Aguero's back, Touré's on form, one conceded in three games- there's absolutely no reason why we can't win this one.

Bravo
Sagna
Otamendi
Kolarov
Clichy
Touré
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Silva
Sterling
Aguero

Caballero, Zabaleta, Stones, Fernando, Nolito, Sané, Iheanacho

Personally I'd start Sané- he'd tear Milner to shreds- but I don't see De Bruyne or Silva being dropped.

I'm going with an optimistic 1-2, Aguero and Sterling to score hopefully.
 
Need to win this to stay on Chelsea's trail. Liverpool are nothing special and we will be having Aguero back.
1-3 City.
 
We've continuously said it,we are due a win at anfield,but for a host of reasons it hasn't happened,sometimes it's just one of those things,to be fair compared to previous years I feel less confident about getting a result on Saturday,but sometimes that's when you least expect it and you end up getting the result,although I desperately want us to turn it on big time and hammer the fuckers..
 
I would be happy to take a point from Klanfield, though considering our record there, I doubt we'll get anything.

I'd be tempted to add Nando to the midfield at the expense of Merlin to try to negate their press.

Bravo

Sagna
Otamendi
Kolarov
Clichy

Nando
Dinho
Yaya

KdB
Raz

Kun
 
Hopefully we get out of this one with 3 points, our wallets and our hubcaps.
 
We're due any king of result at anfield it's been awhile for a draw!

Haven't won there since Anelka scored twice. I'm going to say 2-2 but please remember guys whatever happens it's a 90 minute match!

Gonna post this here aswell incase people don't check the ticket forum - looking for a single ticket for this game can meet day of game in Liverpool.
 
Play like we did today for the first 70 minutes and we'll be 3-0 down before we've even woken up
 
After watching us again today, I worry for this match as we looked pedestrian and poor at the back.

My only positive is I thought the same before we played Arsenal. Sergio owes the team , missing 7 games through silly miss judgements.

We have the players but they need to show that they really want it, as Klopp will certainly have Liverpool up for the game.
 
We never win at Anfield. Time for a change now as I don't think we can pull back a 10 point deficit against Chelsea
 
Our record there is abysmal. Start the way we have been the last few games and we'll down inside 10 minutes and their tails will be up. Need to be switched on from the start.
 
Win this and I'll believe we're still in the title race. Can't see our defence coping with them though.
 
Who do we drop? Aguero is back and we need a striker, we need Sane on the left as neither KDB nor Silva are at their best there, Yaya Toure's on form

Big Dilemma, that
 
This is the one fixture above all others that I want us to win this season.
I hate "bogey grounds" and want us to do the business and humble the bastards.

But surely the idea of their press is to make us cough up the ball, which Nando is far more likely to do than Silva. Silva and Toure are our best possession players and least likely to give the ball away, which would contribute most to burning out the Scouse headless chickens by about 60 mins.

Edit: Ha!,you beat me to it @SWP's back, I should have read further before posting!

Add in a player that can't keep possession for one that can, to negate a press? Cool.

Leicester's press negated Silva and we would have been better off with Yaya alongside Fernando for that game. Liverpool will try to start like Leicester did against us.
 
What's the situation re Sane ?

He is ideal to get at them, even as a sub, if he can keep his nerve.

Also, about time Serge pulled his thumb out of his arse. Usually, we need to score a few to win there. Well he is the best around & he's fresh as a daisy & their defenders are at least as bad as ours, probably worse. He would tear ours a new arsehole if he was playing for them & we would be shitting our pants now at the prospect of him coming back.

So do it for us, instead, game over.
