I'd take that team but ideally Firmino (instead of Brannagan) up top with origi in a 4:4:2 as i don't see bournemouth parking the bus, so let's try and get him a much needed goal and some confidence - likewise Origi. I dont rate ethier player but i feel our next few games may well depend on their contribution.

For what reason dont you rate firmino?

The one player mentioned above who I now don't think makes the grade is Joe Allen. I would never challenge his commitment, I've supported him since the day Brendan signed him from Swansea. He's quoted as having a higher pass rate than Iniesta. But, having seen his recent games, has anyone else seen him make a defence-splitting, goal-winning pass forward? Ever?

I stand corrected. Any others in the past three years?

Thing is Allen is being shown up technically by Texeira and Brannagan tonight.

It was dim of Rodgers to buy Allen and Borini, and also trying for Sigurdsson.
I don't think he realised the magnitude of the club, with his "I can do it all myself" vibe.

Hmmm Allen is a good player to have when you have heavy injuries, but so are a lot of the youth players tbf
