  1. Your front door doesn't catch four times as many crosses as Reina. Begovic commands his area better than any goalkeeper in the PL, and unlike most of the others he catches the ball. He has safe hands as well, never dropping the ball (I saw a statistic up until April; Reina had tried to catch 16 crosses and he dropped the ball 6 times). He's a decent shot stopper as well. He has his faults, of course, but let's not pretend he's without qualities.
  2. He's a winner. He's like Carragher (much more pace though!) in the way that he puts himself about, and he also has a streak of madness. Quality wise he could very well be another Vidic.
  3. This is a great opportunity to get at Gordon Taylor. The new twitter trend should be asking him to resign for the acts of racism shown yesterday. I don't see it as racism, but going from the standard PFA have set there can be no excuses :)
  4. From what I've seen I'd pick Son Heung Min. Haven't seen too much of Aubameyang though. And I don't think Remy is what Liverpool need. He's decent, but he's on a high wage and has a questionable attitude.
  5. The players are not as young as Steve Hunter says, so I don't think there are any 14 year olds in the team. Hunter said that Corey Whelan and Harry Wilson are 14, whilst Sam Hart is 15. Whelan and Wilson are both born in 1997, whilst Sam Hart is born in 1996.
  6. He's had two seasons (10/11 and 12/13) ruined by injury problems. First due to a broken leg, and then due to serious hamstring injury. Two serious injuries, of course, but he got over the first one and it is not a recurring problem. How he'll be affected by the second one is hard to say, but I think he would be worth the risk in a swap for Carroll. What's the alternative? I don't think there are many potential buyers for Carroll, unless the fee is well below £10 million or so.
  7. I agreep. Players such as Wanyama and Capoue (who I rate as a much better player than Sissoko or M'Vila) are just what Liverpool need (and both of them can play in defence as well), alongside at quality defender. There's been talk of signing 2-3 defenders (and 3-4 in total), but I'd prefer something like Wanyama, Capoue and Dede/Douglas/other (I admit I haven't seen too much of Dede or Douglas, so they are more an indication of the type of player (big, strong, athletic) I'd like than actual suggestions)... Add a quality winger, and the side would look very strong again.
  8. I haven't seen much of them, but I've seen them three or four times each (including youth games at international level). Take my views with a pinch of salt, as they are based on very few games over a couple of years (I think the first time I saw Martins Indi was in a U18 game vs. England). Martins Indi has seemed like a more polished version of Chris Mavinga. I don't think he has the stature to play as a central defender in the PL, and I'm not sure he has the attacking qualities I would assume Rodgers is looking for in a full back (really good defender though). De Vrij plays a bit like a right sided Daniel Agger. I know he plays mostly as a central defender now, but he started off as a right full back - where he seemed excellent (both on the ball and as a defender).
  9. You are probably thinking of Jores Okore. He plays in Denmark. Personally I don't know much about him (he was linked to Liverpool a while ago, and I watched a few videoes I found on the Internet, but that was it)....
  10. Skjelbred was an excellent talent, and he was offered a place at the Liverpool academy when he was 16 or so. He got into the first team at Rosenborg quite early, and looked an excellent player (and by far the best talent in Norway for quite some time) until a terrible injury set him back. He'll never fulfill his initial promise, but he could have become a top class PL player...
  11. There is currently no deal in place (confirmed by the Molde CEO). There is however talk in the local newspaper regarding some sort of trial... Personally I don't see the need; Forren is a good player, but I don't see how he'll ever become something more than a backup for Daniel Agger. I don't think he is better than Agger in any aspect of his game. I do think there is a need for an alternative to Skrtel and Agger, but that should be a player with more pace and strength.
  12. Norsk 16-Ã¥ring aktuell for City, Arsenal og Liverpool - TV 2 Sporten The 16 year old midfielder Vajebah Sakor played for Rosenborg in both the games vs. Liverpool in the Nextgen series. He's primarily a central midfielder, but he played the away game on the left. He's currently on loan at Rosenborg (he's owned by Asker) who want to sign him, until 4th of december, but there is confirmed interest from Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool. He's rejected a trial at Sunderland, as well as trials with clubs in Belgium and Holland, and has previously had trials with AC Milan as well as FC Copenhagen.
  13. The past is the past, so if Rodgers think he can turn Ince into a decent player then by all means - buy him. Personally I'm not convinced he has the necessary quality, and I think Suso and Sterling are much better players (I also believe Ibe and Ojo soon will be). I'd much rather see players such as Zaha and Redmond brought in (they have qualities the current squad is a bit short of), although Zaha might be too much of a risk considering the inflated fee he'll probably go for.
  14. Ngoo has been very very good for a long time now, and I think he deserves a chance. His touch let him down a couple of times today, but the Chelsea defenders had no idea on how to stop him. He'll become a top class player.
  15. I've watched a lot of Swansea, and Nathan Dyer is a much better player than Sinclair. The best I've seen from Sinclair was vs. Liverpool at the end of last season, and even then he wasn't that good.
