Sportsmans bet that he drops Manquillo and Toure?

Cool. Just saying that's what I think BR will do not what I would do.

I think he will change it as well but I'm not sure what message that sends out.

Everybody knows Toure was excellent so if he gets left out then it's telling the other players that even if they play really well when they get a chance it doesn't mean anything.

I'll be very surprised if Toure doesn't played and certainly frustrated more so if Balotelli plays up front on his own.

I'll take that bet, no way could he drop Toure after that performance...could he?

BR will play a back 3 which he experimented against Newcastle. We will need extra height against tall side like Chelsea and that will allow him to bring Lovren in with Kolo and Skrtel.

Really doubt we will play a back three. We didn't set up with a back three at Newcastle either it was just Moreno was asked to play higher up when we were on the ball.

For me, Can, "Der Panzer" is a must. The way he stormed through the Real midfield was a joy to watch. Borini, more than Balo deserves his place. It's a complete new game for here on in if they are selected.

Where do people suppose the playmaking is going to come from without Gerrard?

The team I guess. There is nothing to stop Jordan and Coutinho supplying the ammo or Allen if he remember that he is a footballer. I'm certainly not against Gerrard playing but he does have mares against Chelsea and he's not passed the ball well lately. He'll start though I'm sure.

as long as you don't play mr. slippy you will get a point

Nah Borini on his own would be better than Balotelli.

Balotelli is far too easy to mark, you need players to run the channels and pull the chelsea defence out of place.
Borini and Sterling from deep can do this.

It has to be Lucas in front of the back four. Three in front of him are Henderson, Gerrard and Can.
Then sterling just playing off Balotelli.

That would be solid and allows Coutinho, Balotelli and Lallana to come on if required.
