Alberto Moreno

[DannyMan2006]

This was my first post in this thread.



I stand by this post and to be honest am a bit disappointed in him so far at LFC. He has pace and shows a good desire to push forward, but he just seems an absolutely ****e defender isn't he. Not quite sure now if proper coaching can sort him out or whether he's just a lost cause defensively. Everything he was doing at Sevilla, he is still doing at LFC & was why I was hesitant in us getting him.

If he is going to play him, it has to be in a forward thinking role... suits his attributes much better. IMO he is only getting his game as we have **** all width. With the change in system though it should really suit his game, only problem though is it doesn't really seem to suit many others.

I watched him in that Europa final when we were heavily linked. He was all over the place and didn't look that good defensively. I was slightly worried but hoped he'd improve in time. He hasn't really, but I'll see what happens with a new manager before calling time on him.

yeah same here mate.

he is not too bad going forward and working from the left flank, but he is a bit of a liability in defence.

without a world class left sided centre back [and thats not going to happen] to play alongside him we would be very vulnerable down our LHS.

The formation suits him great & to be honest he's been a breath of fresh air down that flank. My happier once he's kept away from the defensive positions. Was great today

I'm not sure why but I find Moreno absolutely hilarious.

I like the fact "our Al" looks more like a proper scall than he does an expensive Spanish international footballer. If he wandered around Birkenhead with a pair of paint spattered trousers and brown reinforced boots, no one would even look twice.

That's because Steven Gerrard is his Dad.

On the subject of his dog, I just saw this

Liverpool FC star Alberto Moreno's dog 'savages a neighbour's pooch' before being dragged off by defender

Liverpool FC player Alberto Moreno allegedly had to drag his pet bull terrier off a neighbour's dog in a vicious attack near his Merseyside home.

The Daily Mirror reported that the Spanish defender - who was walking pet Ali on a private road - is believed to have intervened and dragged the dog off after it sank its teeth into the Japanese Spitz.

A source said: “Moreno’s dog came out of nowhere and savaged the Spitz.

“The bull terrier is a nasty little thing and police need to act quickly before real damage is done. What happens if it turns on a child next?”

Moreno, 23, who joined from Spanish side Sevilla for £12million in August last year, got the pet as puppy to help him settle into his new home.

He and Ali have become well known in the neighbourhood.

Earlier this year he said: “ My dog has allowed me to settle much quicker here.

“He’s always happy, he always wants to be alongside you. He gives me so many moments of joy. He’s a big friend.

"When you lose a game he’s always there to comfort you.

“He’s always happy, he always wants to be alongside you. He gives me so many little moments of joy.”

“I always wanted to have a dog but my parents never let me, so when I came to Liverpool it was one of the first things I did and I have not regretted it for a moment. He is a big friend.”

The left back has shared regular pictures of his pet with his 265,000 Followers on Instagram.

The left-back chose Ali as he was an English Bull Terrier, a breed that appears in his favourite childhood film Toy Story.

He picked the name Ali as it combines his first name with that of his fiancee Lilia.

A Merseyside police spokesman confirmed the force had investigated the incident and said: “The owner of the dog had been spoken to and given advice.”

It is understood the Japanese Spitz was not seriously injured.

The spokesman added: “The owner did not wish to pursue a complaint and at this time no offences are thought to have taken place.”

Liverpool FC declined to comment.

The bread tend to hate other dogs they are not familiar with. They are fantastic around children and people and have a great temperament. The words 'savaged' yet it was not seriously injured later on

After careful consideration I think I like about 8 separate things about that photo.


Albert, take a bow son.

Though quite why those ****ing savages are allowed to be kept as pets is a disgrace
