The first day of a gameweek that stretches over five successive days gets underway shortly at Molineux. Follow all the day’s action with us in our Dugout Discussion chatroom.

So Mick McCarthy’s side host a Liverpool team looking to avenge the defeat from their previous league meeting in today’s early game, and the team sheets are in…

Wolves XI: Hennessey, Zubar, Stearman, Berra, Ward, Jarvis, Henry, Milijas, Hunt, Doyle, Fletcher

Liverpool XI: Reina, Kelly, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson, Kuyt, Lucas, Poulsen, Meireles, Maxi, Torres

Both sides line-up as expected, with only Christian Poulsen starting ahead of Jay Spearing for the visitors.

Following that we have a colossal seven fixtures this afternoon and evening. At 3pm Arsenal host Wigan, Blackpool kick-off their home double against Darren Bentless Sunderland, West Ham travel to Steven Pienaarless Everton, Fulham welcome the visit of Stoke, Man United take on Birmingham and Spurs are up at Newcastle.

Then, this evening, big-spenders Man City face big-spenders Aston Villa at Villa Park.

Akers Richard or Akers, as he is known, has been regularly haunting this site since July 2008. He is young and foolish, take what he says with a pinch of salt. Follow them on Twitter

            Anderson is 22. For a 22 year old central midfielder who never gets more than 3 or 4 games in a row he is immense. He could easily be one of the best central mids in europe within 3 to 4 years

        no, but it's just the fact that it's so clearly because he hates Ferguson. It was the same thing when Mourinho was in England. I also love the fact that he single handedly managed to make a treble/champions league winning team average in less than half a season.

              I'm saying that you, personally, are unable to overlook that fact because you didn't know football existed before 2005.

              You don't agree with Benitez, fair enough, but calling him a 'muppet' for having a perfectly reasonably opinion is ludicrous.

                It's not that I'm saying Wenger doesn't deserve credit for what he did with Arsenal and isn't a good manager, it's that Benitez is clearly never going to praise people like Ferguson and mourinho just because he's bitter at how they have consistently shown their superiority over him.

          Fergie has his own wonderful record and has won more trophies.

          But Wenger has also transformed an entire clubs playing style.

      Liking the team, great team value and stuff. But 2 arsenal players on bench at home v wigan? horrendous. Nasri in for VDV would have been better imo, but i guess its about who scores arsenal's goals, and if ur lucky nasri might draw a blank again with fabs and RVP doing the job

        tell me about it... i must have done 20 changes between dj, vdv and nas in the final 15 mins today. RVP/cahill coming in for nas/torres now though... unless nando carries on the way he's going 😛

      It was fine, you can clearly see a bit of mud from his boots making contact with the ball. Play on.
