    And yet we got zero shoot until lambert came in.

    We have a few scare because Allen is out of position.

    you really dun like Allen hor

    yeah lor..

    don't know why.. the more I see him.. the more I don't like him...

    don't think he is up to the standard. better than Charlie adam but still....

    if die die gerard cannot b dropped, the obviously lucas must not b his partner. was hoping to see emre. i think he should b a better partner. still fast n energetic, with him n henderson in the middle is definitely a better bet.�

    so far, for middle 3, my choice would b as above. of cos if can replace gerrard is better. but front 3 is the headache part. sterling n sturridge for now is the auto pick. but who will b the other 1 when markovic n llalana are available? coutinho is blwing hot n cold. should h b dropped? if yes...to b replaced by llalana or markovic?�

    think we dun have to be so concerned...

    Southampton was one of the teams that really troubled us last season....
    maybe a more mobile and tenacious midfield trio playing more probing passes will do it against Southampton....

    Southampton also lucky that DS and RS both bobo shooter last night

    yeah lor..

    i really dun see why we bought him for that sum... but i also dun see why JH was bought at that price initially ;p

    imho, playing gerrard in creative DM means all others have to compromise their normal games...

    go back and watch few seasons back... lucas was in all the current gerrard position, recycling the ball

    go back last season before lucas got injured again... JA was in all the current gerrard position redistributing the ball

    Since Gerrard play in that role, all our other mf need to adjust their games... even coutihno become more aggressive aka no 8 instead of no 10 ;p

    Did I copy and paste this post from last year? Anyway many of our posts here look so familiar. Hahahaha

    lets focus on the positives..

    Mignolet coming to the rescue to block a few shots... though he has to improve on his coming out

    Lovren and Skrtel pairing seemed promising........ was hoping to see us transit into 3 CBs instead of hvg SG play acting as 3rd CB

    Manquillo need to stick closer to his man else he played well for a young player.... �with good ball control

    johnson was lively but ineffective.... �waiting for Moreno or Enrique to start the against Man C�

    SG... nuff said.... his biggest problem is his age and side effects of aging... cant blame him since BR was the one who picked the team....

    Lucas showed some good touches though a bit redundant playing CB with SG.... should sell while he has value and buy a young DM..... Lucas has served us well... we should not let him be 4th choice or 5th choice CM....

    JH was lively and showed us his passing skills.... faded in second half... probably being told to stick around in the middle... to allow Allen more freedom higher up... we all know JH's value after our 3-2 win against Man C last season...

    Allen... did help to move the ball higher up on the pitch... but he seemed to be allergic to penalty box...�

    Coutinho did not see enough of the ball..... tried dropping deep but maybe still suffer from world cup cold turkey.. lets hope he turn it on against Man C

    Sterling seemed to suffer from post-worldcup-trauma... well taken goal....could hv destroyed southampton defence if he was as good as the end of last season....

    Sturridge... scores despite hving one of the lousiest games i hv seen him playing...

    other than the goal... i only remember him making too many touches on the flanks.....�

    Another good news is our bench looks stronger and IS stronger...

    We still have Markovic and Lallana coming back from injury...�

    Lallana will strengthen the first team as he has played in BPL before...�

    Team also not fully fit due to many players on world cup duties....

    To play the high tempo game... our players need to regain their match fitness fast...

    yeah... if you notice, when ever gerrard change his position a lot of player become redundant because they need to adjust to him.

    worse he change role like once every 2 years???

    Can already didn't play on Saturday, when Lallana come back how? Even more no chance? Who will be the middle 4 (assuming front 2 is SAS v 2.0)?

    We have a week of rest and recovery :)

    esp for old legs like SG...

    Can we get at least a draw (2-2) just like we have draw�Man C�in US tour?

    I am worried abt our midfielders, they are almost non-existent, neither defending nor helping in attack...

    Hope we can see a better Couthino, a better reliable SG, and do get a replacement for Lucas, cos he was headless in the match...

    gerrard, henderson & allen/can/lucas VS yaya, fernando n fernandinho. on paper....no fight. let's see how they fare on the pitch.


    abt the defence, i hope rodgers instructed skrtel to listen to lovren. i believe lovren can command the box a lot better than skrtel, who has no leadership qualities at all.�

    I am not an expert...

    But I would like to think that BR decides his formation on how to play from the back... he has chosen back 4 as a base... he always want an energetic midfield which I think JH is an automatic starter... the other CM will be either Can, Allen, SG, Lucas or Lallana. His playmaker can be deep (eg SG) or higher up in CAM position (Coutinho or Sterling)
    That will decide whether we go 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1. Sometimes, he die die wan to strangle opponent midfield... he go for Diamond....

    Both Can and Lallana can play alongside JH in a 4-3-3 or in a more advanced role in 4-2-3-1.
    Can can play deep in SG role and Lallana can join front 3.
    Can's arrival certainly allow Lucas to go on the transfer list.

    I think Skrtel is a liability. His positioning is suspectable. I don't rate him really. He is a fighter yes but he is clumsy as well. Good thing his looks mask his clumsy ways especially when defending crosses. He is really a poor man's version of Vidic. With all that said, I think Liverpool bought well in Lovren. He is going to be the heart of the defence. Hope to see him partner Sakho in the next game.�

    What do you think of the new signings?

    only two player from new signing had played in sunday match.

