The dangerous-ness of a tackle is not proportional to the number of legs involved. It wasn't high, he got a bit of the ball and his second leg just followed through.

Because he is not terrible.

His physique coupled with his excellent close control means he has great potential. But he is very raw still. Would like to see him going to maybe League 1 for a few months

When he is good he is very good but seems to be one of those strikers for whom its either a going day or not.

Sterling is full of quality but I could see him getting flattened in a first team game. Needs to visit the gym and the pool.

Much much the better side. Hopefully we don't regret all these missed chances.

One of our best performances in a while. Come on the reds.

I get emotional watching these lads, i feel like a proud parent.

Liverpool the better team so far imo, but not a lot in it so far. Excellent pace to the game so far, pretty entertaining.

His physique seems to be what sets him apart at this level, not sure it will be even when he moves on. Too me his first touch, control, passing and shooting look well below the standard.

He has lovely skill.

It's just that his legs work independently of the rest of him
