What are the chances of us getting thrashed by Stoke again? I have to say I'm slightly worried. That "sacked in the morning" chant last year is still ringing in my ear. This time Rodgers has no excuse, and I can't help but worry that we are going to be poor. We keep hoping Rodgers has learned; but it's hard to overlook our starting two center backs; the main problem being skrtel. I'll be honest, I'd almost rather see Gomez and Ilori start than that combination again, though I still don't get why sakho and Ilori STILL hasn't been tried.

If you think UTD with their new recruits need time to settle down, Y not Liverpool with over 7 bought in?
I expect a draw at the best.

I realize ilori hasn't been in the squad because of Portugal duty but surely this Helsinki friendly he will be there. Although Ed002 saying that we are looking for a loan just irritates me to no end, because it'll probably happen. It's interesting that we have guaranteed playing time to so many players; how can we even fit that many on the bench?

{Ed002's Note - I didn't say anything about Liverpool looking for a loan for Ilori. Liverpool tried to sell Ilori but scared off all interested parties with the asking price.}

Yeah it was ed1 that implied the club are sounding out a loan for Ilori - or something to that effect.

It seems we are a few windows behind. When we sold Suarez we needed goals. We've actually attempted to bring in a goalscorer now. And it's plain obvious we need a goalkeeper and new top class defenders. We'll sort that next summer and maybe then we'll get back in the top 4

EG, what are you talking about? What relevance does it have to the OP's comments?

In response to OP, I will reserve judgement until I see the teamsheet for Stoke!

Hey Ed 002. Makes no sense this Ilori scenario. If LFC / Rogers does not think that Ilori will cut it at the required level how come the asking price to sell him is too high for other clubs? Sounds contradictory

{Ed002's Note - Liverpool have asked too much for a number of players - Balotelli is another.}

We have some new players and it would take time to bed in ( I guess ). Stoke has done quite good this window and it would be a tough match and I expect a draw.

Ok mate?

My apologies ed002. Forgot it was an attempt to sell instead of loan.

{Ed002's Note - No problem.}

EG you started your comment with "If you think UTD with their new recruits need time to settle down". He didn't mention United?

Why do people keep getting on Skrtel's back. He was by far our best defender last year. Everyone ha an opinion, but most people i speak to agree

Tele, you must be watching another player who is NOT Skrtel. I suggest you go watch him last season closely and see how aweful he actully is

A lot of Skrtels mistakes are passed off as his partners mistakes by a lot of people I talk to

Calm, which is why is say that people should use their eyes and make these judgements for themselves because I used to believe that Skrtel was great as well until Ed01 kept saying to watch him closely and BOOM, I started to see all the flaws in his game and truth be told, he`s getting worse YET The Defensive Guru in BR thinks he`s our best CB. Says a lot more about BR`s incompetence in this area than it says about Skittles being a poor player. Crap even Carra who played with him for 5 yrs, ranted about him on Sky as being hopeless yet many on here drink the Koolaid of "if he plays every game then he must be the best". Rubbish!! He plays every game because we have a coach who can`t recognize a good CB like Sahko when he sees one.
