A bit of a long shot but does anyone have a ticket they would be prepared to let go of or no longer need?

it would cost you £2000

[antz]

I'll watch it on TV for that price

Anyone else fancy Babel down the left if we go 4 5 1? He has proven he can be dangerous against Arsenal before and his pace down the flank could either be used to help keep their fullbacks honest, or break them down on the counter. Gallas showed everyone in the prem against Villa that he couldn't handle a player like Agbonlahor, maybe Babel can do an Agbonlahor impression on Sunday.

Babel will get his chance.....at the 65th minute mark.

anyone thinking 4-5-1 is negative or defensive is just plain ignorant... we have won many games with 4-5-1 under benitez... the key is the attacking play of the wingers... and yes I agree with Joe, maybe babel will be more dangerous playing as winger in this 4-5-1 as he is more direct and he is also more used to playing a similar system as a foward in a 4-3-3. Perhaps we should line up like this:


                         Keane

Riera           Gerrard                 Babel/Kuyt

           Mascherano      Alonso

Aurelio                                     Arbeloa
                Agger       Carragher

                         Reina


now how does that lineup look defensive or negative?

Yer I'd say thats our strongest side we could put out.
Is Aurelio back?

[DanAn]

Aparantely Aurelio was touch and go for last week so hopefully he is right for this game. I agree that Agger should come in for Hyppia as I think his extra agility and counter attacking is more valuable than what Hyppia offers in the air.

I can see what your saying with Babel but still I suspect Riera & Kuyt will start. I actually like Babel on the left wing because I know Reira will tire and I'd like to see him come on fresh against tired bodies. His ability on the ball could win us the game.

I think Rafa will probably start:
-              Kuyt               -
Riera     Gerrard    Benayoun
-        Alsono      Mash      -
Aurelio  Agger  Cara  Arbeloa
-             Riera                -

Babel on at 65' for Rieara
Keane on at 70' for Benayoun (Kuyt to RM)
Lucas on at 85' for Mash or Alonso

When did we clone Riera? 

[LegBarnes]

OMG 1 day away from one of the best ties of the season in my books.

To beat arsenal is always great to lose hurts like hell !!!! 

[maypaxvobiscum]

... we like Riera so much we cloned him as our new keeper... 

[Petar]

I think we will not lose this one. I think that we have too strong defence and midfield for arsenal kids. 1-1-just because of negative tactics once again

[maypaxvobiscum]

oh come on! why is the match on a sunday? lets do it now!

Some say that he once wrestled an elephant to the ground using the power of his mind and his alarming hairstyle. And that he once had full sex with Boris Johnson's answering machine......all we know is....he's called Riera
