Down Memory Lane

 

Double Agents

 

Meet the Referee

[Bo Benn]

Considering the circumstances I'd settle for a scrappy 0-4 win.

[mathewbet1]

...............Reina.................

Arbeloa Carra Agger Aurelio

Kuyt Xabi Masch Albert

...............Gerro................

...............Keane...............

 

Backing a 0-0 or 1-0 to us.

...............Keane...............

LB is the only question mark for me - the rest of the team picks itself if Torres is out. My guess is Rafa will give Dossena the nod.

[Montse]

Dont forget the clocks go back!

[Rory Fitzgerald]

Damn, an extra hour to the game !

[Ben 23]

I agree with the above team. Gerrard better f***ing turn up though, not with that s**** we saw at Athletico.

 

Any chance of Torres on the bench?

[Bigal]

Excellent, thanks for pointing that out!

Yeah, putting Keane through for his goal and then sticking another on a plate for him and being involved in the disallowed goal for Benayoun (that was onside) - he better not treat us to that again !

Its a shame that torres isn't fit on sunday because Keane needs to be dropped for trying to be fancy with the finish there

But think of the glory we would all have been basking in had he scored that.

Who, the Irish?

[Ronnie Whelan]

Who, the Irish?

 

 

Liverpool fans of course. It would have been a superb goal. The build play was excellent, the ball from SG was excellent and Keane then made a b******s of it, but had he scored we would still be talking about it.

 

Im not defending him by the way, he should have finished it.

 

Im sure it has been mentioned here before but I once heard keane described as 'A scorer of great goals, not a great scorer of goals'.

I think that was strachan's description of Huckerby, who Keane replaced at coventry

Thats that then becuase it could never be used by another once Gordon Strachan has said it.

agreed

[McBain]

Keane didn't train today. Assuming he's only good for the bench i think we should go

 

-----------------Reina

 

Arbeloa - Carra -- Agger -- Aurelio

 

Babel --- Xabi --- Masch --- Riera

 

---------------Gerrard

 

-----------------Kuyt

[Hassony]

How come Aurellio is coming back in the team after he had such a nightmare in his last outing?

 

Pepe

Arbeloa Carra Agger Dossena

Kuyt Gerrard Xabi Masch Reira

Babel

[MFletcher]

If Keane is out injured, I'd go with Kuyt on the right and Babel up top.

 

Keane for Babel if he is fit.

[Hassony]

thats what i went for

 

Kuyt as a lone striker shouldn't really be considered as an option after the Athens and Blackburn away last season

Proven ability being more important than one bad performance.

Hardly proven, he had few decent performances, I just think he is an average player over all

[Earl Hafler]

You have noticed a slight difference since last season though ?

[CaptainXabi]

Yes, he hasn't played as a lone striker yet

[Clay Davis]

I really rate him. So frustrating he can't stay fit.

 

... but then again I really like players who can actually pass the ball. Thats why seeing him there instead of Riise is such a relief.
