Martin Skrtel

[RichC]

He was very good in his first 18 months or so but he looks shot to pieces. Capable but too unreliable, brainless and rash. I think centre-back is a major issue for us now. Carra past his best, Skrtel shot to bits, Agger always injured, Soto limited. ****ing hell.

frightening isn't it - really is a massive problem position for us.

If only it was the only one

Kelly not far from stepping in, hopefully.

there is a thread called centre backs that mentioned the the other day

There's a hell of a lot wrong with his game right now. Needs to be dropped.

We need to sign a top class CB. Absolute priority now

[GorbyPeacePrize]

The Carragher Cult can't wait to lay into any rivals for a CB spot. We will be worse off camping out in our own box hoping to just get through the game, rather than take the fight to the opposition. I'm surprised there haven't been any calls to adopt the 10-0-0 formation.

I think that none of Skrtel, Kyriakos or Carragher should be first choice in an ideal world, IMO Carragher has superior organizational skills to any of the others, and ability wise he and Skrtel are much of a muchness. Given the last few games our defence has been a shambles I think that should put Carragher top of the pecking order to partner Agger.

I don't think Carragher forces us to defend any deeper than anyone else, we were defending deep earlier his season because of Roys tactics not because of who was organising the defence. I'm not a big fan of Carragher (anymore) but IMO a partnership of him and Agger is currently our best option.

Not entirely sure what you're trying to say here.

I wouldn't worry. Gorby will be soon blaming Carra for the outbreak of swine flu.

[greenbloodred]

Sell.

[Mattshark]

since the 1st game of last season where him and Carra ended up smashing into each other he's been pretty poor.

I think partly for the team and partly for his own good he needs taking out the firing line, I think he's adequate for a 3rd or 4th choice CB to come in when needed but not to be starting game in game out.

This for me is now actually the most pressing position to fill as it's really costing us games.
