AMRC) Steven Gerrard
Our biggest decision is to put Gerrard back into the lineup at the expense of Adam Lallana in the attacking three. Lallana was poor versus Blackburn and Swansea, and might be more useful as an impact substitute in the second-half. Gerrard will be enormously up for the clash – which is likely to be his last ever against our bitterest rivals. Let him at ’em…
AMLC) Coutinho
The Brazilian is another guaranteed starter, playing in a free role slightly on the left of the front-three. He thrived in our last massive game against Manchester City, and few would bet against him doing it again. If he really turns it on, he can win us the game singlehandedly.
FC) Raheem Sterling
Daniel Sturridge has been off-colour, and we think that Sterling should play the central striking role instead of our more natural starting forward. Sterling offers unbelievable pace in behind, and will be able to press and harry better than Sturridge – who like Lallana, will offer a genuinely classy option from the bench.
