Funny how everyone seems to prefer Warnock to Traore at left back, when Traore is probably playing as well as ever.

I'd play:

----------Dude----------
Finnan Carra Hyppia Warnock/Traore
--Nunez Xabi Gerrard Riise
----Morientes Baros----

Cisse, Biscan, Carson Warnock/Traore, Garcia looks like the best bench for ages.

I'd controversially rest Luis Garcia because I think he's wasted on the wing and would be better being kept for a 4-4-1-1 in the CL. His best performances have been between midfield and attack. I reckon we need an orthodox 4-4-2 for Pompey because a draw is no good, we need to keep the game open.

I wouldn't rest players who are currently playing well, particularly with so few games left. I'd stick with Garcia, he's played quite well recently.

My Team:

Dudek

Finnan Carragher Hyppia Warnock

Alonso

Garcia Gerrard Riise

Baros Nando

Sorry but that is insane.

dudek
finnan
carra
hyypia
warnock (if fit, or Traore)
garcia
gerrard
alonso
riise
moro
baros

Cisse I don't think will be very effective so early back into his return, he should come off the bench for a decent while though.

I agree in general terms that I wouldn't rest players who are playing well. However, Garcia isn't playing particularly well on the right and I don't think we should play 4-4-1-1 in a game we need to win. We've already been far too defensive away from home this season. Gerrard has hardly crossed the half-way line away from Anfield. So I'd put the shape of the team before individuals.

the fact that bolton only drew last night is an absolute lifeline for us. we have to win tonight otherwise everton's result is completely irrelevant. if we win and everton lose we will go fourth even though everton have a game in hand. mind you, that game in hand is against arsenal at highbury.

I like how you have Carson both of starting 11 and the bench and how Baros is ommitted in the 16 man squad. The lineup will most likely be:
*Warnock has picked up another knock and would not expected to feature (at least on the bench). Morientes is still not considered to be 100% match fit. Baros comes back from 3 match suspension.
Dudek

Finnan Hyypia Carragher Traore

Garcia Alonso Gerrard Riise

Baros
Morientes

SUBS: Carson, Pellegrino/Warnock, Cisse, Nunez, Biscan.

Dont think Cisse is quiet fit enough to start, but hope to see him for half hour of so.

by **zarababe** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 6:46 pm

Pompey 0- 2 Liverpool .. Garcia and Risse

Every single person was wrong LMAO Gerrard on the bench.

Hopefully its nothing more than Rafael being cautious because of his injury

by **the return of HAS** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 6:58 pm

Looks like his going with a 4-4-2:

Dudek

Finnan Hyypia Carragher Troare

Garcia Biscan Alonso Riise

Baros Morientes

Unless he wants Baros to play more wide right and Garcia off Morientes:

Dudek

Finnan Hyypia Carragher Troare

Biscan Alonso

Baros Garcia Riise

Morientes

Seems as though Gerrard is being rested, maybe his groin injury has flared up again.

by **morientes_gerrard** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 7:13 pm

I want to c cisse play the last 30mins, whatever the score, if winning replace him for baros, if losing replace him for a defender, cos 2nite is a MUST win game
