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.
During his playing career, Liverpool legend Graeme Souness played alongside some fantastically
talented players, and according to the combative midfielder, Spurs legend Glenn Hoddle is as good
as any of them.In an interview with TalkSport, Souness enthused:"He [Hoddle] was a star. "He had
ridiculous ability, and in terms of sheer talent, he was up there with anyone you want to name.

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

"CONFIRMED LINE-UP: Liverpool vs UNITED" was originally published at

Strangely enough, this will be the first time Liverpool have had Webb this season.
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
line-up:Reina, Kelly, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson, Gerrard, Spearing, Downing, Henderson, Bellamy,
CarrollSubs : Jose Enrique, Coates, Kuyt, Carragher, Shelvey, Adam, DoniIt seems likely that
Johnson will play at
Goals:Simpson 28'
Bellamy 30'
Gerrard 45' (pen)
Shelvey 68'
Carroll 89'
Downing 90+4'
It should be illegal to complain when Liverpool score five, including firsts for Shelvey and
Downing and a cameo from Carroll off the bench, no matter the opposition or merits of overall
performance.
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.
3pm ET, not live on TV anywhere in the world. The whole world, apparently. So there probably won't
be streams and there probably won't be an OYB match review either. Yes, this sucks. I'm sorry.
Last four head-to-head:
3-0 Liverpool (a) 01.15.94
2-1 Liverpool (h) 10.16.93
2-3 Oldham (a) 05.
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.

Squad sheets: Liverpool v Blackburn Rovers
Never before has this fixture been so much about the individuals involved. On one side there is
Luis Suárez, playing at Anfield for the first time since receiving an eight-match ban from the
Football Association, while on the other stands Steve Kean, the beleaguered Blackburn manager who
arrives on Merseyside with his team in last place and their fans calling ever louder for him to be
sacked.
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.
Squad sheets: Wigan Athletic v Liverpool
Wigan have fared surprisingly well in recent meetings here, taking a win and two draws from the
last three, and have lost one in five against Liverpool overall, but Roberto Martínez feels that
at present Kenny Dalglish's side offers a particularly stern test.
Squad sheets: Aston Villa v Liverpool
Stewart Downing, who scored the only goal of the game in the corresponding fixture at the end of
last season, can expect a hostile reception from Aston Villa supporters on his return to his former
club. The England winger has still to score for a Liverpool side that have lost only once in their
last 10 league matches.

Martin Skrtel and Daniel Agger are doing a great job in defence for Liverpool at the moment, but
former Anfield defender Mark Wright insists that the club is not currently playing its best
defensive pairing. Speaking on the Official LFC Site, Wright was put on the spot and asked to name
Liverpool's best current defensive partnership.
Kenny Dalglish seems determined to stop the *proven* combination of Luis Suarez, Craig Bellamy and
Maxi Rodrigues playing in the same team, and has named a side with Maxi and Suarez starting, and
Bellamy on the bench.The full team:Reina, Johnson, Enrique, Skrtel, Agger, Adam, Henderson,
Downing, Maxi, Kuyt, Suarez.

Martin Skrtel is a star performer in Liverpool's defence at the moment, and he's kept defensive
stalwart Jamie Carragher out of the team with his solid, assured performances. However, according
to Liverpool legend John Aldridge, Skrtel's form has been a concern in the past, and he has a
theory about why the Slovakian is currently playing so well.

Liverpool defensive stalwart Jamie Carragher has revealed his frustration over the club's failure
to reach a final or a semi-final of a domestic cup competition since 2006.
Carra, who helped Liverpool keep a clean sheet against Chelsea in the recent Carling Cup quarter
final, said:
"The minimum Liverpool should be looking at each season is getting to the semi-final of one of the
cup competitions, either the FA Cup or the Carling Cup.

Squad sheets: Fulham v Liverpool
Mixed emotions will accompany Liverpool on their annual trip to the Thames. The squad will
reflect fondly on how they beat the hosts 5-2 in this fixture last season with a breathless and, at
times, awesome, attacking display, but there will also be sadness at the recent loss of Lucas Leiva
to a season-ending knee injury.
Carling Cup hero Craig Bellamy is a big fan of veteran Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher, and he's
thankful to be playing alongside him during his second spell at Anfield.
Bellamy is never short of an opinion or two, both on and off the field, and he appreciates Carra's
honest, no-nonsense approach to life at Anfield:
"Carra's been there for a lot of years and he's big figure at the club.

Strength in depth takes the Reds a step nearer Wembley
Carling Cup Quarter Final – Result Chelsea 0 Liverpool 2 ACCORDING to some, November is
supposed to be Liverpool's bad month. It probably has been at times, although last season it was
maybe the best month out of all the dreadful ones under the manager the club had started the season
with.
