I HATE HIMLiverpool face Man Utd at Old Trafford on Saturday lunch-time in what
may look like a daunting task, to earn points away at the Manchester venue.
On paper, it seems a difficult job to get anything from the game, but I believe Liverpool are in
the right frame of mind to gain at least a point, if not all three against Ferguson's creaking
side.

As I predicted earlier today, Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has left Luis Suarez on the bench
for tonight's game with Spurs at Anfield. Jose Enrique is injured, which probably means Glen
Johnson will play at left-back.Full Team: Reina; Kelly, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson, Spearing, Adam,
Gerrard, Kuyt, Bellamy, Carroll.
Kenny Dalglish has made five changes for the game against Wolves tonight.FULL TEAM: Reina, Enrique,
Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Spearing, Adam, Kuyt, Henderson, Bellamy, CarrollSUBS: Doni, Carra, Coates,
Kelly Aurelio, Shelvey, DowningIt looks like Steven Gerrard has been rested for this game, which is
understandable after the heavy fixture list recently.
Daniel Agger scored an excellent headed goal against Man United in the FA Cup earlier today, and
whilst he's happy that Liverpool won the game and got through to the next round, the Dane is fully
focused on the premier league, and he's called for an improved performance against Wolves next
week.

Kenny Dalglish has made four changes to the side that beat Manchester City for today's crunch clash
with Manchester United. With five defenders named in the staring eleven, it looks like Kenny
Dalglish may (unfortunately) go with a more defensive formation.Here is the full team: Reina,
Kelly, Enrique, Agger, Skrtel, Carragher, Henderson, Gerrard, Downing, Maxi, Carroll.

Liverpool turn their attentions back to the Premier League this weekend when they welcome Stoke to
Anfield after two games in the FA Cup and Carling Cup.
The Reds go into the clash boosted by the news that skipper Steven Gerrard has signed a new
long-term deal which is likely to see him end his playing career at Anfield.

"You got once chance, mon frere!"
It was a bit of a strange, suffocating old game but, thanks principally to Kenny Dalglish
switching to a flat-back nine for the majority of the second-half, Liverpool came away from the
Etihad with the slimmest of advantages (City's first back-to-back home defeat since February 2008)
to take back to Anfield for the second leg.
Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has sprung another minor surprise tonight by leaving Jose Enrique
on the bench for the Carling Cup semi-final first leg against Manchester City.Starting

Anfield Rd: Gerrard starts for Reds in cup 3rd round
Liverpool have their captain back as Steven Gerrard makes his first start since his
pre-Christmas injury lay-off. Manager Kenny Dalglish has picked a strong side for the visit of
Oldham in this Budweiser sponsored cup match, but as strong as it might be it isn't Liverpool's
strongest.
Liverpool's depressing 2-1 defeat to AC Milan in the 2007 Champions League final was hard to take
for players and fans alike, and Daniel Agger has revealed that he still feels the heartache of
losing such an important game.Rafa Benitez inexplicably picked Bolo Zenden and Jermain Pennant
ahead of the (arguably) more deserving Craig Bellamy and Peter Crouch that night, and I think that

Pepe Reina flubbed what should have been a fairly simple stop off a Sergio Aguero drive.
Liverpool dominated possession thereafter but it was City once again going up through Yaya Toure's
header at the half an hour mark.
Gerrard and Craig Bellamy were introduced by Kenny Dalglish after an hour and Liverpool looked
more mobile going forward although they failed to look threatening in the final third once
again.
Kuyt back and Gerrard on bench as Suarez ban begins
THE ANNOUNCEMENT that a decision had been made not to appeal the eight-game ban imposed on Luis
Suarez by The FA's independent panel meant that the suspension kicked in immediately and so Suarez
would not be available for tonight's match against Manchester City.

This news item has been reproduced from today's media.
Daniel Agger and Martin Skrtel have forged a fantastic central defensive partnership over the last
couple of months, but who is currently playing the best out of the two?Like most great defensive
partnerships, Agger and Skrtel complement each other very well. Skrtel is the Carra/Lawrenson-esque
'last-ditch' scrapper, whereas Agger is the more elegant, Hansen-esque ball-player.
Denmark coach Morten Olsen has controversially claimed that Liverpool defender Daniel Agger is not
playing at a level that befits his prodigious talents.Olsen, who will lead Denmark in the European
Championships next year, believes that Agger is playing the best football of his career:"Currently,
we are seeing Agger at his best, and it is because he is fit and has recovered from his injuries.
Highlights of the game: First came an own goal by Agger for Newcastle, which looked more like a
Cabaye goal really. Then however Liverpool struck back with three goals, the first two goals from
ex Newcastle United striker Craig Bellamy, and finally, a goal off the bench from substitute Steven
Gerrard.
Two goals from Craig Bellamy and one from Steven Gerrard was enough for Liverpool tonight, as
they beat Newcastle 3-1 in a tight match at Anfield tonight.
It was the first time Liverpool had scored three goals in a match since the August 27 win over
Bolton and ended a spell where Liverpool had drawn four of its previous five home matches.

With all the furore over Luis Suarez getting another ban, Liverpool getting a £20,000 fine over
Jay Spearing getting sent off and all the dismal draws instead of wins as we slide down the table,
it is the same old story with Liverpool FC, failure to beat lower league opposition, failure to
stay in touch with the Manchester teams and now Tottenham Hotspur.

Liverpool v Blackburn – Stevie on the bench
Boxing day sees Blackburn visit Anfield and Reds captain Steven Gerrard is fit enough for a
place on the bench after his injury lay-off. Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll both start for the hosts,
Kuyt and Bellamy joining the captain on the bench alongside vice-captain Jamie Carragher.

Daniel Agger is in a rich vein of form for Liverpool at the moment, and he's been integral to
helping the club achieve the best defensive record in the league. It's hardly surprising that Agger
has developed into such a great defender; he's has had great role models at Anfield, and the Dane
credits one player in particular with having a massive impact on his career.
Last month, Pepe Reina expressed the view that Andy Carroll was Liverpool's 'worst trainer', saying
that 'he doesn't run too many yards'. Well, according to Daniel Agger, another one of the club's
forwards is also pretty lazy on the training ground, and you'll probably be surprised about who it
is.
Wigan v Liverpool: Solidarity on show as Suarez starts.
The Liverpool team for tonight's visit to the DW Stadium includes Luis Suarez and is solidly
behind Luis Suarez. Maxi and Kuyt for Bellamy and Shelvey are the only changes. This is the
statement the squad released collectively this evening: Luis Suarez is our teammate and our friend
and as a group of players we are shocked and angered that he has been found guilty by the FA.
Goals:Bellamy 11'
Skrtel 15'
Winning with ease when not on top form is far more fun than frustrating draws or defeats when
dominant. Still, if not for converting the first two corners within 15 minutes, Liverpool could
well be ruing more missed chances and more effort rebounding off wider-than-normal goal posts.
Aston Villa v Liverpool – as it happened
Liverpool scored from two early corners and strolled to victory against a poor, pretty much
attack-free Aston Villa side Preamble: Aston Villa must carry particularly good memories for
Liverpool fans. I'm not even a Liverpool fan, but I can remember half a dozen stonking moments
between these two clubs.
Liverpool Lineup:
Reina, Johnson, Agger, Skrtel, Enrique, Adam, Henderson, Downing, Shelvey, Bellamy, Suarez
Subs: Doni, Carragher, Coates, Kelly, Maxi, Kuyt, Carroll
