Really? I thought he did very well for a 17 year old debutant. He was tidy and composed - nothing more nothing less imo - and thats probably the best I would have expected from him. Delighted for him.

What's with 'really?' - think you've misread his post tbh

I think we saw the issue again as Harry just said. We are way too slow.

Having Lucas and Rossiter playing is the same as Lucas and Gerrard really.

Maybe I'm a bit naive and the game would have been too open but I would have preferred to see something like Lallana in Lucas position. It may have been too open but that alone would have made us a lot quicker on the ball for me.

What I've notice over the past few games. We take 2 passes to get the ball where we want it to be. Last year we were doing this in 1 pass.
We kind of got into that rhythm in the second half of ET.

Once we get that sorted out and the new players adapt, we will get back to where we were last year, maybe even better.

Yeah probably wasnt clear in my reply.... Harry was saying he was great. I didnt think so but I wouldnt expect a 17 year old making his debut to be great. As I said.... Tidy and composed.

Rossiter was great for the most part, what struck me was how fast he is to move the ball on, this season possession has been ponderous to say the least but with him (and the U21s generally) first touch is control and second touch is the pass. I reckon if the kids had been sent out last night they'd have won that game in 90 through sheer speed of thought and action.

People complimenting Markovic - all I saw him do was play the simple pass every time. When he did try run with it he was pushed off the ball really easily. I'm not criticising him as it will take him time to settle, just puzzled by how people can see different things when watching a game.

Our playing speed is pedestrian this season.

I think there is nobody showing for the ball or running into space looking for a pass ala Sturridge and Suarez last season. So the player on the ball checks back and passes it back or sideways and still no one seems to be looking for the ball. And it starts all over again.

The shoot out almost becomes hypnotic, esp the way the crowd sounds - yay boo, yay boo, yay boo, etc!

From the first time I seen him that was what impressed me. He is one of those players who always seems to have time on the ball. Like xabi Alonso. He has a long way to go but he could be the perfect player to play the position Gerrard occupies now.

I taught lambert was shocking and really killed the pace of play when we were attacking don't know what BR seem in him don't even think hes good cover. Just because he follows liverpool is no excuse!

I though he was poor last night too but has looked ok in some of the games when he came on. He is capable of playing better than he did last night thats for sure, so I hope he still gets game time in the cups and as an impact sub at times.

I didn't get to watch the match last night but just checked out Rossiters highlight video. 17 year old debutant that looks incredibly composed. Seemed to show for the ball an awful lot, control with both feet, clever passing and a decent strike for the goal. Definitely didn't look out of his depth (admittedly, can't read too much into it from less than 5 minutes of footage)

If he keeps progressing then we should have a real top quality player for the first team on our hands in a couple of years.

Milkers

With Enrique fit it's a pity our two best fullbacks are both lefties.

Lambert had a mare last night.

Suso deserves more game time and not just because he popped up and scored last night.

Chardee MacDennis

is Mignolet the worst no.1 keeper we've had since Westerveld? He just brings nothing to the team, it's bizarre we havent gotten someone else in at this stage.

The way Napoli have started the season Benitez could be gone by Christmas and the first thing I would do then would be straight in with a bid for Higuain even if Rafa doesn't get the sack I still put in a bid.

Sounds familiar with what happened here regards not getting the players he wanted and the club not backing him.

benny79

seems to me Rodgers isn't even looking for a keeper! even last nite peno shoot out he saved 1 out of 15 or there abouts, I know most them were quality, but to me thats not good enough!

I really think he is the weakest link in the team and been are keeper, That isn't good!

I'd walk over hot coals for Valdes or Cech

Mignolet (or Maginot as my brother calls him - for good reason!!!) has the whole team nervous.

DVDM93

This was him at the start of the game last night.

Vicxas

Even Cech would be amazing, hes wasted on the Chelsea bench.

Oranage2

Hang on a minute, wasn't Mig not the second coming of Jesus last season?

What's all this never walk alone, loyalty and the supporters always support the players mantra you sprout here, I say get behind the keeper, it could just be a dip of form and show sosome support!

Vicxas

Theres a dip and from, and then there's this.

Its like the Belgian national team sucked the confidence out of him.
