Aspas played well in pre season.
Has played dog ste in the prem.
PL teams are a different level to the teams on the pre season tour.

He isn't going to get much time now when we have Moses, Suarez, Coutinho and Henderson all to play infront of him. Touch wood Sturridge stays fit.
He's an ass on the bench at best.
If he grows into the prem then great.
Another Borini in my eyes though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVOXQUZme_o - Video of Aspas playing against Real Madrid.

He plays lone striker and has no trouble holding off Pepe on multiple occasions.

Perhaps we should stop playing him out of position then.

I don't really think that video against Real flatters him much. Receive, hold and pass? At Liverpool we don't play them kind of tactics. We want him to be taking players on. Making good runs inviting Gerrards passes.
This is a much more flattering video for him. Shows him more controlled and comfortable on the ball

As one of his biggest critics on here, one who has seen very little of him to be totally honest maybe we should give the guy a break for a while. Takes a while to settle, look at Lucas, Hendo etc etc. Hopefully he will come good smile

Thank you.

Speaking of Borini, has he played yet whilst on loan? David NGog quality at 10 times the price.

I've lost count of the amount of times I and others have posted stats about how little Borini actually played for us and how fragmented those few appearances were due to injury. To say he was a failure is incredibly ignorant. In fact ignorant isn't even a strong enough word.

I have to agree, and have said it a few times now.

Championship though it was, when he played for us in his correct position of central striker in a good run of games, he was sharper than a sharp thing.

Injuries, plus being played on the wing for Parma, Roma and now Liverpool have stunted his development.

Those in the know in the Italy camp would not say he was a potential Inzhaghi for nothing.

Suggest to Swansea that you cobble together some sort of deal where Allen goes back home and you get Michu going the other way.

Alternatively, how about Pozuelo. Every time I see him he impresses me, he has to be at least as good as Aspas.
Hahahahahahahahah.

No.

This thread is dominated by shouty children who throw their toys out the pram and point fingers of blame when we don't win.

Alberto does look to give 100% effort. I'd like to see a line up of Moses, Alberto & Sterling sat behind Sturridge against Sunderland. Been suprised at Sterlings lack of 1st team starts this season (despite only being 4 games in), I remember the commentators saying he's been playing exceptionally well for the reserves. I suppose with Henderson playing the Dirk Kuyt role it's been hard to fit him in.

Fingers crossed for an easy game with no dramas this weekend. A 1-1 score in Manchester would be a good result for us & I hope Girou gets a hatrick (SEE thats what happens with fantasy football, you start wishing the opposition do well for your score hehe).

3 points this weekend and I'll be very very happy, these are the kind of games we generally slip up on. Lets keep it going, do we have Luis back for the next league game??

Suarez can play in the cup against UTD, that is his first game back, he is then available for the rest.

Possible line up?

Mignolet.
Wisdom, Skrtel, Sakho, Enrique.
Gerrard, Lucas.
Henderson, Alberto, Moses.
Sturridge.

Got to be worth a punt!
