Some uplifting news for the Liverpudlians. Stevie G is ready to rock n' roll against City this weekend. Will Liverpool join the list of clubs that have stuck it to City?

Personally, I think Liverpool played well against Birmingham - they faltered familiarly on set pieces but overall they were a number of positives.

Glen Johnson was unstoppable. Mascherano had a good game. Lucas was solid. Ngog minus the dive showed he could be the real deal. It will be important for him to continue in the same fashion as Torres is out till December. Aquilani in his cameo looked impressive. He should be ready for City for his first complete game.
