A quote from the forums on the liverpool site There's another post suggesting that Jay Spearing's partner said it was because liverpool rejected an £19m bid for him, which I personally don't think is good enough. Without Mascherano or Gerrard in the midfield, I can't see us winning this one Although Torres is playing...
Man City: Hart, Richards, Toure, Kompany, Lescott, De Jong, Toure Yaya, Barry, Milner, Adam Johnson, Tevez. Subs: Given, Zabaleta, Wright-Phillips, Adebayor, Silva, Vieira, Jo. Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Skrtel, Carragher, Agger, Jovanovic, Gerrard, Lucas, Kuyt, Torres, Ngog. Subs: Jones, Aurelio, Pacheco, Kyrgiakos, Maxi, Babel, Poulsen.
And the formation, but he got the important one, Mascherano, correct. Surprised and disappointed to see Agger at left back, although it may be Roy's way of saying he's trying to buy someone new... hopefully
I think he's a fantastic centre back, the key word there being centre, he isn't a left back, and we have Aurelio fit and available.
Carragher's not as good as Agger or Skrtel, but some of the fans would have a heart attack if he was dropped, purely because he's from Liverpool, and what he's done for the club
Exactly, Jovanic is doing next to nothing whether we have the ball or not, but we're coming into the game more
lol.....looks like good ol times for liverpool again!!! Gerrard complaint about diving gots to be the biggest irony ever.
All I'm saying is that I've watched every Liverpool game since Gerrard hit the big time, and before that, and can remember him diving about thrice.