    I must admit, I am impress.

    first on the defender, he is excellent going forward. need a bit of adjusting to BPL and BR way of defending though. but see great potential in him.

    for lambert.. what more can I say. he come in, everyone go guard him. Sterling steal a header for DS to score.. need we say more.. this is what we had been talking about whole of last season. we need a plan B.. and lambert is our plan B... \

    the rest, lets wait till we see them play real competitive games before I can comment. (yes, I don't rate ppl for friendly.. just look at England always look impressive in friendly.. but in actual competition where result matters, they hardly achieve much)

    Hopefully with Lovren, Skrtel will continue his good form.... I like Sakho but many pple think otherwise.
    Honestly, I think our CBs still getting used to our midfield... in the past, we always have two holding midfielders.... nowadays only have one SG or one Lucas...
    If our midfield is tight enough... CBs will have less to worry about.... suspect BR more or less decided on the pairing in defence... only have Skrtel or Sakho to choose from.. how BR selech the shape n players for our midfield will be crucial

    actually I am not that worry about us conceding a goal cause the backline is new... MF and DF need time to gel and understand each other.

    I think Sturridge must be relieved when the Lambert came on. Whenever he got possesion of the ball, every defender were instantaneously converging onto him; �it was obvious that he was missing Suarez who had been "drawing" them away in the past. �

    At that point not much space to position yourself liao. Defenders within the penalty area. Lucas and Stevie G were just outside the box. If the midfield don't track the run, the DC is always going to look bad.

    You should see the replay of the first goal and see where Skrtel was standing. He was too close to Lovren and providing a gaping hole for Cyle to run through. He couldn't make up enough ground when Cyle muscled his way into the box. He should have move in closer to GJ position when GJ was challenging Cyle but instead he chose to ball watch and position himself nearer to Lovren who is shadowing another player. For a central defender, that is a glaring mistake which should not have happened in the first place.�

    was the instruction to DM that when defending and the player run too far in to a certain point, they suppose to stop and let the CB take over so as to maintain a basic defence shape?? or was it Lucas decided to stop following by himself?

    but he must be deployed correctly. shut the space where Silva and Nasri roam and the space toure burst into.... Pure DM, water carrier. no surge upfield, no hollywood passes.�

    we play gerrard in his quarterback role without 2 sidekicks, we will get over run within 20 mins

    Henderson will start, Gerrard will start, choose 2/3 of Lucas, Allen, Coutihno, i believe BR will not risk Can from the start for the shitty match.

    Sterling and Sturridge to start upfront

    As a CB, he should have a better overall view from below. And one of the best trait of a CB is positioning and decision making. No matter what instruction was passed to him from the manager, eventually he has to execute depending on the situation.

    Henderson will start, Gerrard will start, choose 2/3 of Lucas, Allen, Coutihno, i believe BR will not risk Can from the start for the shitty match.

    Sterling and Sturridge to start upfront

    from a tactical point, it is impt we do not lose this match

    After watching both Red and City's first matches, I'ld probably put my $$$ on the latter.�

    its something BR does not advocate and practice based on his lineup selection...

    against the top team, we need to keep it tight... take the chances that come our way

    as long as do not lose these 6 pointers, the gap should be small enuf to maintain motivation of the players as the season progress.

    he's a powder keg lah.�

    Easily wound up player both by supporters and opposing players. Though he's not really violent.�Always getting stupid yellow cards for all kinds of reasons.�

    He has the pedigree but not the mentality to be world class.�

    I mean sub 20mil pounds i don't mind compared to spending money on lavezzi. But really gambling on him to come good.

    I am sure if BR can handle liu S. shouldn't be big problem. The only down size is we might be playing with a man short on more occasion. Well if our strikers can bang in goals and we have shore up our defence than M.B is risk we can take.

    If Mario is 1/2 good of LS, yet we only paid �16 mil, which is 20% of LS price, we got ourselves a good deal leh :)

    He might change his characters when he put on Pool shirt ... [sly]

    If he is a proven deadly striker with his time in Pool, by the next 2 year, he will be valued around�$70 million pounds or more at the age of 26. I think he wanted that so that he could move to RM, PSG�or Barca. Other BPL clubs had not given him that chance and I don't think he would want to waste this time round with a 2nd chance given to him at Pool.

    Lets hope he can get us (Pool) 20+ goals (BPL matches only)�in his first season and we will be in the top 4 this season.� [smash]

    The type of goals is not really important. If a player can score 31 headers also ok for me.

    Not to mention I doubt MB will have anything near LS' assist rate. So not only he scores, he creates too.

    But anyway, I guess have MB better than nothing. And he is pretty cheap (his discipline issues probably factored in) especially in today's market. Maybe 2 years later we can got 60M for him as he is still pretty young also.

    Signing Balotelli is 'the worst thing for Liverpool', claims ex-Arsenal midfielder

    Former Arsenal midfielder and now-ESPN pundit Stewart Robson has delivered a damning verdict on Liverpool�s potential signing of Mario Balotelli, stressing that the striker is too ill-disciplined and unreliable for the club.

    �I�ve seen him play many, many times and, while he�s a good player, he�s just not an outstanding one,� he told ESPN.

    Not many people know who Stewart Robson is and those that have seen him play will also say he

    is good but not outstanding.

    And we will say "You Will Never Walk Alone" :))

    JA 15M

    Borini 10M

    Aspas 7M

    Alberto 8M

    The 4 above are criminal.... probably Allen marginal..

    I believe Assaidi was not BR choice, that y nvr play.

    JA not too bad, he is young and can improve.

    Borini can sell for 14 mil so maybe can get 3.5 mil profit.

    Aspas not suited to BPL only La Liga

    Alberto still young and maybe got potential.

    :D

    why not ? I think we are still hoping (super duper slim) :D� for Falcao to say yes. If not strike force of Sturridge, Balo, Lambert and Eto ain't too shabby� ^_^

    Falcao would be orgasm lah�
