Skrtel had a very good season 2011/12, but I wouldn't say he ever got above decent the rest of the time. Certainly an intimidating fucker though. Last season was a bad one for everyone in our defence, and yet at times we were solid. It was odd. Second highest clean sheets, hardly conceded once, joint-highest in conceding two in a game yet rarely three times. We seemed to improve as the season went on though. For a time Agger simply forgot any sort of marking or positional sense.

As for Coates I have no idea. I always thought he's looked decent most times I've seen him, and even thought he was good with his feet despite being 6ft 5. But he had an utter shocker against Oldham which seems to have sealed his fate. And reading between the lines with Rodgers' interview last month, he's as good as gone. We do have a few youngsters who will hopefully make a bit of a mark next season though, in Wisdom, Kelly and Robinson, though it wouldn't surprise me to see any/all go out on loan.

that wisdom is good. i think kelly will make it eventually too. you need more foreign, coutinho type signings to make it into the top 4. if you utilise the international market you'll probably do quite well. the main worry with rodgers was whether he had the ability to sign from the foreign market as he was at a small club prior, but i guess when you walk into a bigger club you absorb bigger resources + scouting system so it naturally helps out.

Suarez wants to play in the CL.

Bring him home Arsene

Oh for crying out loud just go.

I'm bored of it already.

Rafa wants Suarez at Napoli to replace Cavani. Can't see that happening.

Carra says Suarez shouldn't be blinded by loyalty to Liverpool if Real come for him

I don't believe for a second that Andy Carroll cost us £35m, that cost in my opinion was inflated by the Enrique deal. I reckon we agreed to pay the Carroll fee and within the same sum place a deposit on Enrique on the understanding that we would acquire Enrique in the summer. Why would they sell arguably their best performer for the same price they got him? Doesn't make sense to me. Anyhows that's the way I justify the Carroll fee to myself - that perhaps the big lad cost us £25m and the little Spaniard cost us £16m. So with that then, we've lost approximately £9m, with which we've saved by not paying 2 years of his wages at £4.5m a year. So if you look at it like that, like I do, then we're all square. Best of luck to him, just unfortunate that he wasn't a card Brendan wanted in his deck.

:doh: :haha:

Fee agreed for Mignolet.

Bye Pepe.
