Reserves tonight - Team news

[paulcooper4]

Talk of Leto and Hobbs being absent due to likely first team duties tomorrow night.

Of course if they're involved they'll be on the bench, but surely we're not so thin on the ground that we need those two involved?

2 excellent players mate. Leto in particular looks like he has an EXTREMELY bright future in the game. Outstanding footballer.

Hobbs is improving all the time and is now getting the bit of confidence in his game that he needed.

The fact that they may be involved tomorrow does not mean we are thin on the ground. Its because we can have 7 subs. Rafa has always stated that if he could have 7 subs in the premier league he would give more young lads a chance from the bench

The opinion I've seen more than once on Leto is that he is a skillful player but unlikely to have the extra spark to ever make it at Anfield. It seems like you may disagree.

3-2 Brouwer!!

3-2

Brouwer (sp?)

[bazza76]

Well worked goal that. Spearing playing a nice ball through.
Am inpressed with the few touches Pacheco has shown.

[Shaggy]

Pacheco looks class.

Not been impressed with the very one-paced Brouwer but fair play to him for plugging on and getting his goal.

[Shaggy]

Full time, 3-2. Excellent win, good performance and an enjoyable game.

Spearing MOM, Nemeth impressive, Insua very classy, Plessis impressed as he and Spearing ran the midfield and Pacheco looked very bright when he came on.

Good stuff

He is a great little player. Full of skills and a great left foot. Strong as an ox too.

He's about 6'2 but I take your point.

Undecided on Leto. He looks great at reserve level but has looked a little lost in the first team, although he's shown glimpses.

from the matches I`ve seen Brouwer is never going to make it at LFC. We might get some £s when he moves on, but that`s about it.

what, a lad of his age in a new country has only shown what he can do in glimpses?

I don't mind one-paced players, as long as their one pace is a fast one.

Whenever I've seen him play, I've spent most of the time wondering what it is we saw in him that prompted us to sign the lad. No pace, dodgy first touch....I don't wanna slate him cos he's only a kid, but I'll be amazed if he makes it with us.

I think Insua continues to look the one nearest to stepping up to first team level. If we get a nice and easy FA Cup 3rd round draw (fat chance), it'd be great to see him given an opportunity.
