Chelsea and Arsenal went out tonight and Everton just about scraped past Norwich on pens so this cup could be a decent opportunity for Jurgen to win his first piece of silverware in this country. If we beat Bournemouth we are into the last 8 (QF's).

Lets hope we do capitalise however we are unpredictable at the moment so anything is possible.

We will notch a win very soon and im hoping it will be tomorrow.

Doubt many will agree with me, but I'd like to see us give on or two fringe players a chance tomorrow. Especially the youngsters.

Benteke is out of the match with a knee ligament problem and is a doubt for chelsea also

Benteke ruled out. I'd go with a mix of starters and subs:

                     Mignolet

Clyne     Skrtel     Sakho     Enrique

     Ibe     Allen     Can

               Firmino     

        Origi     Sinclair

It's a trophy we could actually win this season, I'd field our strongest available.

Worry about the Chelsea game later.

This is getting ridiculous now

Well if thats the case then lads get prepared for another glorious borefest.
This will go to pens.

Can't believe how bad this year were hit with striker injuries.

looks like klopp's going with the youth. apparently teixera, brannagan and randall will be getting full debuts. looking forward to seeing them, and just hoping they do better than arsenal's youngsters.

That could be a mistake imo, Bournemouth are no mugs, they got promoted last year by winning the Championship which is a tough division to get out of and okay they might come up a bit short against the top clubs and the top players but our U21 players certainly aren't going to worry the type of grizzled lower league veterans they have got in their outfit.
With Chelsea, Arsenal and Spurs already out of this cup this could be our best chance of winning something this year, yes I know top 4 is the priority but the way our strikers keep on going down like 9 pins it's going to be very hard for us to find the type of consistency that's needed to finish in the CL places.
As I say this compo could be our best chance of achieving something.

Randall, Brannagan and Teixeira all start, Jerome Sinclair is on the bench

Confirmed LFC team: Bogdan, Clyne, Toure, Lovren, Randall, Allen, Brannagan, Teixeira, Ibe, Firmino, Origi

Confirmed subs: Skrtel, Moreno, Lucas, Lallana, Coutinho, Sinclair

Anybody have a good link?

1 nil clyne

Anyone who would open a spare parts shop near Anfield would make a fortune our players are made of melting ice...Now Toure drops...
