Sterling for me ahead of Suso.
I still think an inform Allen gets in ahead of an inform Henderson, too.
i would probably agree, i'd like to see suso get a run of games together, Brendan clearly has favourites though in Allen Shelvey and Sterling. All 3 of them are in decline in terms of form and were finally dropped for the Norwich game (atleast his pet Allen was) and Hendo took full advantage.
Interesting to see now if he rewards Hendo with his much improved form whilst Allen and co have declined.
Suso is not a wide player and is wasted there.
Allen, Henderson and Shelvey are hard to seperate.
Well it depends.
All games are 'must wins' in any case regardless.
If we have a FULLY fit squad, our team would be set up differently for a Southampton game at home compared to united away

__________________________
Thats the point after getting regular games and signing a contract over that course Sterling has looked a shadow of the player who first burst onto the scene. Allen started well and was constantly played even cup games after league and he has become somewhat of a liability recently.
Gerrard was the opposite started sluggish and is slowly finding his form but has always started where perhaps Henderson deserved a start over him now and then.
Yes i know that was just thinking of an overall general view and i just think suso deserves his place.
Allen has been poor of late and i think both Shelvey and Henderson are ahead of him at the moment for the last midfield spot (Gerrard and Lucas first names on). I think Henderson should be rested for the Oldham game and the deserves to start both Arsenal and Man City games
Indeed. Possibly for the harder away games, has anybody thought of something like this?
Reina
Johnson Skrtel Carragher Agger Enrique
Gerrard Lucas Henderson
Suarez Sturridge
With Johnson and Enrique pushing forward at every oppurtunity. I'd like to see how that works one day.
Team for oldham game perhaps something like
Jones, Robinson, Skrtel, Carragher, Wisdom, Shelvey, Allen, Lucas, Sterling, Borini, Suso.
Thats what i would have anyway.

I like that team yes i think in the big games for example Arsenal and Man City away coming up that team could do a good job and perhaps grind out a result where it may be a tough game.
Johnson and Enrique both capable of pushing on whilst still having Carra in there for experience and communication
Team for oldham
-----------------Jones
---------Carra-----------?????
Wisdom---------------------------Robinson
--------------Coady---Allen
-------------------Suso
Sterling----------------------Assaidi
-------------------Borini

Oh didn't see anything of that only the questions if he will or not. Guess Downing instead then.
Same as you OP only 4-3-2-1 and Downing for Suso.
Suso will probably get chucked out onto the wing against oldham

--------------------Sturridge-----------------
(____) = One of Allen, Henderson and Shelvey. If Allen, move Gerrard to AM and Allen CM... maybe.
Alternatively you could have Suarez AM with whoever on the wings. From Downing to Henderson, etc. etc.
General comment but it's been a while since most fans had such similar best 11's I'd say.
Personally I think Suso needs to play in AM which probably means more substitute appearances at the moment. I'd start Sterling.
Agree with Henderson atm, deserves his place, but I have confidence that the Allen we saw in the first 6 weeks of the season will reappear at some point.
Only thing I would say is that Suarez in the AM role give our team more structure. With the wingers effectively helping the defence out, something that I'm sure Suarez could do, but I'd rather he didn't and kept a central and high-ish position up the field for counter attacks due to his lack of pace. He wouldn't be able to counter effectively from deep.
