I'm not a huge fan of Rooney in behind Sturridge. I'd prefer to see one of the two pushed out wide in a 4-3-3. Put Sterling on the other side, 2 of Henderson, Lallana, and Barkley in front of Gerrard. I think that's a pretty strong lineup with a nice mix of youth and veteran leadership.
I hope the media don't make anything of the red cards. It was silly on both sides in a meaningless game. It happens, move on.
