KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Just who was our worst player yesterday?

He played on the wing for national team? Player of his talent would manage regardless

He doesnt do it often though does he?

Not since he's arrived at liverpool, no. He can no doubt play there though and considering Collins completely nullified him yesterday it would of made sense to move him rather than hope that sticking with the tactics would win the game.

Only since he arrived at Liverpool was Luis Suarez made a central striker.

He plays as a number 10 for Uruguay basically roams around Cavani either feeding him in or making something of the scraps.

I have seen him play on the wing and I never really fancied him there, prefer him in and around the net

But in a 442 formation

go and wash your mouth with soap

When you have a side parking the bus you need to have a back up plan. Sometimes having someone like Carroll you can lump it forward to IS the answer.

We get caught out 5 or 6 times a season at home dropping points to teams we have absolutely battered. And every time we get the same excuse about the sides coming for a point. And that we cannot break them down.

There are too many days when a midfield containing Henderson and Downing from the off is not going to get you a win. Got a feeling that too much smoke has been blown up Downings arse and he is back in the comfort zone. OK he got injured yesterday but the formation was par for the course.

We have two wholehearted players in Skrtel and Shelvey who cannot get a game at the moment. Carragher will be gone at the end of the season. I really see no pint playing him if Skrtel is going to there in the future.

I watched the U21 game tonight and Suso and Shelvey played as though their futures depended on it.

I don't think it is about these players going out on loan. They have stepped in before and can do so again. They are getting better. Is Downing getting better? Will he ever get better? How many more games will he get before we are all calling for him to go again?

The inconsistent form of the team can be summed up from the inconsistent performances of the usual suspects. Unfortunately you only have to have a couple of other players with an off day and you are lucky to get a point.

Skrtel can't get a game because he made too many mistakes, costing us important games and I fully support BR's decision to drop him. Strange as he was our player of the season last year, but this season he has been one of the worst at times and when you're trying to get back into the top 4, you can't make the mistakes he has.

Shelvey I still have faith in, but with Henderson playing well recently, there's no space for him. Wouldn't want to replace Lucas with him as it limits our already average defensive midfield ability.

As we're out of all the cups now, I guess we will be playing our strongest 11 for the rest of the PL games season, and unfortunately for them, neither Skrtel or Shelvey fit into that team at the moment.
