Well, since there's hardly anyone writing anything, I'll give an update on how much time the players spent on international games these few days:
Martin Kelly: Played 90 minutes on Thursday. Shouldn't have fitness problems for this game.
John Flanagan: 90 minutes on Thursday and about 20 on Monday.
Jordan Henderson: Played 90 minutes on Thursday and 90 on Monday. Don't think we'll start him for this game so it doesn't really matter.
Dirk Kuyt: 90 minutes on Friday and 73 today. But Kuyt's an engine so I don't think this will matter much
Craig Bellamy: 90 minutes on Friday and 90 today.
Stewart Downing: 30 minutes on Friday. He looked a bit tired last time probably because he played alot of games without a rest. He should be fit enough for the mancs.
Luis Suarez: Played a game on Friday, not sure how many minutes, probably the whole game and will probably play today. I'm a bit worried about this, he will surely be tired, I just hope he won't be too much.
Martin Skrtel: Played 90 minutes on Friday, missed today's match because his wife gave birth to his first child. Shouldn't have a fitness problem for this game. Anyway, congratulations for his son.
Charlie Adam: Played 76 minutes on Saturday and 64 today.
Lucas Leiva: Probably played on the friendly on Saturday and will probably on the friendly today. He usually doesn't have fitness problems and is always ready so it should be no different for Saturday.
*Coates and Rodriguez also might have played a game or two.
I think that's all of them
