Europa League - Team news: Aquilani doubtful

 

http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/17032010/58/europa-league-team-news-aquilani-doubtful.html

 

I wonder what Rafa put in his Lucozade bottle!!

[Gunga Din]

is Pacheco about this week? if he is, i'd stick him in instead of the Italian if he doesnt recover

[Jarg Armani]

I wouldn't start Pacheco in this one.

[Gunga Din]

I wouldn't start Pacheco in this one.

 

 

i'd rather Pacheco start than going tback to the 2 holding midfielders situation

he having played a match today, and scored, i doubt he'll be up for it

as i said about 3 posts up, if he was about and available i'd play him

 

actually, in saying that, Yossi could come in and replace Alberto

yeah id give it to Yossi as well. He has been crap as of late, but I think this could be a good game for him.

[Falconhoof]

Are we talking about Yossi playing in the centre of midfield, behind Gerrard ? Has Rafa ever played him there ?

I would play him there because you'd hope we'll be pressing Lille right back and going for goals. Yossi has played there for West Ham, and Israel but Rafa has his habits and I can't see him dropping Yossi in there. I think he'll play Lucas and Mascherano again if Aqualini isn't fit.

Isn't it about time we bought Riera back? All hands to the pump n'all that.

Judging by Rafa's pre match comments i'm expecting Lucas and Kuyt back in the side and maybe Yossi for Babel

Of course, why keep a good thing going?

 

If Aquiliani is unfit , I can see Lucas playing, but Kuyt?

[MFletcher]

Maxi is ineligible, so someone will have to come in. Benayoun preferably, although he's been pretty poor in recent weeks as well.

If Aquilani's out, then I'd put Gerrard in centre mid alongside Masch, effectively playing what is now known as 'the Aquilani role'. Torres could then be partnered up front by Benayoun, or, dare I say it, Dirk Kuyt.

[fred milne]

Torres could then be partnered up front by Benayoun.

I don't think he's ever played Yossi in that role. Even against Portsmouth he preferred to move Maxi up front than use Yossi there.

[Hodgson for Chelsea]

I think we'll smash them, really confident about this one.

man utd this season? definitely remember him more central in the second half at least.

[Leo No.8]

Feel really up for this. Its not the Champions League but we're behind in Europe, we're at Anfield and this is our last chance of a trophy (and a good one). We need to raise the roof, get everyone up for it. If the fans make it a big European night and inspire the players then we will go through, we're almost invincible in that situation and have proven it against much better sides than these.

 

If there's apathy from the supporters or expectation we'll win and go through then Lille have a chance. I'm gettng to the ground early, hopefully there will be some atmosphere building. I honestly believe its partly down to us tonight - lets have a f*cking great night roar them on, stuff these and show Europe we're back.

Lets f***ing smash these. Get through this and you suddenly look close to the final. And there might be an extra bonus with Valencia possibly going out.

 

It'll be a good atmosphere and they're bringing 2.5k apparently aswell.

[richwilks]

We're 7/1 with some bookies to win the whole thing. That's pretty good odds.

Hang on till we go 0-1 down this evening.
