If Harry scores and we win that's not a bad thing right?
Obviously he has been a frustrating player but the guy hasn't lost it just yet.

He lost it a long time ago.  Kewell is a huge waste of space

Oh ye of little faith! He will be fit and playing well by the time the final comes. Probably last the first twenty mins in the final too.   He is still one of the most creative passers at Liverpool, just needs a little more time to get fit. I must admit the first shadows of doubt have entered my thoughts now though.

Torres has a bug and wont be playing.

I expect Crouch to start. I'd like to pair him up with Torres but my feeling is he'll play him with either Kuyt or Babel.

Usually when Crouch plays Benitez tends to start Pennant also.

I'd like to see -

                          Reina

Arbeloa      Carragher      Skrtel      Aurelio

Pennant      Alonso      Gerrard      Kewell

                 Crouch      Babel

Subs:
Kuyt
Benayoun
Mascherano
Agger
Itanje

Yepp totally agree, I don't suppose this match is being shown on TV is it??

[Foximus]

Is torres really not playing???, i havent heard anything...if that is the case obviously Crouch has to start and i wouldnt mind seeing Kewell(yes kewell and yes he is past it) in the mix somewhere.

Reina

Arbeloa      Carragher      Skrtel      Aurelio

Benayoun     Alonso    Gerrard      Babel

                Crouch      Torres

Don't see the point in going back to 4-4-2 for this game, after the results we've just had we're better keeping the same system and hopefully get another great performance from Babel, Kuyt seems more of a threat in this system and we get more from him coming in from the wider areas.

As for Torres he's gonna cause havoc with any defence whatever the System and Gerrards getting into more dangerous positions with the two ball winners behind him, this is only my preference and second guessing Rafa's startin line up is never easy.

Start with this if it doesn't work switch it to 4-4-2.

                     Reina

Carra       Skrtel     Hyypia     Aurelio

              Masch   Alonso/Lucas

                   Gerrard

Kuyt                                   Babel

                   Torres

Fernando Torres hit by bug
Mar 5 2008 EXCLUSIVE by Tony Barrett, Liverpool Echo

FERNANDO TORRES is a major doubt for Liverpool's meeting with West Ham at Anfield tonight, having picked up a bug.

The Reds' top scorer was absent from training yesterday and unless he makes a dramatic recovery is unlikely to be involved against the Hammers.

If, as expected, Torres is unavailable, manager Rafa Benitez is likely to offer a first team recall to Peter Crouch, who has had to settle for a place on the bench in recent weeks.

Should Liverpool win tonight they will go above Everton into fourth place in the Premier League and Benitez today called on his players to take advantage of their game in hand on their Merseyside rivals.

He said: "We have been waiting a long time to play this game and now it is here we must take advantage of it.

"We need to take the confidence from Sunday's win against Bolton into tonight's game.

"But we also have to be careful because West Ham are a good team with good players and we know it will be difficult against them."

Benitez is still smarting from a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Alan Curbishley's side just over a month ago.

On that occasion, Liverpool lost despite having dominated long spells of the game when Mark Noble slotted home an injury time penalty.

"I was disappointed that night," admitted the Reds boss. "We dominated most of the second half and had chances but could not score.

"But that is in the past and tonight we must be positive because we are playing well and creating chances."

Meanwhile, Daniel Agger came through his second reserve team appearance in less than a week unscathed.

The Danish defender played an hour of last night's 1-0 win over Bolton and suffered no ill effects.

Having stepped up his rehabilitation from a metatarsal injury, Agger will now be looking to win his place back in the team.
