Just had a sneaky look on a Villa forum, they're not confident at all
Heskey and Laursen are out, Sidwell too
Thank feck.
I had heard he was due to be back in time for our game. His absence has arguably been one of the main factors in Villa's recent collapse.
That and the dip in form of their offensive and their lack of depth. Very good news though, they will be a lot weaker without him

This will probably be the one. Biggest weekend of the season so far, scousers draw on Saturday and we win on Sunday and suddenly it's business as usual again. Or we could be really screwed.
This even sticks out in a matchday thread as a spastic post. Well done!
I'm feeling confident
I feel refreshed about us, and I don't even fecking play. I reckon the players will have had time to reassess, and we'll be itching to get the win, especially after Liverpool go top on Sat.

That would be a horrible idea, Giggs behind Tevez, with Ronnie and Park/Nani on the wings, and a CM of Fletcher and Carrick
Friedel
Friedel
He's not that good, he is due a thrashing from United as well.
Jitevra's time to shine.
If Fulham were to repeat they're "heroics" from last matchday, then I'll be a happy man. They probably wont though. Plus, Paul Scholes doesnt play for liverpool.
and Danny Murphy does
That would be my team with maybe Nani for Park. Not bothered with with either off them playing but I'd like Nani to get a game in
hand on heart I really dont care what liverpool do at fulham today. the league is not in their hands. there seems to be this feeling creeping in everywhere that all liverpool have to do is win their games and they will be champions. they wont. even yesterday carragher was saying that liverpool were determined to win all their remaining games so that our game in hand would not matter. well I'd like everyone including our scouse friends to remember that the game in hand does matter. as does the point. and until we lose both we will be champions. the league is ours to win or lose and I only care about what we do
L'Pool can win every game 5-0 and still not win the title as long as we do our job. The media seems to forget that.
Heskey and Sidwell are in the squad, according to MEN.
giggs will score tomorrow
That piece of shite will do us no favours.Will be willing to apologise if he scores the winning goal for Fulham
TBH the best they've played this season is when they played their 4-5-1, but since they changed to a 4-4-2 with 2 strikers they have been poor and unable to win. So with Heskey out its likely that Oneil will go back to his old formation
But heres the team i reckon will be out tomorrow:
VDS
Neville Rio Evans Evra
Nani Carrick Fletcher Park
Ronaldo Tevez
Neville Rio Evans Evra
Nani Carrick Fletcher Park
Ronaldo Tevez
I've gone for Ronaldo and Tevez up front so Tevez can work behind Ronaldo, whenever Tevez is up front alone he drops deep too much and we have no one in attacking areas, add to that he had a long flight back and forth for the WCQ's he will need all the help he can get
1-0. Ronaldo.
Of course I'd take any type of win, 1-0 with the goal going in off O'Shea's arse cheek will be good enough for me but seriously, I'd love us to give them a good hiding, come on lads let's do it
Oh shit i just remembered that Friedel had his red over turned Why do keepers only raise their game when they play us!

If that happened i can see Liverpool fans/player lose their belief in a 19th title...
Probably the most likely result
I hear a few people saying that Macheda will start, come on a serious note i doubt he will even make the bench.
I remember when Evra was out and we all thought Fabio would get a game at times and he never even made the bench.
It's got to be Ronaldo and Tevez up front. Right Back is a bit of a tough one, i would go with O'Shea as the pace of Agbonlahor and A Young might be too much for Nev, not that O'Shea has got great pace.
As much as i want to see Nani get a game as i think he deserves a few chances, i will go with Park tomorrow and Nani Next weekend against Sunderland.
When Liverpool were 0-0 today i was looking forward to tomorrows game and once that goal went in, i am now dreading tomorrow, but hopefully the boys wont let us down.

2-0

i'll take a 1 nil...just want them fecking 3 points no matter how we get them.
Would love a last minute winner from Ronnie although I will be shitting myself if it takes that long to get a lead, a win is a win, also I think it would help the squad. I think that a blowout would be better, but I dont see it happening 2-0 at best, which is a good result against Villa, considering the players United have out.
3 points please, don't care how we get it, an own goal by villa or a peno would be fine. the most important thing is to get back to winning ways and get ahead of the scousers (can't believe the dippers are still in it).
I don't think we'll see Carrick today - I reckon we'll see a midfield of Nani - Fletch - Giggs - Park, with Ronaldo up top with Tevez, because our next game will be equally as tough, if not more, and is in 2 days. So I think we'll see Scholes - Carrick on Tuesday.
We must win today
