Agree on Markovic, he hasn't shown any glimpses of the alleged potential

He has a lot less pace than I thought he would for a winger/wide forward. Never saw him play that much for Benfica but everything I heard about him suggested he was fast and a good dribbler who liked to attack defenders. There was several times last night he was outpaced in a one on one with a defender.

Markovic has looked and played like a player worried about picking up another injury so soon after coming back. Pretty sure when he gains full fitness and a bit of confidence he'll start impressing people.
Bit silly for people who admit themselves to hardly seeing any of him before this season to start judging him after a couple of games where the entire team is playing like ****e.

It be cool if drew Hypia's Brighton at Anfield in the next round.

If not, I'd like to get Chelsea or City

Fourth round of the League Cup.

Bring on Swansea City in Anfield.

Well, at least we avoided the Dons!

When is the draw for the next round?

Right now I guess.

A home fixture v Swansea it is in the 4th round. Rodgers to face his old club and Shelvey to face his. Ties to be played October 28/29. Delighted to have avoided MK Dons.

8-10

Happy it's a home tie

What's the big fear with MK Dons? They could only put 4 past United.

It's not that I've something against Markovic, I just feel Suso hasn't been given a fair shot.

Two years ago he played a few games and did pretty well. Then he went on loan and by all accounts did well there too. Comes back and has a decent pre season and that's it.

Judging on last nights performance, he's still well able to come off the bench and look comfortable in a match. It was against Boro so I'm not saying he's a world beater but he should be considered for further involvement in the first team.

Suso by all accounts is off to milan already so i guess the club and rodgers think why should we give a player who's leaving soon game time over a new player just in the door who himself needs game time? Markovic played a huge part in a treble winning benfica team, suso played for a team struggling for survival last season, a 20 minute cameo against middlesborough doesn't suddenly make him instantly better and he should demand game time all of a sudden. I personally would have love to see suso play more for us but im as excited by markovic playing just as much.

To be fair United are a lot better than Liverpool. Di Maria, Falcao, Shaw, Herrera, Rojo... all on top of what they had already; Rooney, RVP, Mata.

There's no competing. They were 3-1 up against Leicester on Sunday and I was so sickened I had to turn it off. What did they win by the end now that I've calmed down?!

Finished 8-1, Giggsey came on and scored a hatrick ... cakewalk.

Maybe the reason he's off is because he's been told he won't have much game time?

No one is calling for the team to be set up around him. Just to have him on the bench or starting a match sometime to see what he can actually do. It wasn't long ago we were all thinking of Suso and Sterling shining for Liverpool.

Can't say I'm surprised with that level of fire power. No disrespect to Leicester.

Just wait till he's fully fit and gaining confidence - he is absolutely lightning!

I think it was his first pre season where he took the ball and shot off like lightning. Was some sight.

Looking forward to seeing that more

Markovic is not long back from hamstring injury. I'm guessing he is being tentative with showing his pace etc.
I saw a stat where he is officialy the fastest u21 player with max speed at 36.6kmh , faster that (Robben, Rooney, Ribery, Lennon, wallcot, etc)

I think some are being a bit harsh on Sturridge, even by not mentioning his name.

Suarez was never going to be replaced like for like but Sturridge is a massive loss to us also and is being underestimated in the Suarez talk.

Sure, but Sturridge is likely to have a couple of absences like this a year imo. If this is the result of such absences...

Everton on a poor run of form, Liverpool on a poor run of form.

The match could kick start either teams season.
