Why spend that wages for bench warmers?

Because we should be aiming to have as strong a team/squad as possible

For a team that has 5 players in that have played less than 30 games for Liverpool including a back 4 playing together for the first time and a striker who is probably 3 weeks behind on fitness levels I think that has been quiet a good first half and looks very promising for the season to come.

Gerrard and Allen look out of place for me pace wise.

Sakho and Lovren will grow as they get used to playing with each other.

Manquillo looks like he will be a card magnet but he and Moerno look very bright.

Washington Irving · 31-08-2014 02:25PM

Not too concerned long term about Lovren-Sakho. It's their first game together, understanding will come in time (plus they have a common language in French so communication shouldn't be an issue). Just hope another lapse isn't punished by Spurs this half

Getting those two off the books is a step in that direction.

Reina went to a club knowing full well his game time will be next to non existent, shows how much ambition he has and interest in resurrecting his career. But that debate is for another time.

SuperTortoise · 31-08-2014 02:30PM

Allen done nothing so far, i'm still amazed at how good sturridge is with the ball at his feet for a big guy.

Solid enough first half, hope we don't sit back we should be looking to kill the game off early.

Sturridge is 5'10/11.

He's not a big guy.

martyos121 · 31-08-2014 02:35PM

Not letting Mario take the peno is a waste IMO. Good spot kick from Gerrard though.

He's 6'2

No he isn't.

Baloteli is 6'2, he is way bigger than Sturridge.

Ahem! You will find that we are currently wining a match and that there is a serious risk of us actually winning it. You shouldn't be posting here.

Raif Severance · 31-08-2014 02:44PM

Sakho needs to Wake Up.

That's the 2nd Time he Passed the Ball straight towards a Spurs Player, only a few feet ahead of him.

wiki has him at 1.88m which is ~6'2, anyways...

Soft peno but i'll take it:)

jesus_thats_gre · 31-08-2014 02:45PM

He is quickly looking like a major concern. Paying 20m or so for him and just releasing Agger is starting to ****ing irk me too.

Sturridge in 183cm according the Liverpool official site, which is pretty much exactly 6'. Ballotelli in 188cm, which is 6'2".

martyos121 · 31-08-2014 02:47PM

I like this Moreno kid.

SuperTortoise · 31-08-2014 02:47PM

Moreno! Welcome, great goal

There's a match thread set up guys, please keep discussion of the match in there

Vicxas · 31-08-2014 02:48PM

Moreno.

Guy love right now

Wiki is wrong.

What do your eyes think?

Does Sturridge look the same height as Henry, Drogba, Baloteli etc.

With Drogba and Luiz here, both 6'2 .

Much smaller

Where do we fit Lallana and Coutinho? :P So many options, I'm loving it. Not since the glory years have we had depth like this.

I've been thinking about it, and I think Ben signs off his posts because he had the lack of foresight to call himself, "BenThere", instead of "BenHere", and he's terrified we might be looking at the wrong poster and thinking, "That's the Ben that fella was on about".

The internet is never wrong...repeat never!

And yes in my eyes he's a fairly big lad, i certainly would'nt call anyone that's 6'+ small.

Vicxas · 31-08-2014 03:00PM

People seem to be ignoring Sturridge.

Yes, but he's not 6'+

Not even 6 feet imo

But in fairness Luiz hair adds about 3ft on it's own.
