Enrique expects tough test for Liverpool against FA Cup opponents Stoke

Liverpool fullback Jose Enrique expects a battle against FA Cup opponents Stoke City.

Having been to Wembley once already this season to win the Carling Cup, the club's first trophy for six years, Enrique is keen for a swift return.

"I think everyone enjoyed going to Wembley a lot," said the £6.75million summer signing from Newcastle.

"To win a trophy in my first season here was amazing and we have a big chance to do that again.

"There are two games to play to get to the final and we have a good chance.

"It is difficult to play against Stoke, they are a real English team - they kick the ball all the time to their striker and we have to be careful at throw-ins and corners."
