Agger

[CJ]

where is he?

[lucas]

its simple. Sami can't play in Champs League on Tuesday. Agger can and was rested for this game.

[Exiled_red]

I'm guessing he's still not 100% and Rafa doesn't want to risk him, add to that the form of Carra and Skrtel, and Sami not being able to play in Europe

[memzey]

I think there might be more to it than that. Got no 'insider' knowledge or anything it just seems that way to me.

Loads of rumours flying about the city last year.

[OzzyNev]

like wat??

[El Jefecito]

It was all made up bollocks and it was a disgrace that LFC forums would carry such muck. You won't see it posted on here.

Fact is, Agger was ropey against SL. Skrtel came in and anyone would be hard pressed to replace him. Maybe when Rafa sees an opportunity for a CH to join the midfield we'll see Agger back.

Either way i'm sure he's still on a HIGH after the win.

Agger played the whole 90 minutes in midweek for Denmark when they beat Portugal. So i would assume that Rafa doesnt want to risk him playing 2 games in 1 week. He is still obviously lacking match fitness and nobody wants him getting injured again. Better to take it slow as we will need him this season big time

I don't believe the malicious rumours that were going around last season and this is certainly not the place to discuss them. No point spreading malicious stuff that more than likely was never true

hmm, thing is, Skrtel has really developed his ability to bring the ball out of defence, I dont know if we could play with 2 cb's who do that, the balance we have at the moment is superb, so guess it'll have tobe a choice between Skrtel and Agger for the ball playing CB

then can take it in turns you know

Skrtel is looking a great buy.

He will play Tuesday.

One of them needs to learn to lead the line like Carra and then we will be set for a long, long time.

At the minute Skrtel totally deserves his place (as does Carra) and it is excellent to have this level of competition. It does all make you feel a bit sorry for Sami though - I think he might leave in January if Agger regains full fitness.
