0:17.1

tackled today with myself and Ben Botchak. We're writers on Liverpool.com. Be sure to check out Liverpool.

0:23.0

Well, we've got two pieces sort of around this dilemma

0:25.6

that have gone up this morning.

0:26.8

0:29.8

who should play an attack against Manchester City. It's amazing it's even a dilemma in some
