I don't see why not as he clearly has the pace (apparently) , and is young enough to learn the position....

What's his crossing and final ball like though?

 

I know I really dont have much ground to stand on here, but his name is Ilori. Not Llori.

 

Think he covers LB already.

 

Sakho covers LB

Is Ilori also a Lefty? Hope not, as that'll be Agger, Sakho and Ilori.

 

Would you still see it as an issue if they were all right footed?

 

Sakho can play CB and LB. Ilori can play CB and DM I think

It's not an issue - I was just replying to whether Ilori could play RB.

Which to be honest, I have no idea!!

 

I remember during the Hollier years where we didn't have any lefties.

 

That's that debate sorted then

 

I remember to.

But then we got the king of the lefties!!!

And then!

We got Traore and Kewell...

 

woo I win.

Rodgers is certainly sorting out our height issues in defense if these happen.

We'll just need some height in midfield after.

Ilori could play for England! The FA would probably ignore that fact though, even if he is world class.

 

Who (on here) said he could play DM?

 

Just because it is not on his profile it does not mean he cant do it.

I reckon Luis Alberto could do a job at DM given some time to get familiar with England football.

 

Surely you mean Kings?

All three are champions league winners.

 

Gods.

 

LA would be more like a Gerrard and a quarter-back type approach. An Alonso rather than Mascherano if you like.

 

Used to play as a striker? Final ball might not be terrible with some work. He's young enough.

 

then why change....

 

Carragher played up front when playing at youth level.
