AMR/L) Raheem Sterling
Liverpool’s most creative player in Europe, Sterling showed glimpses that he’s getting back to his unplayable best with a great assist for Henderson’s goal. He struggles when asked to stick strictly to the right wing, so expect the two attacking midfielders deployed to be given free reign to swap wings and drift infield.
AML/R) Adam Lallana
Lallana is likely to get the nod ahead of Coutinho, although fans would probably love the Brazilian to be given a pivotal no.10 role, in a diamond behind Sterling and Lambert up top. Based on previous selections though, this seems unlikely.
FC) Rickie Lambert
The summer signing has bagged two in two, and with Mario Balotelli not 100% fit, he’s certain to be given another chance up top.
