Stars back for Liverpool

Liverpool will have all their star players back for tomorrow’s Premier League game at West Ham.

Skipper Steven Gerrard, Jose Reina, Jamie Carragher, Fernando Torres and Xabi Alonso were all out of the starting line-up for Saturday’s FA Cup win over Havant & Waterlooville. Reina and Alonso were not even in the squad.

But with Andriy Voronin and Daniel Agger the only long-term absentees, boss Rafael Benitez will field a far stronger side than he did against the minnows from the Blue Square Southern Conference.

Provisional squad: Reina, Finnan, Arbeloa, Carragher, Hyypia, Skrtel, Riise, Aurelio, Pennant, Babel, Alonso, Benayoun, Gerrard, Mascherano, Kuyt, Torres, Crouch, Kewell, Itandje.
