KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Shelvey recalled from loan...

Shelvey comes back presumably at the bottom of the CM pecking order, having moved up a place in the absence of Lucas. I expect he'll be behind Adam, Henderson, Spearing & Gerrard when he comes back.

We're suddenly looking quite light in CM - how ironic, eh?? :P

I now expect us to be in the market for a CM in January, and if we sign him, Shelvey will be sent back off to Blackpool again for the rest of the season.

I'm hope I'll be proved wrong but jonjo looks like a lazy [oops] when playing for us.Not an asset needed for dm roll. My hopes are SG for Lucas, if not then hendo with no dm except for games against big teams then put spearing in. He can hassle and play the simple ball similar to (but not as good as) Lucas

Is aurelio alive still? he could play there?

fabio can play there i remember a brilliant away game at spurs he played DCM won 1-0 luis garcia scored

Think he played there away to Portsmouth a couple of years ago, the season we came 2nd. Think he actually scored from an indirect free inside the box in that game, and a late winner from Torres. Memories!

well i won't be putting my faith in aurelio. i'll be surprised if he can play more than 2 games in a row. i think hendo and spearo deserves their chance and hopefully at least on of them will take it. im not counting on it though. i would like to get an experienced dm i january (maybe on loan)

the worst thing now is jay spearing is our only dm unless we get gerrard fit and firing. not so long ago everyone on here was saying how weak our centre midfield was when we did nt have the ball, now weve lost our only real defensive midfielder, i hope im wrong but i think we are in trouble. we ll see after fulham away i guess

i don't really get why a lot of people seem to think stevie is the answer to the dm problem...yes we need his experience but stevie is first and foremost an attacking player...

Gerrard is a terrible DM, always wants to break forward. Lucas was so good because of his discipline

gerrard is not a natural dm but hes the next best thing we have in the squad to play there. i dont think jay spearing is good enough. hes an honest hard working player but he does nt have the ability imo. were in trouble we realy are.
