New Liverpool FC manager Roy Hodgson is looking forward to start his Liverpool career with a win by calling his senior players into action for Europa League game with FK Rabotnicki on Thursday.

Roy Hodgson made the decision despite his medical staff team believe that the player who were on duty in South Africa, such as Steven Gerrard, Jamie Carragher and Joe Cole, are not yet ready to play in Mecedonia.

Roy Hodgson said: “I don’t know what to do at this stage. I will have to liaise with them and (head of sports science) Peter Brukner and make a decision by Tuesday on what sort of team I can put out.”

“I can promise the Liverpool fans we will put out the best possible team, without compromising the future. It is going to be a difficult discussion between myself and Peter because his feeling is we shouldn’t use any of them and I am going to be tempted to say I want to use quite a few of them”.

Hodgson continued: “The only players I will take will be the ones that I definitely think will play a valuable part in the game. If we are talking about senior players, it would be players prepared to start the game. I would not take Steven Gerrard there to play for the last 10 minutes as a substitute”.
