    Molby: Agger could be out for the season

    Apologies if posted elsewhere:

    Mølby: Agger's season may end




    In Danish, but basically it's Jan Molby saying that he's heard Agger might not play again this season due to the recurrence of a knee injury sustained in a Europa game? Or something similar anyway

    Keep him a la Ledley King, as when fit and on form he's one of the best in the league?

    Or flog him because he's broken
    I saw a dead fish on the pavement and thought "what did you expect?"
    There's no water round here stupid, should have stayed where it was wet

    Knowing our luck, if we sold him he would stay fit for the rest of his career.

      I don't think you need to worry about that. He is injury prone and things will not change going forward.

      This year he played 16 games only... For comparison Soto played 15 ..

      Certainly explains our problems at the back.

        Has he renewed his contract?

        Should now be pay as you play like Rafa offered Aurelio, he's taken enough wages over the last 4 years. If Bupa had him and aurelio on thier membership, they would be paying Bupa to get treated.

          The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

            Agger and Aurelio are super players when fit but that just doesn't happen too often. I feel sorry for both lads as when they get a run of games they look stand out players but it just doesn't happen for them.

            Wage drains unfortunately,Agger has only played 10 full league games this season, his injury stats are frankly ridiculous, as for Aurelio its even worse. IMO pay as you play or sell.

              Daniel Agger, another Liverpool player that falls into 'wait and see' ...lets wait and see if he'll get over his injury plighted 5 and a half year Liverpool career and suddenly stay fit for the vast majority of games.

              Joe Cole...'lets wait and see' if he'll suddenly start justifying his big reputation and £90,000 a week salary.

              Alberto Aquilani - give him another chance 'lets wait and see' if he'll reproduce his form in Serie A in the Prem League despite being completely **** for us.

              Emiliano Insua- despite being a disaster for us, a defensive shambles, there's some people calling for him to be brought back and given another. Lets wait and see if he'll learn how to defend, eh?

              Raul Meireles - lets wait and see if he'll stop chickening out of tackles, do some of the dirty work required by a midfield player.


              No rush folks, lets just wait and see. yeah?

                i think that is a bit harsh rudo.

                i agree on the agger bit. its really unfortunate that our best cb will never be fit enough to play a large part in our season. Thats why i have been saying sell him. the argument about unsettling defence for me doesnt hold if you keep agger and play when fit then you disrupt the defence. so two defenders cbs in the summer please

                cole i tend to agree but even with him and all the other you list you use a one sided argument.

                With aquiallani you ignore how he got better in the prem when he was with us (i tend to agree that he may not be right for the prem and not sure the physicality will help him injury wise he may be in the best place italy)

                Raul - he gets or has got goals. with a team its about a mix and blending those things

                insua - a young fb he does deserve longer at the club as far as i can see. not a total disaster by any means. when bringing players through you have to be careful and we were not (though that was forced by another constantly injured but very good player)

                  The problem is that teams rush back their players after an injury. So much money at stake and all that.

                  Agger and a lot of other so called injury prone players would be a lot less injured if the clubs could afford to wait another two weeks or so after they are fit again until they play. Now you throw them in as soon as you can straight after the player is fit.

                  Just because the player is fit doesn't mean that he is ready to play. The body still need more recovery time after the injury.

                  When you are out injured you use other muscles to compensate and that means a bigger chance that you will get injured because of that in other places.

                  The players at the highest level must train very hard and be very close to what the body can cope with. That also means a bigger chance that they will get injured. If you don't train very hard then you will risk injury because of that.

                  It is really no easy solution.

                  The best solution would be to send away the players on holiday a couple of weeks every third month or so during the season IMO. Give them some time off. Three four players every time. You would need a bigger squad but I can't see any other solution.

                    Sometimes that's the case, but there are plenty of injury prone players whose next injury is often something different rather than a recurrence of what they've just got over.

                      They use other muscles more than they should do. For example if you get an injury in your left leg then you compensate that with using the muscles in your right leg more.

                      Then you get injured after a while in your right leg instead.

                      That is why players shouldn't play straight away after an injury. They need to get the right balance back before they play. Rest the muscles you used more than you use to do.

                          When it comes down to Gerrard I said that we should rest him more often, every third game or so. He clearly can't cope playing every game.

                          The main reason to why I want us to sell Gerrard is that we may get something like £20m for him and he isn't the same excellent player now as two years ago. We will be able to replace him with another player, for example Canales in the same position.

                          How many positions can Gerrard play in now and say that he is our best option in that position? One is probably the answer. A free attacking midfield position.

                          Can we get in a better player in that position? The answer is yes.

                          Gerrard isn't a must now. We would be able to replace him and make the team stronger.

                          If we can get in a ball playing central defender that is as good as Agger then I would sell him. The problem is that it is very few of them out there.

                          It is much easier to find a very good attacking midfielder than a very good ball playing central defender.

                            Hmm, that's an interesting idea, Gerrard for CB. I like your thinking Arn.
                            .
                            Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



                            May the Lord bless this post.

                              there is also an age difference to consider.
