I agree. Lucas all the way, especially with what he showed last outing. I think Rodgers has instilled an offensive mentality in all our players, which elevates Lucas' game to another level.
Allen to start against Norwich for me.
A bit of a winger I agree in advance, but does anyone else think this May be the game where Brendan plays Lucas holding with Stevie moving further forward? Stevie's passing game would be closer to the last 3rd of the pitch to release our attacking 3, he runs a higher risk of a booking potentially but leading into the Norwich game would that be the end of the world and he would be first tackle against Yaya, which would make him think twice and stop him getting into his stride.
For me, I think Lucas and Allen would be dominated 1 vs 1 on Toure, with Stevie I don't have the same worry and this is potentially the pivotal area of the game. Dominating midfield stifles the supply to Aguero and pushes Silva and Nasri to drop deeper to get possession giving our defence more chance to set.
If it didn't work or we were ahead and his legs tired, then it would be an easy switch to revert back to a previous formation we have used and Gerrards adaptability would incorporate the possibility?
This could be the biggest game of the season with their games in hand
