Bottler was strong - but he;s been anonymous for me, and it;s one of the reasons why I don't want him as captain. Henderson and Milner can work - but they need protection behind them. Not only does this protect the defence better, but it will aid the attack so Hendo and Milner can do what they do best and make those runs into the box.
hes playing where told.... milner has actually been poor. imo if they had someone behind they'd not play like this at all. mr lallana is muck on a stick
Would like to see Ibe play LW so he can cut in on his right. Then allows Clyne to run down right wing giving us more width on both flanks.
Mario Balotelli could be on his way to Qatar. The Italian has been told he has no future at Liverpool under Brendan Rodgers and the club are desperate to find a buyer for the 24-year-old. But Chelsea legend Gianfranco Zola, who has taken over at Qatari club Al-Arabi, believes his compatriots Antonio Cassano and Balotelli could thrive in Qatar Stars League. He told Gazzetta dello Sport: "Cassano and Balotelli? They are two top players, and it could be an excellent opportunity for them to play in a league with less scrutiny, recharge their batteries, and return to Europe as protagonists." Adama Traore, the exciting young Barcelona winger who Liverpool officials were reportedly flying out to meet, is in contact with Southampton. The 19-year-old is expected to leave the Nou Camp this summer but Mundo Deportivo report that the Saints have spoken to him about the prospect of a move to St Mary's. He is understood to be keen for more first team opportunities after not playing any Liga matches last season, and a move to the Premier League seems likely
