He can go in the middle!

It would be interesting to see Ibe upfront with Sterling behind.

Fans protest, don't score goals. How can we not Win [emoji15]

Toss Pot
Markovic - Can - Skrtel - Sakho - Moreno
Lucas
Henderson - Coutinho - Sterling
Balotelli

Can't believe you've called Mignolet a "toss pot" and then picked a lineup with that non-scoring idiot upfront.

 

[white-sox]

Should I have used a nickname for Balotelli too?

Don't think that would of worked as a nickname. Its about as witty as Toss pot.

Would it? He hasn't even been playing as striker for Derby right so why try it here?

He just seems very direct and eager to get in on goal, I think he'll eventually become a centre forward.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe?]

Can we recall Will Hughes while we're at it?

 

[hmmmmm1]

Rumours saying sterling and Fabio to start and gerrard is out of this match

When we were shoehorning Sterling into that role last season, we opted to try Ibe there a fair bit, particularly in preseason and it worked quite well.

You might be right - I was distracted during the first half.

I'm blaming @CommicalAlly

I'm a pretty funny guy! And Stevie's a top top bloke as Brendan would put it.
