Agree, but he's only played 45 minuts for us so couldn't really judge him on it.

Lallana would have been in there had he been playing and not injured as well as you say.

This is why I'd have liked to have seen the so-called strongest eleven a few times rather than this 'give everyone a chance' approach.


For £4m you could see the sense behind it though.

I can see the reasoning but I don't think I'd have taken the option. I can't see him challenging for a first team spot, I think he will be back-up player and/or plan.
 
Who is on for Sterling and Hendo?

Suso and..?

Nevermind, Coady is on.
 
Coates has looked much better but he's got the passing ability of Traore :D

Talking od dodgy left backs...

Cissokho played for Valencia in Emirates Cup today... put in a beauty of a cross for someone to tap in from.
 
FFS, take it we're not bothered about getting our main players ready <doh>

Had we not been in the final on Monday then I think we would have.

With only 1 days rest between the games, we were never going to play the same players in both games. As this means less than Mondays game (final againt a rival) no surprise that the reserves are playing in this.

You'll see a totally different 11 come Monday <ok>
 
Skrtel coming on.

Balotelli looks like he's trying to impress Rodgers to get a move.
 
According to Sky commentators, Barca boss, Luis Enrique is coming on <diva>

Appreciate that but I couldn't give a **** about this competition or the rivalry in a friendly, what I care about is being ready for Southampton. Still, two games left so if we play something that reassembles a starting eleven then I'll be happy. I thought there was only one more friendly to go until I checked too.

Gerrard, Skrtel, Sakho, Enrique, Coutinho all coming on now.

Happy you grumpy batard :p
