Another 8 tackles for manquillo tonight, averaging like 5 a game
Manq looks like a good player, hopefully we can have a settled defence soon..manq..sakho..lovren..moreno we be ok.
Sakhos a liability. Rather have Skrtel and Lovren in there. Won't be surprised to see Johnson get back in once for. But in all honesty it's the keeper that is the biggest issue. No leadership. No command of his area or back 4
Dont rate keeper or cant close my legs sakho. I like manquillo. Lallana is starting to look the part.
Negatives is sterling must be knacjered for everton game.
positive is everton defensively are bad if not worse than us
Sterling knackered?? Not a chance, hes only 19/20! When i was that age i could play two games in a day!! no bother..sterlings got 3 days to recover, thats plenty for him.
Markovic looks like he has no confidence atm
Yeah gb but rodgers logic he will rest hom saying he needs protecting lol.
On markovic, i just think hes on one of those that will take time to settle. Hes not had a run of games yet, give the lad time.
On sat id play Lallana, Sterling and hopefully studge is fit if thats the case we should start to play a bit more
Markovic looks like he's been told to keep it simple and keep possession.
Maybe he hasn't bee given the orders but that is what it looks like to me. He does a very good job of it but I want to see him actually try and beat a fullback.

Agree with that.
I hadn't watched him play when we brought him but from what I read I thought we'd be getting an exciting, possibly even maverick, attacking talent. So far I've seen a lad trying to play it safe.
He's young and its a new league but I'm hoping he at least tries to play with freedom and flair in attack. I'm hopefully that will come as confidence grows.
Your older than Sterling? I always thought you would be about the same age.
Also I might me wrong but pretty hopeful I'm not. Were your games more Sunday league /5 a side type stuff?
I mean sterling is kinda playing at the highest level.
Markovic was very good both legs against us in the Europa League last year. I think he'll do well for Liverpool. Probably takes more adapting from the Portuguese league to be fair.

Poor again. Manq no way i rather have Johnson or Flanagan asap. This is a real test of BR qualities interesting What someone else said bout the buys not enough good ones. If im honest i rather Origi stay here this season in expense of Balo.

I agree Johnson should play instead and that he has been overhyped after some average games but I saw some signs last night that I hadn't seen before that he could be a good player in future.
I CANNOT believe he changed the CB's again. I know I don't know about knocks and niggles but FFS!
Man loves his blind first time early crosses doesnt he
I also think we're missing Johnson - as hard as that is to believe for some

Agreed still unsure with Man.
Anyone else think Lucas had a good game?
Thought he was very solid last night, best I've seen from him in a long time.
Lucas was ok - nothing special
The problem is that we need more than ok. I'd hate to think that Lucas becomes flavour of the month after one league cup tie against Borough.
The defence has taken the bulk of criticism but the midfield is putting huge pressure on them with their inability to track runners.
The other day we had Henderson, Gerrard and Lucas and all 3 were chasing shadows.
Just saying it was nice to see him put in a decent performance for once.
Agree with the problems in midfield and seems like it will be a while before we see Can & Allen. Was disappointed that we didn't put a bid for Song and after seeing him play Saturday even more so. We really miss a player like that who can break up the play and be that comfortable in possession.
It's hard to work Manq out. At times he can look brilliant and at times very average but he's young and has done much better than expected.
The call's for a Johnson return have short memories. Remember his slow and lethargic forward play, tame passing and mediocre crossing? I've not even talked about his defending either.
I thought Enrique played well last night(except losing his man for the first goal). I forgot how strong he was and he was a major part in the build up for Suso's goal. Pity its between him and Moreno but he is a great back up to have.
