Stilll no idea how this is going to pan out.   Just pray he doesnt start with the mule.

With Gabby out I fear he will - cue hoof and flick-on football

If he does he is merely putting nails in his own coffin.

Kendrick thinks Bent is out. Which I reckon means Heskey definitely starts; and probably Bannan ahead of one of the young forwards. Although it would be interesting to see Bannan on the left and N'Zogbia behind Heskey.

Either way, I reckon 2-0 Liverpool.

[TonyD]

Still have the Fonz and Weimann.  No need for the mule.

If there's any truth in Bent being out I'd rather go with Delfouneso and Weimann, a bit of unpredictability, it'll obviously be Heskey as a lone striker though.

[Matt Collins]

The Fonz AND Weimann? That would be a bit of a gamble wouldn't it? One or the other plus Heskey I'd have thought, but not both.

[TonyD]

Rather gamble than have a dead cert. The dead cert being a truly awful player who won't score or set up a goal. There is no point in playing the mule. Rather have 10 men.

[Mister E]

My guess is that it'll be Heskey with Albie and N'Zog either side. Herd, Petrov and Delph in MF.

[VillaAlways]

I've just read on RAWK that Darren Bent pulled out of training yesterday.How they know that,I don't know

So those scousers know more than us

[Chipsticks]

0-0 I done recon

[Andy Poole]

Apparently!

And if they are winning, not much noise anyway until the last few minutes and then they start singing YNWA.

Has any set of away fans been more quiet than when they were 2 up than that lot were in the second half?

Childish I know but the only points i'll be scoring today!
