Irons defensive doubts for Liverpool

|
james-tomkinsWest Ham are facing some late defensive selection decisions this afternoon as they bid to collect their first win at Anfield in over half a century.
There are doubts over Carl Jenkinson and James Tomkins as the lads head for Anfield looking for their first win in the stadium since 1963.
Both players apparently have taken knocks and the manager Sam Allardyce will make up his mind up just before kick off although a Winston Reid/James Collins central defensive partnership looks likely. with Guy Demel and Joey O’Brien on standby
Chiek Kouyate is fit to play should Allardyce decide to launch him into the action.

    With Collins alongside Ried and Demel at right back its even more important for Kouayte to play alongside Song in the centre of midfield,maybe then Downing and Noble with 3 up front Valencia ,Carroll and Sakho,
    Jarvis,Cole,O,Brien,Alfitano and Nolan or Booth on the bench plus the keeper

    Wishful thinking bubs! Only trouble being, Allardyce is manager.
