    I find it bizarre that he's dropped Lallana and put Markovic in.

    Not dropped...rotated

    I hope Markovic has been eating a **** load of pies since the weekend.

    Toure on the bench ahead of Sakho again is pure nonsense.

    Sakho has a thigh strain.

    How far away is Can or Allen from a start. Gerrard suffering in mf and surely not right for 2 starts this week. Worrisome.

    Maybe Rodgers is hoping Gerrard will do a Rooney (foolish red card )or pick up a knock from playing every minute of every game so he doesn't have to be the man who drops Gerrard.

    Maybe he should just grow a pair.

    Performances would suggest he doesn't.

    Is the game being televised on RTÉ 1/2 or TV3 tonight? If any?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    RTE 2

    Carra " Lucas is probably slower than Steven Gerrard. That's why Henderson is so vital"

    Well we all know Carragher doesn't nor never has rated Lucas.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    Neville, Carragher and Souness giving Balotelli a huge amount of stick.

    Here comes the Gerrard love in.

    Just had to correct you on this Rushie!
    'Luis Suarez has come in and done great things for the club but Lucas has been his equal in many ways.

    'He has been as good as anyone in the team this season and there is no question he will be a big miss.'

    'I have been there in terms of receiving criticism,' said Carragher. 'High standards are expected when you play for one of the big clubs and there are plenty examples of players who have gone missing after realising the demands on them.

    'But you can tell Lucas is a top player as he never lets that bother him. He has just got on with it and plays in nearly every game. If he has a little knock, he will always try and carry on, doing his best for us. There are lots of different characters but you can't fault Lucas.'

    Serious managers take the big decisions, if Gerrard was playing for Ferguson's Utd sides when Ferguson was at his peak he'd have been dropped for his recent performances.

    The core of the team is not solid or stable as a result of his below par showing recently.

    Not sure I agree with that....Ferguson had an awful habit of playing players off form or aging at silly times and losing points as a result. Especially G Neville and Giggs.

    I recall Keane saying not too long ago that loyalty was one of Ferguson's biggest failings in this sense.

    Game is there for either team to win tbh


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,419 ✭✭✭Fescue


    Markovic looks much better, certainly the best of the attacking midfielders. Balotelli has been pretty good.

    Gerrard and Henderson look all at sea at times.

    The team is crying out for a real midfield enforcer. Someone to break things up.

    Mignolet to me just creates so much uncertainty in our defence.

    Bollox Ferguson played an aging giggs in not one but two champions league final and was absolutely outplayed.

    Haha oh ffs skrtel there rather having a wrestling match in the box than defend.


  • Posts: 45,738 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Rodgers style getting found out a bit in the CL by a very ordinary team tbh


  • Posts: 45,738 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Also, Martin Skrtel our best defender ....
