      Stoke 3-5 Liverpool: In game and Post Match Delightful Relief
      Jan 12, 2014 03:09:27 pm


      XI: Mignolet, Johnson, Cissokho, Skrtel, Toure, Lucas, Gerrard, Henderson, Sterling, Coutinho, Suarez.

      Subs: Ward, Kelly, Ibe, Aspas, Moses, Sturridge, Alberto.

      Kolo Toure starts in central defence for Liverpool at Stoke City on Sunday, in the absence of vice-captain Daniel Agger, while striker Daniel Sturridge has been named among the substitutes.

      Brendan Rodgers has made two changes to the Reds line-up which was last in action in the Barclays Premier League, at home to Hull City on January 1.

      Ivorian defender Toure partners Martin Skrtel at the heart of the backline, while skipper Steven Gerrard replaces Iago Aspas and racks up a 650th appearance for the club in the process.

      Having returned from an ankle problem, Sturridge is selected on the bench at the Britannia Stadium, and Academy goalkeeper Danny Ward is included as back-up for Simon Mignolet.

      Come on Lads.

      Stoke have very little pace in that team, if we press at them and have a high line, I think we can dominate this game.

      We have a monkey on our back with our terrible record here in the league but I think we'll win this if we play at our best.

      Sturridge on the bench too.

      Is right Ibe on the bench! Ibe to come on second half and score a winner and slide on his knees infront of Mark Hughesy.

      I hope Suarez hammers Stoke . They have been brutal to him in the past . Huth and company deserved Reds every time.

      Does make you wonder what Brendan is talking about regarding our lack of options when it comes to transfers and players available when you look at our available matchday squad.

      I like that Ibe is getting a chance, I think he could make an impact should he be needed and the pressure on this game for the lads is a big burden that an early goal would shed. I think we may come away with a draw here with Stoke more playing to frustrate than create but Luis is always likely to grab a goal or 4 so you never know.

      When you look at that:

      Subs: Ward, Kelly, Ibe, Aspas, Moses, Sturridge, Alberto.

      for a bench though, it really does pull the wool a little to suggest you're "happy" with what you've got to push forward.

      Last season, we just didn't show up against them, away from home (2 weeks earlier time-wise) in similar weather conditions. They pressed us really well, the crowd got behind them & we bottled it.

      Hopefully we actually show up today. 1-0 win for us, hopefully.

      Attack looks good, defence looks a bit shaky. Glad to have the skipper back and hopefully Hendo keeps his form up.

      Come on lads. Sink this shower of sh*te.

      I know I say it every week but it's true. This is a massive game. Not least because of the way the league table is shaping up, but also in terms of out development. Think I am right in saying we haven't won at the Britannia in the league. They are always one of those teams we struggle against but now is time to put that right. Luis always seems to have some good games against them. His debut and then also his hat-trick in the cup. With Gerrard back and Danny on the bench, we are getting the normal squad together again. One thing that worries me, our shaky defence.

      Come on Redmen!

      Not thrilled having to play Skrtel and Toure together, but apart from that I think we should be more than strong enough to beat Stoke.... not sure we will get a clean sheet to go with the win though.

      Allen sakho Agger and enrique recovering would improve the bench immensely. But we have to strengthen that midfield though during this window

      This is stupid I know, and just trivial but I thought teams had to wear different coloured shorts/socks. To aid colour blind players?
