  1. If we revert to 2CBs, based on current form and ability our best combo would be Skrtel and Sakho...
  2. Agger is overrated defensively here as a fuck. Best footballer out of the 4 CBs, but as a pure defender he is the worst. I have read and watched compilation of12 goals we conceded, that wee purely Aggers fault..with 8 of tem in 2 consecutive months (mid January - mid March). But somehow his big howlers are forgotten in in couple of days and Skrtels small slips are wxxegerated and analyzed for months. Prime example is the Soton goal...Skrtel misjudged te ball that went for a throw in 40yards from goal,,,then Agger makes a schoolboy defending of Lovren, and we conceded.... Couple of weeks went by and people talk still about Skrtels mistake, which could happen to anyone....But nobody speaks about Aggers awful "shadowing", that is made by him for years. In other words, Agger profites when he is not playing, at least in the eyes of the fans.
  3. There is no way Skrtel was culpable for more goals last season than Agger mate.....And regarding set pieces, even people who don´t rate Skrtel have to agree, tahat Danny is responsible for far more set piece goals than Martin is (or was last season).
  4. I agree that Agger is possibly our best CB on paper and on his day....But i can remember last "his day" somewhere in 2007. 07/08 he was warming the bench behind Skrtel/Carra 08/09 he was warming bench behind Skrtel/Carra...bar injuries 09/10 he was carried y Carra 10/11 he was bwhind Soto in Roys packong order and then behind Skrtel/Carra 11/12 he had solid season, but Skrtel ha d season of his life so Danny was carried by 12/13 his worst season, directly culpable for 12 goals between december and March...but Brendan stood by him even if hr was in worst shape I can remember him 13/14....two clean shhets with Kolo, but Kolo was saving his ass throughout the two games + Mignolet ten outperformed by Skrtel who started after six months (credit to Danny he did not make howler against the mancs) ....Then fucked up the Soton goal.... ....And about jis offensive qualities...he had 1 goal assist in last 3 seasons...and his last last "trademark" shot was against Blackburn in april 2009.... So open your eyes fuckers
  5. Lucas probabbly would not start even if jis baby would not be coming out ....Hendo did not deserve to be dropped, and if Glen is ready he will defintely start as wing back...And Hendo played excellent last game in Leivas position, so he shoul stay there. Lucas has too wait, as others....
  6. Link to the Kiessling goal http://sport.aktuality.sk/c/156912/video-zazrak-ci-skandal-gol-kiesslinga-sokoval-cele-nemecko/ awful...
  7. It is not forbidden to holding midfielder to break forward. And Lucas is very very limited and always was. Slow as fuck, can not pass longer than for 10 yards, could not score to save his life, and his 2nd touch is usually forced to be a tackle.... As I wrote in other thread couple of days ago, his only positives were his engine and tackling. But now his engine somehow does not work, or it is because of his positioning, but he is often nowhere near the place where he should be...and his tackles are almost always fouls, and his speciality is to make this clumsy tackles around the penalty box. Good lad, but has had only one good season and tat was 10/11, but even at that time I did not rate him.
  8. I was telling the whole summer that we need some top class midfield enforcer, I even started couple of threads about needing a new CM, preferably defensive one.Stevie is still good player but he is....not top class anymore. He can make a bit of magic, but for the rest of the game he is average...But even in this state he is still good enough to start for us in central midfield.......but.... Not with Lucas. I´ve never rated him, and I think that he had only one good season and it was 2010/2011 an the start of 2011/2012 until he was injured. He was a laughing stock in previous seasons...And after his return from injury he is poor to say it politely with the odd relatively solid game. He is slow as fuck, can not pass longer than 10 yards, wouldn´score a goal to save his life. His only positives were his engine and tackling (but only in seasons mentioned above). N But now he seems to be lazy, or he has awful postioning, but he never seems in te right place, and his tackling is like watching Paul Scholes, almost every tackle from Lucas is a foul and he is giving them almost always in dangerous positions. I like him as a guy, but never rated him as a player, critiicized him for couple of years, then stopped it when he seemed to be the flavour of the month, but even if everybody was singing love songs about him I have never seen the praised quality from him, but stopped to criticize him, because I was usually called a cunt who knows fuck all about footy. But now I can say, that with Lucas as a main Defensive midfielder we are fucked. If Brendan wants to play Stevie as a part of central midfield, then he needs an massive upgrade on Leiva, someone like Essien 3 seasons ago, but not Lucas. He is the second most overrated current LFC player behind Danny Agger, and I woul have Henderson instead of him in his position in an heartbeat
  9. And after final whistle got into brawl with some greeks and got red card... So he can head back to Melwood without playing next game against Latvia :-)
  10. Scored this own goal yesterday against Greece :-) The keeper is Jan Mucha, former Bitter :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4esWKbnNgjY
