Could be very exciting. Could be a disaster.

Not convinced Bennett has the smarts to play that system.

5 at the back was awful against Man City in the cup, worked a treat against Man Utd.

But is 5 at the back, at home, showing a misfiring Liverpool too much respect?

yep, i can understand 5 at the back away to man city or united, chelsea, arsenal etc, but at home to Liverpool is a big no from me, since beating Man City away in the league, liverpool have lost 3 of the next 4 away only scoring 1 goal in the process

5 at the back against a mid table team struggling to score seems wrong.

Clear suggestion Pinto starting but mixed message about Russ.   Roll on 1145

Now looking like a 4 with Martin and Bassong in the centre.

It is but both Willo and Ray have called it that way and they usually have it right.

Yeah, to be fair, they usually do.

Ah well, whatever Alex Neil thinks is necessary to win the game....

Tettey not involved due to illness, makes me a little worried about us with no natural ball winner in the side with no O'Neil, Tettey or Mulumbu in there

also would of liked to of seen Jerome start, and just realised theres no Bennett in the 18

Especially against a team who you would expect to have a lot of the ball, but we'll see. 

Exciting to see two new signings on the pitch.

What on Earth is that team? I understand that Neil wants his captain in the team but seriously he must see that Martin is not good enough. I really hope that Klose hasn't been bought in to play alongside Martin. 

Why is Dorrans ahead of Mulumbu as well? We need a defensive midfielder in there and we have one on the bench not being used. Wes out of position as well. This is a really strange selection from Neil, and questions will rightly get asked should we lose now.

Interesting team, again a lot of tinkering, but if it wins us the game we will all be happy. I am just relieved that its not Bassong who has been left out, as contrary to some others, I actually think he is one defender who is having a decent season. This team will surely play on the front foot, so I expect a high scoring game.

I think Bennett must be injured, doubt Martin would have started there otherwise.  

Couldn't have seen this team coming. Looks like we're going for it.

Seems to be going all right so far...

Mbokani and Naismith are the real deal. Both quality goals.
