How boss is Martin Skrtel.

[LFC 6 Times]

The lads been absolutely marvelous since Kenny took over. There are still fans who don't rate him at all, but in reality there's very few centre backs out there who are superior to Martin. His heading has improved a huge amount in the last year, his tackling is usually superb, never see him outmuscled or bullied by the opposition strikers. Most of all his recovery pace is top drawer it is essential for us to continue playing this high line which allows us dominate so many games.

Well in Martin lad.

[LFC 6 Times]

The partnership of Agger and Skrtel, could potentially become as good as the Vidic and Ferdinand pairing. Where Skrtel actively looks to win the ball early and Agger is the more composed and cleans up loose balls and plays the ball out early.

[usernameunknown]

Very boss. Him and Agger are brilliant. Miles and miles our best 2 out of the 3 seniors.

[Guest LFD]

He is playing very well, as is Agger.

 

I have also been impressed with his heading lately, he has looked very dominant in that area and that was one of the major criticisms of him.

 

Very underated.

[The Dude Abides]

Carra is better.

 

Derp!!

[G Richards]

He is doing well and the partnership with Agger looks very good. I'm very pleased with the defence at the moment.

[Deepz]

Shocking when played out of position at Spurs, but an absolute tank at center back since then, top class.

Agreed. We have many things not working as well as it might elsewhere on the pitch, but the defence are all doing very well.

 

Tight, mean, and conceding few goals. Great platform for Kenny and Clarke to build on. Now we just need to buy someone who is good at scoring goals.

[xerxes]

In combination with Agger about the best central defensive partnership in the Prem - lets hope that Agger does not pick up an injury.

[stringvest]

Skrtel and Agger are both playing very well and are being selected on merit. Skrtel in particular seems to have largely eliminated the lapses in concentration and poor decision making from his game. This reflects well on him and on the coaching staff.

[Gym Beglin]

If Skrtel had half the self confidence as Carragher then he'd be a brilliant centre back.

He already is one.

[MLB]

Skrtel has probably been the second best centre half in the league this season, after Vermaelen.

[silverlining]

Vermaelen has hardly fucking played this season, and Kompany has been the best CB in the league by a mile.

[Byrnie]

Vermaelen has hardly fucking played this season, and Kompany has been the best CB in the league by a mile.

 

This. Kompany probably is the best centre half in the league altogether.

 

Skrtel has been excellent lately, as LFD said, he's been very dominant in the air lately and has been timing his jumps better and not making any silly attempts to win the ball. Going to be hard for Carra to force his way back, if Agger stays fit.

[benite]

The only thing that worried me about him was the amount of free kicks he gave away, in and around the box. they were allways unnecessary and i think it was down to a confidence thing with him.

 

But he's been outstanding sinse he came in for Carra.

 

Best ive seen him sinse he got that knee/ankle injury in the 08/09 season away at city. He had a great start to the season that year as well.

 

Hope he keeps it going

[PaulMcC]

He's playing well. Our defence is looking a lot better.

[Captain]

Skrtel has probably been the second best centre half in the league this season, after Vermaelen.

 

Spoken like Abs.

[Faustus]

He's playing very well. I suppose the biggest compliment you could give him and the rest of the lads in the back four is that the defence picks itself these days.

[TheHowieLama]

Helps him to have a quality left side along the back for the first time since he got here, but someone compared Coates to Hyypia the other day so I would say he is probably the greatest central defender in history.

The King has worked wonder but Skrtel's improved form is down to Clark and Keen imo.

[lifetime fan]

Vermaelen has hardly fucking played this season, and Kompany has been the best CB in the league by a mile.

 

And yet he was ropey as fuck the last couple of times shitty were on the telly.

You're wrong, but I admire your conviction.

 

 

(Actually I don't)

Yeah I was reading a City forum before our game and they were all saying they love him because of last season but he's been very shakey this season.

[TheHowieLama]

I'd have Vermaelen as a striker before Carroll at the moment. That fellers pretty good in the air and on the deck.
