Dunny stop give the man false hope. I have already given my thorough analysis of the Loserfool team. Follow my plan then they can separate themselves from teams like Newcastle and Everton and challenge for a 4th place.

Where is your anal-ysis? Send me dat deh link...I need a good laugh. Serious. Send it to me.

by top teams, do you include arsenal?

Do you?

[Paul Marin]

Keep the faith, they are not far away, a few tweaks here and there and they should be knocking on the door to get into the top 4. Gerrard is still got a lot to give, keep him fit and play him as the attacking midfielder with 2 holding midfielders behind him and they will do some damage!!

That's the plan!!!

Dunny, thanks for acknowledging the harsh reality of our bad "luck". But I would be a hypocrite if I were to chalk it up to that, having argued many times in the past that "luck" is over-rated and "execution" is far more important a factor in football than "luck". The players have to did deeper and move on. The game against Stoke on Sunday will be an important game to win to put their psyche where it needs to be. A League Cup and FA Cup double would be more than enough vindication for KK and his methods.

Anyway, I have no problem with your line up except that it won't work against top teams - it is thread-bare defensively. Adam, Gerrard, Bellamy, Kuyt and Henderson in your midfield is dangerous. You would need someone like Spearing in there as a defensive foil. My suggestion for a starting 11 from the current squad of fit players would be:

--------------------- Reina
Kelly---------Skrtel-------Agger---------Enrique
-----------------------Spearing
--------Henderson----------------Adam
----------------------Gerrard
----------------Kuyt----------Suarez

Bellamy, Downing, Maxi and Carroll can all be used as 60' subs for Adam, Henderson, Gerrard and Kuyt. Defensively, we have Flanagan, Coates, Carragher and Aurelio as needed and of course, when Johnson comes back, he starts. Note that Bellamy can't play 90 minutes, his knees can't hold up. Also, this formation requires Enrique and Kelly to do a TON of work but we have a proven front 3 that can work together.

I don't think KK can give up on Carroll in the way you suggest quite yet. The player is young - were he 28 it might be different. I only have to go back to Lucas and his performances prior to last year as an example that everyone - me especially - said "had to go". At 25, he is a staple in the Brazil team and should be there in the WC if his form continues.

To be fair Liverpool have been unlucky in quite a few games this season where they've dominated games at home and end up drawing them and also the fact Gerrard has not featured much but they are not far away as they've shown in the games against the big teams. The problem is Kenny just need to stop trying to justify buying Carroll, he just need to hold his hands up and say he made a mistake and move on, either sell him or send him out on loan.Suarez plays better as a lone striker anyway. He should play 4-3-3 with Kuyt on the right Bellamy on the left and Suarez in the middle with Gerrard,Adams and Henderson in midfield and the back four of Johnson, Agger ,Skirtel and Enrique that is the team that will give you success. Downing and Carroll are not good enough in my book to be starting so many games.
