    its right now... for the arsenal game.

    it could've easily ben heard for the manc or bournemouth games but it seems they waited til the twat was fit to ban him just to hurt lfc a bit more.... or help us depending on your view.

    Back four a little better, but we need a new keeper in January.

    Rodgers is currently going for a less is more approach with our defense.

    We conceded a goal against Burnley..as a result of our failure to clear the ball in
    our penalty area. Could have kept a clean sheet. <doh>

    Skrtel at fault again for abdicating responsibility, but the midfield should be doing better to track Sigurdson.

    Get a top class replacement for Skrtel and Lucas, and this will team will continue to reduce the number of defensive errors. We've seen a lot of improvement once we took Gerrsrd out of midfield and Johnson/Lovren out of defence.

    You didn`t take Johnson and Lovren out of defence, they got injured. The good news is they will be back in Jan.

    Wouldn't it simply be 'avoiding responsibility' ?

    Sunderland were toothless in attack but we did well to restrict them.

    Markovic at RWB defended pretty well but Lucas offered really good protection.

    But with the introduction of the likes of Can, Sakho, Lucas, Moreno - it's no coincidence that we've defended a lot better.

    I agree that playing with guys who can all run helps

    I felt that Wimbledon for 30 mins sat off us and got well pounded but we didn't get another

    Today... Sunderland never ever pressed us at all, Johnson was a full back!!! 1-0 hit the post, bar, side net.... FFs we could've had 4

    Maybe but I fancy the lad wil be trying his hardest to get in there and fight for a role

    I personally think Skertl or lovern..... Hmmm if we keep can and sahko each side and stick the mad man in the middle he might work

    Who knows

    Can't see him coming good. He's had so much game time and so many opportunities and every time he plays he's absolutely useless. Can is our best defender right now which is ridiculous frankly. Sakho is growing in confidence, he was very solid today and hopefully will just get better and better, I've got faith in him. I'm a Lovren atheist though.
