AML) Adam Lallana
Unlike Sterling on the other flank, Lallana, if selected, will likely drift inside and link up with the midfielders rather than look to beat his fullback.
AM/FC) Wayne Rooney
Roy Hodgson and skipper Gerrard recently refuted Paul Scholes’ claims that Rooney is past his best, and the talisman will be looking to prove his former teammate wrong tonight.
FC) Daniel Sturridge
Liverpool’s striker provides the side with a direct threat in behind because of his pace, and it would be wasted if Hodgson played it safe and deployed him on the left. This is the manager’s chance to test Rooney and Sturridge in a genuine forward pairing.
