the Pepe Reina trophy, er I mean, golden gloves.  Would love to see Pacheco start or at least play a solid 45 minutes.

I see no harm at all in putting the young ones out. There gone we are only going for 6th. Get Pacheco, Ayala, Amoo out there. Only 1st team reqular id go with and captain for the day Reina

Other then that it could be last game for 1 or 2 people

Reina (c)

Johnson Ayala Agger Insua

Lucas

Maxi Pacheco Aquilani Benayoun

Ngog

Maybe give another young striker a start inhead of Ngog, but lets just hammer Hull 6-0 again for something to be happy about.

QFT

One reason to win is to hopefully get ahead of Villa so we don't have to play a Qualifier in the Europa next season. 7th means we could potentially play CSKA in the 3rd Qualifier of the Competition, not a easy game at all.

Rest every player that will go to the World Cup and play the reserves and fringe players.

Result is irrevelant.

                    Reina

Silva   Carragher   Agger   Robinson

         Mascherano    Aquilani

Maxi             Pacheco           Ince

                   Ngog

Bench: Cavelieri, Wisdom, Sterling, Gerrard, Kuyt, Amoo, Dalla Valle

Never going to happen but this would be interesting.

I worried about not finishing 6th, due to early qualifiers, our players are going to be knacked after the WC so an even shorter pre season will do us no favours. Would like to see a regular spine, with Agger or Cara alongside Ayala for example.

But even with a 50/50 mix i still think we will dick on Hull, or i might actually cry!

My team would be...
                   Reina

Darby   Ayala       Agger   Insua

          Gerrard Aqualani

Maxi            Pacheco    Babel

                    N'Gog

Lets see can we beat a relegated team without a defensive midfielder for once!!!
Surely we fu*kin well can!!!

When is this game?

When is this game?

Me thinks this Saturday

The only player that for me his place is guaranteed is Reina 'cos he needs a clean sheet to take the golden glove.

The game is sunday I believe, all synchronized to start at the same time in order to be fair to the Scum and Chavski ( oh and to make Sky Sports interesting  ) !

Are our youngsters back from their loan spells? Like Darby, Ecclestone, Spearing?

Their season is over anyway.
Championship is finished.
