Pre-Bordeaux Overnight Open Thread

1) With Martin Skrtel sick and likely to miss the game, what the hell is happening at CB? Dejan Lovren + ???? = Profit, hopefully.

2) Will Lucas marshal the midfield knowing that he's getting a forced rest against Swansea on Sunday?

3) How and when will Christian Benteke and Daniel Sturridge feature, if at all?

4) How many youngsters make the bench?

5) Final score?

Bonus: One for the Harry Potter enthusiasts this week. If you had to sort Liverpool's squad into the various Hogwarts Houses, who would go where? The first Sorting Hat song is below for those who have no idea WTF the difference between the houses is.

You might belong in Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart / their daring, nerve, and chivalry set Gryffindors apart;

You might belong in Hufflepuff, where they are just and loyal / those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil;

Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind / where those of wit and learning will always find their kind;

Or perhaps in Slytherin you'll make your real friends / those cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends.
