V

Reina, Flanagan, Aurelio, Skrtel, Carragher, Spearing, Leiva, Kuyt, Cole, Meireles, Suarez.

Bench: Gulacsi, Robinson, Wisdom, Wilson, Poulsen, Ngog, Shelvey.

C'mon the reds!

So Joe Cole gets the nod ahead of Shelvey. Interesting, could be his send off.

Expect to see a few of the young lads get a run out too, probably be Shelvey + Ngog at least.

Hope to finish strong with a victory

Can only assume Johnson and Carroll are injured. Good to see Andre on the bench.

Cole starts?!?! Wow.

Wonder what's up with Maxi/Johnson/Carroll? At least a couple of them could have made the bench?

Anyway, hope we end on a win and hope Spurs F**k up too.

Good bye , Joe Cole.

Goodbyes for Aurelio and Cole eh!

Come on you mighty reds!!!

3 pages for the Pre-match thread! How many will this thread make by Full Time?

Coles swan song? Maybe.

Nice win for Liverpool is all I ask for, and I am sure it would be a nice tonic for Gerard Houllier too.

Huge surprise that Joe Cole is starting. 

Huge surprise that Joe Cole is starting. 

Last chance to shine?

Come on Reds...do the business today.

Hoping for an early goal today, cause we had last minute winners with our last 2 outings there.

I'll be happy with a 2-0 win, Suarez and Kuyt to score.

What's up with Carroll guys, anyone?

Not so sure about Aurelio getting a start (most likely only be on for 5-10 minutes anyway) but Suarez, Kuyt and Cole, as a front three, works for me.

Us - Three or Four to one.

Can see a good result here! Ye Bent is bang in form, but Skrtel didnt miss a minute all season which says he is also BANG in form.

Congrats Martin!

Not so sure about Aurelio getting a start (most likely only be on for 5-10 minutes anyway)

Haha was thinking that when I seen his name in the line up.

I'll give him until the 23rd minute.

Could be very open game today and i hope we finish of the villans with style and pass & move footy.

Going for a 3-1 win to us.

Hopefully Cole can have a decent game and grab some potential buyer's attention.

No Maxi or Johnson?  Are they injured?  Hope Cole can do something good today.  Good to see Raul back and Wisdom on the bench.

C'MON YOU REDS 

Big chance for Cole to do something here (first time for everything). Shame really, as I had expected more from him than what we have got so far.

Glad to see Meireles back and let's hope Suarez gets two or three today as the lad deserves it.

Think I'll go for a 3-1 win to us today. Two for Suarez and one for Kuyt.

Chance for Cole to prove his point. Good luck to him. Come on Reds!

Its not surprised that Carroll, Maxi and Johnson aren't starting but I'm surprised that they aren't even on the bench. They could be injured.

I hope Cole task his chance here. Its his last chance for sure.

Still going for a 1-0 win.

I've gone for 1-0 to us, Suarez !
Just hope the Yids slip up and hand us 5th spot.

Haha was thinking that when I seen his name in the line up.

I'll give him until the 23rd minute.

I'll say 40 minutes. What's the prize?

Anyway, a few surprises in that starting 11 but are still more than capable of getting the 3 points.

Let's just get those 3 points, finish off the season in style and then we'll see whether we qualify for Europa or not.

Come on Reds!!

Good that carroll is on the bench.We should give more priority to following our effective pass and move system than increase his confidence or justify the price tag. I hope in the summer, he  works on adapting to our game plan.
