(which ever comes first.) The team has a good two weeks off before Man City on the 22nd and since every game is a must win, I think he pushes himself through. <BR/><BR/>That being said, I imagine the line-up will look something like<BR/><BR/>Arbeloa-Carragher-Skrtel-Aurelio<BR/> Masch Alonso<BR/> Benayoun Riera<BR/> Kuyt Torres<BR/><BR/>Yossi has been our best attacker for the past three weeks and deserves the full 90 for once, and with Masch playing like his usual self I can see Alonso pushing forward a lot more in Gerrard's absence.Shawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17645772313785907022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-74191247620114360482009-02-05T09:51:00.000-05:002009-02-05T09:51:00.000-05:00oh and fyi:lucas is suspended for pompey b/c the t...oh and fyi:<BR/><BR/>lucas is suspended for pompey b/c the two yellows = red card kicks in right away.<BR/><BR/>alonso will miss the city match on 2/22 because it takes 7 days for accumulated yellows (5 in this case) to kick in.<BR/><BR/>at least both aren't suspended for pompey with gerrard out.natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043601945557998732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-6811140631995264562009-02-05T09:35:00.000-05:002009-02-05T09:35:00.000-05:00"torn hamstring""The midfielder will now miss Satu..."torn hamstring"<BR/><BR/>"The midfielder will now miss Saturday's match against Portsmouth, England's friendly against Spain next week and the visit of Manchester City."<BR/><BR/>"a race against time to be fit for the Champions League tie against Real Madrid on 25 February."<BR/><BR/>foxtrot uniform charlie kilo.natehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043601945557998732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-44848732983772688832009-02-05T08:31:00.000-05:002009-02-05T08:31:00.000-05:00Pienar should've been sent off long before Lucas w...Pienar should've been sent off long before Lucas was.Marlonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16019605515527082418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-32259770510696148772009-02-05T00:28:00.000-05:002009-02-05T00:28:00.000-05:00It's always disappointing to lose matches to rival...It's always disappointing to lose matches to rivals, but the manner in which this one was lost was particularly rough. That combined with Gerrard's injury (please, please let it be nothing) makes it a really jagged pill. <BR/><BR/>That said, the bright side is that the fixture congestion problem has been mitigated. This could be even more significant given that our forward options took a hit over the window. Here's hoping that we don't have to rely on a teenaged Frenchman for big goals down the stretch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
