    He was playing poor before that tbf.

      I think that there are a number of factors affecting his form, his lack of rest having played in the Olympics in the summer. Also he's still settling into the club and has been asked to play different midfield roles in his time here. I think he needs a break and we also need to establish what his role in the midfield is.
      The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

        I've said it before and I'll mention again. There was mention by Brendan about Allen's pelvis, in that it wasn't quite right after an (old or recent) injury or something. Anyone know more about this?

        His unusual performances can't just be because of his baby.

          Maybe it caused the injury. I'm led to believe that babies often cause pelvic floor weakness.

          Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

            From LFC Tv article on 24th Dec:

            Liverpool will travel to Stoke City on Boxing Day with no fresh injury concerns, Brendan Rodgers has confirmed.


            The Reds will have a fully fit squad to choose from at the Britannia Stadium, barring Fabio Borini who is continuing his rehabilitation from a foot injury.

            Speaking at his pre-match press conference at Melwood, Rodgers said: "We're in quite good health. Everyone is fine and working well, so we've got no problems."

            Rodgers opted to hand Joe Allen and Raheem Sterling a rest against Fulham on Saturday, with the pair entering the action in the 4-0 win as second-half substitutes.

            The manager explained: "I felt it was the right time [to rest Allen]. He's also suffering a little bit in and around his pelvis.

            "Add into that he has played twice the amount of games at this stage of the season than he had last year. He's been playing in a lot of the games - sometimes up to three games in a week. Physically, that has been a big demand on him.



            "It's my job, along with the staff, our great medical team and sports science team here to assess the moments when we can give them a rest.

            "The likes of young Raheem as well, he needed the breather and I think you seen in his little cameo at the weekend, the weight lifted off his shoulders by first and foremost signing his contract. I think that has probably been a great relief for him to get that over and done with.

            "He had a breather as well and was really bright - and plus he got his haircut and looks like a proper young man now!"
            One tit for another.

                  He needs a run of games on the bench simply not good enough at present and is becoming a liability, midfield should be Lucas Henderson and Gerrard

                    Lucas has been equally as bad though...

                      Yep Lucas has not been good enough but needs time to get back to fitness. Same can be applied to Allen. I thought he did better yesterday after Lucas was subbed.
                      Are we winning?

                        To be fair to Joe;
                        1. He improved 2nd half (yeah yeah, he couldn't have been worse).
                        2. In the second half there was movement ahead of him which wasn't there first half.

                        I would play Henderson ahead of him. Also (imho) Lucas has struggled since his return (understandable).

                          Great point about the movement ahead of him. Sturridge is going to be very important for us and seeing how Suarez started linking up with him straight away looks very promising. I think this will change the dimension of our attack completely. Our midfield will do better as well.

                            Is the movement ahead of him really relevant considering his instinct is so clearly not to look forward and pass? He looked better second half because they did not press us as high and quick, that's all IMO.

                              He's an automaton and is programmed to play the Rodger's way. There's not much that I can see in his game that's based on instinct or true vision. With the right set up around him he may prove a pivotal part of midfield but it all seems that there needs to be too much help from others in order to see him perform.
