in the week leading up to the derby we've lost coleman, mori, schneiderlin and mccarthy. We're going to have a very weak squad tomorrow, especially with bolasie and besic already out.

I'd have gone with 5 at the back even with schneiderlin, but the fact of the matter now is we don't have enough bodies.

I'd like (use the term loosely) from the scraps we have available

Robles
Kenny Holgate Williams Jagielka Baines
Davies Barry Gueye
Mirallas Lukaku Barkley

But that's a dangerously slow team. Kenny may be the long term successor to coleman and could save us having to fork out a wod for a new RB. We have nothing left to lose this season, he has to play for the remainder of this season for me so we can see how he copes, we've seen what holgate can do and he's also not a long term option for right back.
 
Sturridge, Lallana and Henderson out for them

Schneiderlein, Coleman and Mori out for us

Evens itself up slightly just a shame Mccarthy never put ROI over us again as he could have been the difference in midfield rather than Barry
 
Gana can play the defensive roll, or would you rather have Barry in front of Jags and Williams, combined age 100?

Liverpool don't play a proper striker, they have 4 attacking players who roam around. You can't possibly get away with 1 defensive midfielder. I don't want Barry in either but he's certainly a better option in that role than Barkley. Barkley has to stay where he has been brilliant in the last few months.

The real brave move would be to throw Walsh or someone else from the U23's in. But I wouldn't do that myself.

That's a 533 formation mate.
 
..I'm not overly bothered who's fit or who plays in this match. We've had good strong teams go there often enough and come back with their tales between their legs. Whoever plays, we'll have to defend well, ride our luck and take a couple of chances if and when they happen.
