Berbatov

We couldn't/wouldn't afford his wages anyway.

we could afford the wages, we just wouldn't justify it ie top wages (i presume?) and no Cl football.

we need CL football to really test the owners ambitions for us ie all talk and no action, well for me that's how i see it any way.

Do you think Borini will play as main striker against City? With Suarez being shifted to inside forward?

I hope Downing does not play, I'd rather see Sterling (bit early probably) or Carroll instead, Carroll in the centre with Borini + Suarez wide...

Berbatov is a great player but he is completely unrealistic as Fergie would never sell to us.

I'm hoping Carroll plays as the main striker with Suarez and Downing either side of him. I'd also like to see Sterling or the new winger on the bench in place of one of the three central midfielders who started the last game on the bench.

I should imagine Carroll's confidence is pretty low,almost shot to bits since Brendon wanted him out and to West Ham of all teams.If he gets some game time is he going to go through the motions like he did for all but the last few games last season

For the City game i want

Suarez Borini Downing/Assaidi(depending on how he plays against hearts)

Brendan didn't want him out to West Ham, since Liverpool rejected West Ham's offer, I would say that would confirm that.

I don't think he needs to go through any motions, he needs to play and the system needs him, so the players around him can join the attack. all throughout pre-season this was very evident. Our passing up until the final third was excellent but nobody was able to hold the ball up in the final third for other players to join the attack and it just didn't work. The attacking element of the system has failed in nearly every match I've watched so far under Rodgers.

I reckon you are wrong and we need Dempsey ASAP.
