I'd say a mixture of young and old, although Ward has to start for me!

Tough one this, I mean, it is the FA cup. That said, our best finish in years came with no cup footy and no euro.
If you had a choice:
1. Progress further in the FA cup and the europa and finish 6th
2. Out of the FA, some progress in europa and finish 5th
3. Out of FA and europa and finish 4th
Easy choice surely?

Klopp needs to rotate and rest players more - it is clear to see that a lot of the players are tiring. I think Klopp has been slightly naïve as to the demands of the playing schedule. We will most likely pay the price in one of the competitions. I hope I am very wrong though, but still feel Klopp needs to rotate the squad more.

If you think Klopp will just allow another loss without a whimper vs WH which is what will happen if we play the kids, then you're fooling yourself. I hate losing and so does Klopp. He will play a team competitive enough to finally beat WH who we have let off the hook by never challenging them physically in our two losses. Play every game to win it and stop with this thing about saving players for other games.

Liverpres
If you were to rotate the squad as klopp and taking into account current injuries and poor performances from certain individuals how would you rotate the squad without affecting what has been improved on the pitch since he took over?

Who would you rotate and who would you keep as a regular as there has to be certain players in a rotation system that just has to keep playing to keep consistently in their playing style and performance

Would be interesting to see what others opinions on this would be

Personally right now I don't think a rotation system would work very well as we just have too many on the books who quite frankly are just not good enough to be at the club at present and hopefully will be moved on this summer and replaced with real quality and then a possible rotation system could be implemented to a certain degree but a system like that takes time to get right it's not as simple as many think.

Savvy - Klopp has rotated players somewhat, but not enough. I hear what you're saying with injuries etc - they haven't helped. Smith and Allen are two players that could have had a start or two recently. I also don't think it would be the worst idea to start Benteke in certain games. I do trust Klopp, but think even he would admit that the heavy schedule of games has taken its toll, and in hindsight, maybe he would have rested players more where the situation/ game allowed.

Zimbo - I almost agree fully - I think Can would benefit from a rest also. Lucas in for Can.

not a bad selection Zimbo

I would swap Clyne for flanno and swap the position of can and allen with lovren behind allen

SO WOULD LOOK LIKE THIS

--------Migs-------

Flanno-sakho-smith

------Lovren-----

------Allen------

---Can-----Texeira---

Ojo---Benteke---Ibe--.


14.) 28 Jan 2016

------Ward------
Flanno---Lovren---Sakho---Smith
-----------Lucas-----------
- ----Can---------Hendo--------
Ibe------Benteke-------Lallana.

I find it amusing that people are posting about our best team and we have to give ourselves the best chance etc when WH have beaten us soundly recently. Its about adapting to the game and doing things the opposition find difficult to play against. They clearly don't find out "first team" difficult to play against. IE weak at defending crosses and set pieces, a lack of pace and penetration up front. considering out goal scoring record generally why not play young forwards?

I would play Ojo and Ibe either side of Benteke and see where it takes.
