It really is so poor how nobody challenged for Pelle's knock on header for their goal, everyone just sank deep.
Perhaps Lovren would solve that sort of issue? Would think that he wouldn't have allowed that first knock-on header on the edge of our box by Pelle, as he's more likely to have challenged that header rather than collapse backwards.
There are a number of scenarios where I can see Lovren proving of real value.
1] A handy Lovren draft excluder. Considering he falls flat on his face five or six times a game, he could use this skill to instead lie across the base of the changing room door and help keep the dressing room snug and warm.
2] A mobile sign post. Standing outside Melwood he would hold up a sign over his head saying 'Training, this way lads, I will be there later, when I figure out how to do a six yard pass to my own team mate'. At the end of the day he could pack his sign away and drive home, though he might end up sliding sideways into the next street by accident.
3] A helpful light bulb changer. So for example if the light bulb blew in the physio room, rather than Sturridge jumping up and potentially having a career ending knee knack, he could lie back while Lovren reached up and put in a new, longer-lasting bulb. He could then flick the switch and pretend a light bulb had gone off over his head indicative of his usual once-a-match brain meltingly good idea/bad idea, right before he ran across the room and booted a ball through the roof and over the walls of the training ground.
4] A useful snow plough. With his manic lunges, pointless lollipops and 50 yard slide dashes that totally miss opposition players, he could quickly and effectively boot snow off the training pitches during winter.
5] An entertainer at a children's party. With his amazing, innate skill of doing something incredibly stupid and dangerous at inappropriate moments, he would have the wee wains rolling and spluttering with laughter for hours on end.
These are all the scenarios I could picture where Lovren would be useful None of them are on a football pitch though.
