Liverpool v Trabzonspor Match Thread

Not so sure about not having the skill, i think he's extremely skillful and technically sound. Very one-paced though.

One-paced is just the right word!
With "skill" I meant him being able to trick his way past a defender which I've rarely seen him do...

[SB]

Aurelio's free kicks havent been great tonight IMO

Yeah, he isnt one for a step over or a trick, that's true.

His touch, control, footballing intelligence, movement and passing are his biggest strengths.

His shooting's not upto much either, if that latest effort is anything to go by

So in other words he's actually the total opposite of Kuyt - but still brings the same in terms of flair on the wing

I think if you could merge the good things of Maxi with those of Babel, you'd have a player

I echo the positivity about Jovanovic's corner delivery though. Don't want to go nuts on praise for him yet, I remember thinking Kvarme looked boss when he first came!

I thought Maxi had a good second half

I don't want to turn this into a witch hunt but I've just lost that feeling that anything unexpected can happen when he's on the ball - just too static and slow for my taste...

good set of burns on sub

You're a braver man than me, trying to claim knowledge of City's first team

Even Bobby Manc doesnt know it

25 Hart
04 Kompany
05 Zabaleta
19 Lescott
28 Kolo Toure
18 Barry (Balotelli 57)
21 Silva (A Johnson 66)
34 De Jong
42 Yaya Toure
09 Adebayor
32 Tevez

Yes you do. Admit it.

[Roboklopp]

Proper poor this.

How did Babel do
