Masch will surely sit this one out again, as he was still in Argentina as of Saturday at least.

 

Edit: Just read he came back yesterday. I'd still rest him if he's actually injured or at least feeling tired from the trip back from Argentina.

Resting key players is not an option, last years champions league group was a nice relaxing stroll as we got 2 good wins early doors, I wouldn't fancy drawing this one and then having to go to Fiorentina next time out needing a result- we don't want to be in a situation like 2007-08, players can rest from the final group games if and when the job is done. Torres, Gerrard, Johnson etc can miss the Leeds Carling Cup game and have a weeks rest before Hull

 

Reina

Johnson Carra Skrtel Insua

Gerrard Lucas

Kuyt Benayoun Babel

Torres

 

if we're 3-0 up early in the 2nd half then changes can be made

Same team as Saturday, finish the game quickly and make changes.

 

 

Maybe giving Dossena or Aurelio a run out at left back and resting Insua and even giving Carra an early season rest, bringing in the hairy greek.

As a regular gambler on obscure European leagues I can safely say these are dreadful, really s****. I wouldnt mind Gerrard and Torres left out for this but doubt it'll happen. Us, Lyon and Fiorentina will take 6 points off them.

 

We've still got to work hard and go after them whoever starts mind, slack off when we're 2 up.

I saw them lose 3-1 to Kalmar in the qualifiers, and they were quite incredibly s**** then.

 

 

biggest game of their lives, playing at Anfield, they will raise their game no doubt but we should still be thinking of declaring at about 5 or 6...

Rafa gave an interview the other day saying how important it is to win the first game and take control of the group and how difficult things were made when we lost to Marseille 2 seasons back. He'll stick out a good team and look to get the game done.

As s*** as these are. Teams have the annoying trait of raising their game at Anfield ten fold. So obviously a strong team is needed. People suggesting resting players is mental. We're only a few weeks into the season! only the Spanish lads and Dossena had a busy summer. Rest players if we're 3/4-0 up and if we've already qualified by the last two games.

I don't think resting Riera (I'd be stunned if he played), Yossi and Insua is crazy talk or complacent. Start Tog, Dirk, Geg and Glen Jono and then sub three of the four in an ideal world.
