KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum CONFIRMED TEAM & MATCH THREAD V VILLA

Downing really had been poor at left back, I can't understand why Rodgers continues to persist with him and yet Assaidi can't even get on the bench. I like Rodgers and think we're moving in the right direction which is great but I just don't see the logic in this and it's got me questioning Rodgers a little.

Why not? He was signed quite late with BR well in place.

Downing playing with Transfer window approaching....hmmm

To be fair to Rodgers, I was questioning his subs in the West Ham game but he got that right. With Enrique injured maybe Downing was the only choice, Wisdom might not be ready for a full 90 minutes after his injury. Hopefully he'll come on later in the game and Johnson will switch to the left

It doesn't make a difference who signed him to be honest, he has played under Rodgers and has impressed everyone (bar Rodgers it seems) so why can't he get a start or even get on the bench in the league? It doesn't make any sense.

Where is Sahin and Assaidi??????

He did say that Assaidi was followed by the stats staff, not sure if that meant anything.

Anyone know how long Enrique is out for?

Heard a quote from Ian Ayre that the Assaidi deal was sorted before BR got here, he actually said it on the Being Liverpool series.

LET'S F@CKING 'AVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
