Liverpool Football Club
This is my first guide so if you feel i should add anything else in future guides please say so.
Some of you may disagree with this guide but its from my point of view and i have been Liverpool on every FM/CM game and done very well so i think it will we useful to some people.
So here we go
Goal Keepers:
Jose Manuel Reina
Diego Cavalieri
David Martin
Peter Gulacis
Bit of a easy pick out of the keepers Reina should be your first pick keeper being one of the best keepers in real life he is also one of the best on the game ticking most of the boxes for a super keeper Reflexes(18), Handling(16), Kicking(18), Rushing Out(18) One On Ones(15) Positioning(18) You get the picture. If you do need to use a backup keeper Cavalieri would be your best bet he is a pretty decent back up.
Left Backs:
Emlilano Insua
Fabio Aurelio
Andrea Dossena
Many people would pick Aurelio as the first pick left-back but i tend to go with Insua as on the game he seems to give a better performance and he is young and has great potential and with the right training can be super, for the back up then Aurelio would be the man for you he is also a pretty creative Left back, Creativity(16) which should help. then if worse does come to worse Dossena would have to step up but if you could it would be good to avoid this as he is not the best left back the world has seen his Physical stats are rather good Stamina(20) Pace(16) Natural Fitness(17) Acceleration(17) but his defensive stats are not the best.
Right Backs:
Glen Johnson
Jamie Carragher
Philipp Degen
A weak part of the Liverpool side so you could do with buying a new Right-Back if you can afford it Glen Johnson should be your first pick as Carragher is naturally a Center back but can play Right Back if needed and Degen is not the best so would try use him as little as possible.
Center Backs:
Jamie Carragher
Daniel Agger
Martin Skrtel
Sotiris Kyrgiakos
Carragher should be playing all the games if he can so he fills one of the CB spots the second one is a little hard to pick as Agger & Skrtel are both very good at what they do so its really up to you on this one which ever one you do pick will do a good job i tend to go with Agger as he seems to be more consistent then if the one you do pick cant play then the best pick would be the other one Kyrgiakos i think would be picked if you really having problems at the back as i am not to keen on his he tends to get loads of red cards on the game so you don't want that all the time.
Defensive Mids
Javier Mascherano
Lucas
Damien Plessis
If you want to try and play like Liverpool then you are going to need 2 DM and with Liverpool only having 2 good natural ones you may need to buy one as back up so if you do use 2 Lucas and Masch would be the 2 you should pick both work well together in real life and they do in the game Masch is i think one of the best on the game with his great stats Tackling(20) Marking(18) First Touch(16) Work Rate(18) Teamwork(18) Positioning(19) Influence(16) just to name a few but as you will see when you do look at him he is great.
Center Mids:
Steven Gerrard
Javier Mascherano
Lucas
Damien Plessis
Alberto Aquilani
5 Too pick from here so nice bit of depth here and again if you do decide to play the way Liverpool play then you wont really have a CM you will have 2 DM and AMC behind the striker so Lucas & Masch would be in DM and then you would have Gerrard behind the striker and then if you do need back up for gerrard you have Aquliani and same with Lucas and Masch you have Plessis
Attacking Mids:
Steven Gerrard
Yossi Benayoun
Dirk Kuyt
Ryan Babel
Albert Riera
Alberto Aquilani
Again if your going to stick with the Liverpool tactic then you will need 3 attacking mids AMR, AML, AMC So for the attacking mid center your going to pick Gerrard then for the Left & Right i would go for Babel on the left and Kuyt on the right as Babel is fast and will try take the ball round the defenders and try get the ball to the striker and then Kuyt for his hard work and determination he will run up and down the wing all day long with his super Stamina and Natural fitness
Strikers:
Fernando Torres
David N'gog
Andriy Voronin
Ryan Babel
Dirk Kuyt
So your only going to need one striker and i don't really have to go in to great detail who it should be and why cause its going to be Fernando Torres and you will see why when you play him and he bags the goals for you and with Babel & Kuyt on the wings the best back up i would say is N'gog he is a good young striker who could get past the back 4 with his pace not the best in front of goal but would get better in time.
Tactics:
With Liverpool i only ever really play 4-2-3-1 or 4-5-1 and i will give you the Link to a good well great 4-5-1 its JP Woody's one is works great with Liverpool and was made with Liverpool
http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/f72/jp-woodys-first-fm-2010-tactics-t22700.html
Here is one i made using the TTF guide its a 4-2-3-1 for Liverpool and i did use it for a season with them and came 2nd in the league.

Players you could sell:
As you only get a little budget you may need to sell players to raise funds so here is a list of players that i think you could sell and not really miss in the 1st team
Albert Riera
Philipp Degen
Andrea Dossena
David Martin
Peter Gulacsi
I think you would be ok selling them and not really have to replace them.
Well its my first guide so its not the best around so if you feel i should do more for the next one please say.
Thanks
