Imagine being a fan of players at the club...

So if you drop Adam for Lucas in your prefered line-up, you're no longer a fan of Adam?

Wonderful logic.

Definitely. Just really needs to improve his tendency for over zealous/rash tackles, which was the principal source of the eleven yellow cards he picked up last season.

Deffo, he's a bit of a dirty bastard and mouths off a lot.

Decent fee for a decent player, the only people moaning are the utter balloon-knots who want the big-names, and NOW.

One concern I have regarding him is his disappearing act he sometimes does when his side is under the cosh. Doesn't seem the best tracking back, he'd better improve that because i think we'll be seeing a 4-3-3- more often than not next season.

                    Reina

Johnson - Agger - Carragher - LeftBackTBA

Kuyt - Adam - Gerrard - LeftWingTBA

           Suarez - Carroll

I have a feeling that Kenny is going to put Gerrard in central-midfield, in front of the defence, like he did with Ronnie Whelan.

No Lucas?

I definitely think Lucas is a good, and improving player, and will definitely feature a great deal next season. And if Raul Meireles stays then great.

I just picked 11 players including Adam, and the left-winger we seem to be after, and put them into what I though was an attractive formation.

I didn't mean to start up another "Lucas is great/Lucas is crap" ruckus. I haven't got Skrtel in there, and I didn't mean that we should get rid of him either.

Squad player, he signed a new contract a month or two ago, he will get more than enough chances this season.

When?  No Europe for the squad players to get a run out.
Rossiter absolutely bossed it tonight. Really believe he'll end up playing more games this season than Lucas.

And always injured, and a lightweight who can't tackle. Despite all his natural ability, he can't produce if he's not on the pitch.

He wasn't injured much last season.

So, having options is great isn't it? Where do you fit Adam, Lucas, Aquilani, Gerrard and Meireles in the middle together? That's 5 full international midfielders to choose from, without even mentioning Spearing, Poulsen and Shelvey.
He wasn't perfect, he made mistakes. But he was genuine. He had the best interests of the club at heart, and gave us a plethora of successful teams that we should have been thankful for.

I can see him coming of the bench in at least 15 games without European football, should he graft like he did at the back end of last season he could start a fair few too.

Welcome to Anfield,Charlie!

A Jock in midfield again!

And a left foot in the team,badly needed imho.
Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there
With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns
"Come in", She said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."

I might be in!

He went missing after his January transfer debarcle, happens to alot of players, if it wasn't for his performance prior to Christmas they would have been relegated by February.

i think kenny will start with lucas and adam as 2 deep lying midfielders (the foundation), have Carroll as the main man up front, and have any 3 of gerrard, suarez, meireles, aquilani, henderson maxi, pacheco and kuyt playing off him...gerrard can always drop back if needed and spearing as backup...i still think we need a natural winger though, and of course a left back!

I'm certain he won't get a game ahead of Meireles, Aquilani, Lucas, Gerrard, Henderson, Adam, and Shelvey - wow that's a lot of CM's.  He might get a game before Poulsen :)

Rubbish, when did he go missing when they needed him at the end of the season?! His 20 goals and assists, right up until the end, gave a shite team a fighting chance of staying up. When did he go missing? When he was suspended doesn't count mate!
