Liverpool at Marseilles: Does it matter what Rafa does?

I'm still in shock that Lucas didn't see the pitch on Saturday. Not that I think it would have mattered. The official had already cashed the check.

Honestly, I have no clue what kind of side Rafa will field tomorrow. Whether Agger or Alonso will be available is unclear. The only thing that I'm sure of is that Hyypiä will start, everything else is a guessing game. I'm hoping Rafa shows some guile.

I would go with Aurelio on the left if available, if not probably Arbeloa since it appears Finnan will go on the right. Carra and the Finn are the only options in the middle.

On the left in the midfield, I like Kewell. His European experience is invaluable. Gerrard and Mascherano should anchor the middle with Benayoun on the right.

Up front, I'm guessing Kuyt and Crouch, pending the fitness of Torres, of course.

Here's my final answer:
Reina
Aurelio (or Arbeloa)
Carra
Hyypiä
Finnan
Kewell
Gerrard
Mascherano
Benayoun
Kuyt
Torres (or Crouch)

Bench:
Itandje
Babel
Riise
Hobbs
Crouch (or Sissoko)
Lucas
Voronin

That's pretty much our entire squad.

Three points is the only option, everything else is unacceptable.
