I'm afraid t say I didn't beat the poo yesterday! Having said that that's exactly what I expect us to do bounce right back. But I do fear they have a way of mugging us. Sturridge and courtinho being back fear me but with the crowd and them having a better team may leave us in a position we are more comfortable with

I'll always have faith that we can bounce back, We must match em,sharpness,quickness and aggression,their defence is there to be got at,they have conceded 14 times in the past six games,2 of them goals by us, sounds good to me!

That's just it - if we are quick off the mark they wont be able to handle it but if we are sluggish and concede early they will shut up shop and we will be in trouble. Who would you start with emeneke,Carroll or Valencia ?

Better cover my arse here Harry but I think and others have said ( not official I admit) that as the tie has already started when he signed he can't play tonight. Which if true makes me wonder how far this goes as he wasn't signed when the Blackburn game was drawn.

Carroll for me too as emeneke if he is eligible didn't show enough Saturday to warrant a start ahead of him. Valencia frustrates me.

Service is the key, spot on Moore.
Carroll will relish bullying that back four with some quality crosses.
We need to move the ball a lot quicker though.

Apples and pears 65 yes service is always paramount but if there is no movement ahead of the ball service isn't gona make a blind bit of differance. So I'm saying movement as if there us good movement our players will give good service.

More the worry is who do you play across the back? I hear Thomkins is out, Byram is cup-tied. Do you start with Joey O Brien? How about Kyouayte at right back and give Oxford a run in midfield?

He done a few good things at Anfield but having him in the starting lineup doesn't inspire me with confidence... One thing is - if he's starting at RB, we can't have Moses on the wing as Poo will exploit that side of the pitch for their attack O'Brien will need support in defence. I just hope he isn't forced into making any reckless challenges

I agree joey not inspiring Moses even less inspiring! Just wonder if Oxford can do a job at rb? Wouldn't have Moses anywhere near the pitch for this one
