Wondering what the general opinion on this is. If I had to make a long term choice between the two Id go with Agger. Mainly because he used to get the odd goal and was comfortable with the ball. He also made a nuisance of himself attacking corners.
I think an Agger/Skrtel pairing at centre back could be very good indeed, but that would require the unthinkable axeing of Carra. He's said himself he hasnt got the legs to play full back anymore, which is a big shame as it would be great to accomodate all three.
It would be a brave decision by Rafa, but I think rather than lose Agger in the summer, Id be looking at giving Agger/Skrtel a go from the off next season. Carra could then provide the quality cover and passion when its needed. It would be a big decision but my gut feeling is Carra cant play many more seasons with such intensity whereas Agger could develop a great pairing with Skrtel for many years to come. It may also lengthen Carra's career, but knowing Carra he'd tell me, Rafa and anyone else with this opinion to fuck right off! :smile::smile:
