Reserves v Blackburn

[red g]

Watched the game last night up 'til midnight (LFC.tv). Ince and Suso were very good in the first half, Pach came on around 25 min mark and played some sweet one two football with Suso. Disappointingly Hansen had a shocker, should be out the door soon enough, and let in an easy free kick to make it 2-1 by half time.

Second half we just dozed off for the first 15 mins. Made Blackburn look as good as, well, a better Blackburn. Jack Robinson was injured yet played on, effectively leaving us with 10 men until he was subbed for Flannagan. Mavinga went to cover Robinson's position while Flannagan had an almost MOTM performance as RB. Unfortunately, we'd gone 3-2 down by that stage.

Found our composure (so we are made of strong stuff thank God) and started taking a hold of the game again. Amoo went off, another player who's time is up, to be replaced with Palsson to give us steel in the middle. Suso and Pach found their rythm again and in fairness we should have won but 3-3 is still good.

As good a player as Ince is, his decision making and ball control (not dribbling, control) needs to be much better. Will get (has been) found out at a higher level whereas conversely Suso's control is as good as Wilshere.

hows flanagan getting on? does he still stand out as a big unit in reserves?
remember seeing his u18's and he stood out like a man mountain!!

Flanners

Flanagan stands out because of his good looks.

But not as a man mountain in reserves. I've always liked his crossing ability, going forwards he made a big difference yesterday. Not sure of his defensive abilities yet, not seen enough of him against better sides.
