      Bit harsh. He actually performed ok last season. But I agree he's not good enough to start and too expensive to sit on the bench. Will most likely be sold if we get a decent offer.

      Opening day (barring injuries):

      Reina

      Johnson
      Skrtel
      Agger
      Enrique

      Lucas
      Gerrard

      Aspas
      Mkhitaryan
      Coutinho

      Sturridge


      This would be the business! However I think Toure will start alongside Agger with Mignolet in goal.

      Been listening to the latest TAW and they raise an interesting point. If we do sign Micky, who drops out of the midfield? Not sure who made the point but one of the contributors suggested managing Gerrard a lot more this season, dropping him from time to time to ensure his legs keep up. I go along with that idea. Although he is our captain, he played far too often last season and wasn't able to have as great an impact as suggested. Another point raised was one about Lucas. The lad is athletic, strong and a good tackler but as soon as someone turns him, he finds it difficult to catch up. Then comes the question about what sort of role Henderson or Allen will play. Hendo had a great second half of the season last year and I am his biggest supporter.  As for Allen, great start last year but  injury prevented him from progressing. It will certainly be interesting to see how the midfield will line up.

      All hypothetical of course but I would like to see this;

                                                                                                    Reina
                                                                             Johnson      Kelly    Agger  Enrique
                                                                                       Gerrard          Lucas
                                                                              Aspas         Mkhitaryan   Coutinho
                                                                                                  Suarez

                                                                  Bench; Mignolet, Toure, Hendo, Alberto, Sturridge, Borini, Sterling, Ibe

      pretty decent outfit IMO, hope Brendan's reading this,  ;D

      I don't know what's going to happen about Suarez but even if he's not here this season, with the players BR has already brought in, I think our front line looks pretty good. I'm not sure if Mkhitaryan is coming either but I'm sure Coutinho is well good enough in that No10 role.

      I'm sure Gerrard and Lucas would have to take the 2 midfield places with Henderson and Allen snapping at their heals.

      The goalkeeping situation looks interesting, would Reina really be happy with a place on the bench and fighting for his place? I,m sure the same can be said for Mignolet.

      Defence would be another tricky one but I think Toure will start the season. If we get some new CB,s in and if our new keeper starts its going to take someone of Toure,s experience to sort out the communication with the defence and keeper. I think Kelly should get RB and Johnson get LB. Enrique's performances were inconsistent to me and I think Johnson takes a little extra care at LB because he's using his weaker foot. So at this moment in time my starting 11 would be :

                                 Mignolet

      Kelly           Toure             Agger           Johnson

                         Lucas            Gerrard

                                 Coutinho

      Aspas                  Sturridge                 Borini

      Since Brendan said he wanted a fight for every position i'll put down to possible line-ups:
      1st option:
                                                  Mignolet

      Wisdom                     Agger                     Skertl                  New LB

                                                    Lucas

      Aspas                                    Garrard                                Sterling
                                                     
                                                   Coutinho

                                                   Sturidge

      2nd Option:

                                                     Reina

      Kelly                       Toure                     Coates (not likely but I like him)    Enrique

                                                      Allen

      Alberto                                   Henderson                                           Ibe

                                                      Suso

                                                      Borini

      Downing and Glen Johnson are not included since personally I think next year's team should be the basis of a dynasty,
      A team that would run together for years with little twicks and fixes, and I simply can't see them there.
      Suarez isn't there cause he doesn't seem to want to be there...

      Wouldn't mind having this squad next year

      Reina/Mignolet

      Johnson/Kelly Skrtel/Toure Agger/Wisdom Enrique/Moreno

      Gerrard/Henderson Lucas/Allen

      Aspas/Suarez Mkhitaryan/Suso Coutinho/Alberto/Sterling

      Sturridge/Borini

      With every player in the 3 being able to play multiple positions, the interchanging would be immense. Would also be great to have bench depth for the whole year, something severely lacking in the last campaign. Also think that would pass the homegrown rules.