  11. I read forums every day, but rarely post these days mates.
  12. Glad to see him bounce back and showing that he is great defender. What with him now? Keep, sell, wait?
  13. Toure was by far our best CB until now. He was class in everygame he strated, and is 1st choice without a doubt. Skrtel was also excellent against Scum and Swans, and really solid against Soton (bar that one brain fart)...so probably he shoul be the other one starting... But...Martin is the way back for Brendan, Sakho the way forward, and Agger vice-captain,who is in very bad form for almost half a season now, but seems undroppable in Brendan´s eyes, as was proved when he was awful between December and March. So I think BR will usually go with Toure - Agger, with Skrtel behind Toure, and Sakho behind Agger. Even if their rating based on current form is 1.Toure 2. Skrtel 3. Sakho 4.Agger
  14. Luis Felipe Scolari and Gene Hackman Michael Scofield from Prison break and Skrtel Fabio Borini and Joe Allen ;)
  15. Skrtel wont play, according to Brendan. Rodgers on Borini, County & transfers - Liverpool FC Any injury news? Martin Skrtel will hopefully be fit by the weekend. Martin returned to training with the team in the last couple of days. He's looking very strong at the moment, it's just too early to put him in. He'll need a bit longer in training with the team. He'll probably just miss out tomorrow but certainly should be ready by the weekend. There are no fresh injury worries.
  16. Report: Martin Skrtel set for £1.7m Napoli loan move with £8.6m option to buy - Liverpool FC This Is Anfield - Liverpool FC This Is Anfield Reports in Italy this afternoon (Thursday) suggest Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel is nearing a season long loan-move to Napoli, with a €10million option to make the deal permanent at the end of 2013/14. Calciospot24.it report that Sportmediaset say Skrtel will complete the move in the next few days. Skrtel looks to be following goalkeeper Pepe Reina, who swapped Anfield for the Serie A club earlier this week. Former Reds boss Rafa Benitez has been linked with bringing Skrtel to the South Italy side for some time. The Slovakian international defender fell out of favour with Reds boss Brendan Rodgers last season, starting just four League games since the turn of the year. Veteran defender Jamie Carragher was preferred to Skrtel to partner Daniel Agger in the Reds’ central defence, before his retirement at the end of the season. Skrtel has made 206 appearances for Liverpool since signing from Zenit St Petersburg in January 2008, scoring 9 times. Should Skrtel complete the move, as we proved yesterday, Liverpool will have slashed a massive £500,000 off their weekly wage bill. Rodgers will surely make a new central defender his priority in the transfer market, with speculation increasing on a move for Schalke’s Kyriakos Papadopolous . Liverpool signed up Ivorian international defender Kolo Toure on a free transfer from Manchester City earlier this summer, but the 32-year-old is expected to be used as back-up to Agger and a younger central defensive partner. Is Skrtel on 100+ weekly?
  17. I remember it mate. I also watched Papa last summer during the Euros, but not seen Schalke or him since then so I don´t comment on him. And as I´ve heard, he did not play much games during that time....
  18. Skrtel was in the news here in Slovakia few minutes ago, there was a live phone call with him asking only about this (Napoli)transfer and he said that he does not know anything about move to Italy, that nobody from Napoli or LFC talked to him about this possibility, nor transfer or loan. he said he only read it at the internet. so it´s bullshit or the club are doing Reina again. And to Papa is better than Skrtel...I don´t say he is not, but I would like to know how many of the people on here singing songs about how much of an upgrade on Skrtel he is have actully seen Papadopoulous play for more than 180 minutes altogether.
  19. Kolo has awful aerial stats from past season, which is probably his biggest weakness so regarding Skrtel leaves (as probably our best CB in air) we need Papadopoulos or someone dominant in the air, because that was our biggest weakness in Carra - Agger combo, and Kolo is not an upgrade on Carra aerially, maybe even worse. Btw. Skrtel will leave for surely if any accptable offer comes. He declared for slovak newspapers last week that he decided that he wants to stay in Liverpool, fight for his place and get beack to first team. Brendan actually said to all CBs that all of them have the same chance to start and will get the same portion of minutes in pre season, to challenge for the spots. I think it was just a diplomatic phrase with starting Danny with Kolo in every game until now, and Martin with Wisdom, so if Skrtel is not totally dumb he must be aware now, that he is not 1st or 2nd choice, as he was under Rafa,Woy, or Kenny, and will get to start only in case of injuries, suspensions, or if Kolo will be a mare signing (as Agger seems untouchable for BR, even if he played awful since january until april).
  20. It was ment like a joke mate. I support LFC for 20 years mate, the fact tha Skrtel joined the club was just a little bonus for me.
