Crunch time for us, anything other than a win and we're out. I do expect a win tonight, but going by recent form, I can't see us making the knock-out stages. As for team news, Agger and Alonso are still out whilst Torres is expected to be fit.

Reina
Finnan Carragher Arbeloa Aurelio
Benayoun Gerrard Mascherano Kewell
Crouch Babel

Would love to see Rafa play the above team tonight, but we all know it's not going to happen. No doubt Hyypia and Riise will be in the back 4 and Kuyt and Voronin are upfront. Happy days.

obvious crunch time for liverpool but to be honest the only british club i can see struggling this week is Celtic, i think Benfica could be a tricky tie for them.
 
I will be livid if we don't go out and attack Besiktas tonight. If we play to win but lose so be it. If we play like we have done and only look to score the one before sitting back on our lead we deserve to lose and go out.

It would be nice to see Crouch start but Kuyt will obviously play ahead of him.

I'm hoping for a comfortable 3-0 victory but I would take 1-0.
 
I think we will win this i hope he plays babel up front i think we will go to the next round we only need 3wins. If we lose tonight then it is game over

Ahmed. You know nothing. :cool:

EDIT: I think a few of the youth players will feature against Prague for arsenal. Give them valuable European experience.

Firstly, the Man Utd game is televised (although thanks for almost giving me a heart attack!).

I expect a weaker line up tomorrow night. That's normally what Fergie does when the place in the knockout stages is pretty much confirmed. I'd be surprised if the team from the Arsenal game lines up.
 
Fergie will play a strong team tomorrow. He'll have learnt his lesson from last season. Might see a few players rested but nothing major. The last two games can be used to give others a chance after we win tomorrow.
 
Not a word I would associate Hyypia with :D

I'm half expecting him to be rested tonight. He badly needs a rest so maybe Arbeloa or Hobbs to step in?

I wouldn't mind seeing Arbeloa go lb and Riise cb, we're not going to have much defending to do, he's filled in there before on occasions and it will be nice to have somebody to bring the ball out from the back.
