Alberto Moreno

[Paulie Dangerously]

If he's not pretended to be injured he'd have had the pace to track back yesterday and maybe even prevent a goal.

While I think moreno is poor at defending, I think the issue apart from the ref's decision was that the player who committed the foul was allowed to go all the way from the corner flag into our box and get a virtual free header to score the opener.

Well,this was,in no major due to one of our defenders lying on the ground when no foul was given and not busting a gut to recover his position.

I like his enthusiasm and energy.

 

I hate the fact that he never even attempts to kick the ball with his right foot, which means he is one-dimensional and predictable to play against.  When he cuts back onto his right foot, he won't even attempt a square ball; no, better play it back with my left foot.

 

Riise against Chelsea... it's coming.

 

 

PS  My wife refuses to believe he's not a scouser.  "Oh, he is, look at him!"

[Jairzinho]

Bert Moron.

It was an incredible two way effort on the other players part, credit where its due

There were 10 liverpool players between the eventual scorer and the goal. Let's not kid ourselves it's all because of Moreno.

[LFC 6 Times]

He's fine, really like his attitude. Searing pace is pretty much all fullbacks need these days which he has in spades . His attacking play and final ball need to improve and I'm sure they will.

[Grinch]

Hes filling the void of Glen Johnson well. Mediocre defender that rarely doea much going forward to make up for te factm

God forbid any fullback should also be good at defending nowadays then we'd have a real cracker on our hands.

Haha obviously that would be great but He's an alright defender defender, hasn't been culpable for many goals this season. He's great at winning the ball high up the pitch and would be great in counterattacking team, he won't make the tackles the type of tackles someone like Flanagan will but he never will get dribbled around or beaten for pace.

There could have been 11 but for one doing the 'dying swan' which he has done on more than one occasion.

Hes a bit shit as are a few of those other 10 who were behind the ball.

[Curly]

Shit and annoying. Synonymous traits of most of our squad.

[TheHowieLama]

Dont we always have a bunch of 10's behind the ball?

I think he does make the type of tackles Flanagan makes, in fact his slide tackling is one of the best attributes of his game. It's his positional awareness that's the problem. He gets dragged out of position too easily.

 

He's very similar to Enrique in pretty much every aspect. He's one dimensionally left footed and he's very fast. Carragher would probably remark that he wouldn't want to be in a back four with him because he's a bit of a headless chicken defensively. But offensively he's quite dangerous, especially on the counter attack when he sometimes makes runs like a striker.

[Jose Jones]

That feigning injury for ages at West Ham pissed me off but generally I quite like him. He's a decent passer and good defensively one on one. Needs to improve on end product.

 

Also he's bad defensively on crosses into the box. As he's a short arse he gets beaten in the air easily so needs to be better at reading the ball in so he can body up the man and stop them getting a run at a header. Hopefully that will come with experience.

 

Worth persevering with for me.

[Red Hot]

My take on Moreno, he is a failed winger, converted into a fullback who can't defend. Saying that I would give him one more transfer window to produce. 

[mouse1989]

I'm a fan but I would be delighted If we can somehow upgrade and sign one of Rodriquez or Hector

[Jay86]

I love his enthusiasm more than anything he does on the ball.

 

Hopefully Klopp can sort him out defensively as part of an actual unit, he's got history with wingers or wide midfielders being turned into pretty good full backs

[VladimirIlyich]

Hard to disagree. This is how he looks to me. Maybe because left footed players are at a premium he became a left back by accident?

I remember speaking with one of my lads and we both agreed he was a typical Rodgers signing,overpriced but isnt everybody? But a much better attacking defender than an actual defender!

To be fair Klopp had squeezed a much better defensive performance or three,out of him but he just seems so stupid that he just forgets about this and loses any discipline and goes to shit again!

We used to have so many clever (on field I obviously mean) players at our club while now its hard to find more than one or two at best.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

I think Rodgers favoured Bertrand, but this was one of the supposed horse trading transfers.

 

Either way, I still like him, but he's more of a wingback who needs some kind of cover from midfield when he's caught out of position. With genuine wide players I think a lot of pressure would be lifted off both our fullbacks.

People'll think you've got something against petulant fannies the way you're carrying on.

They're both up for it

Deffo agree about the failed winger analogy. My issue with him is he cant defend. Enrique must seriously have pissed someone off to not get a game. How many times has moreno turned his back on a ball in the box this season or let his man waltz past him in the box for a free shot or header? I make it at least a dozen with 5 directly leading to goals.

 

How many times has he just barged into the man to give away a foul? Fuck me, people whinge about Lucas giving away needless fouls but this lad has made it an art form.

 

Either he cuts it as a born again winger or dont play him as a defender.
