      This is Balotelli's chance to prove himself.... I hope he takes it!!

      Think he's actually shown a lot more to offer than Lovren!

      I feel the future captain will be facing a big test tonight, and think he may come under some serious stick if things don't go our way.

      Fortunately, I reckon we'll do the business, we surely have enough firepower to knock in at least one, leaving them a stern test. If they have to chase three goals to qualify then our pace up front could rip them to pieces.

      It's a good thing we're playing on Ataturk, because they are building a new stadium, the supporters aren't so close to the pitch, it won't be the same pressure coming from their fans.

      Future captain will shine through tonight continuing his renaissance. Mind you, never mind a pass if he has a hair out of place the hound-dogs off the forum will be on his case. Time for lots of gel and composure.

      Totally agree.
      Lovren HAS to play well tonight.

      Didn't expect that line-up. Looks like Brendan's going for it then and hopefully looking for a couple of early goals.

      I am setting a challenge for our forum users. Do your absolute best to not be massive bellends and only criticize a player when he genuinely does something sh*te, as opposed to when they miss one pass or get turned once.

      I've gone for a sneaky 1-0 for us tonight but looking at that line up I think there's going to be more than 1 goal !

      The question for me is whether Lovren lines up on the right or left of Skrtel.
      It seems obvious that BR has been working with him to get him playing on his "right" side, being a right footer, and with that in mind, if BR is indeed doing that, he should play on the right with Toure on the left.

      I'm expecting one mistake from Lovren, like missing a man stood behind him, and one of Toures usual comedy moments, but still confident we'll go through.

      I expect to see Can produce some of his battering ram runs, and hopefully Ibe will continue to impress.

      Sturridge and Balotelli will not be spending all their time in the middle, and will look to drag defenders wide and create space in the centre for Sterling.

      Lots of pace in the team, and if they come at us hard, we should be able to open them up on the counter and take control of the game from there.

      People (rightly) saying this is a big chance for Mario tonight but let's not forget this is also a big chance for Brendan tonight. So far our European adventures have not gone so well since he took over. Just like the players, he needs to up his own game tonight as well.

      Wouldn't have started Lovren, thought he had a mare at the weekend, looked a nervous wreck and seeing him in the line up tonight doesn't fill me with confidence about him but hopefully he will prove me wrong.

      Good to see Ibe starting again though and looking forward to seeing how him, Sterling, Balo and Sturridge all combine.

      COME ON REDS!!!

      Also, what is with the early kick off?! Would have missed the game had I not double checked.

      Good chance for Lovren to prove his critics wrong tonight.

      So he would prove his critics wrong in one single night?

      The fact that he was utter rubbish for three months, game in and game out, would just.... disappear, and all those critics would be wrong, if he just has one good game?

      Okay then.
