Martin Skrtel

Put your tin hat on fella.....

I think he's a good defender, just his decision making lets him down.

He needs to learn to stay on his feet and not lunge in. Don't get me wrong we all love a slidy tackle and he's good at it but sometimes you just need to stay on your feet no matter how much you want to lunge in and smash someone.

If he could learn some discipline and self-control he'd be a much better all round player but he can't because he's too ****ing stupid.

He's dog****. Just **** the tit off. The fact Rodgers keeps picking him every week is a real worry and sets the alarm bells ringing.

Did we concede today?

He is a good player, just needs to learn a few things and he will.

Gets goals too which is rare for a defender.

No we didn't, no thanks to ****tles who did his best to present them with a gilt edged chance. Luckily for him and us they fluffed their lines.

He's garbage.

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Scary thing is, he's miles better than Lovren.

Always liked Skrtel but his mistakes seem to be more often these days, maybe he lacks an organiser? Looked good next to Carragher, always wanted him and Agger to get a go and when they did there seemed to be mistakes again.

He's 30, been with us 7 years and so far havn't managed to learn not to wander headless in to tackles out of position - doubt he will at this stage of his carreer tbh.

I've never been a fan of Skrtel, and I really believe he is the one that needs changing in that area of the pitch!

he's lost without an organiser. Can make 10 great clearances and 10 great tackles but then make a crucial mistake.

He is nowhere near as bad as some make out, he is commited, decent on the ball, loves a tackle & is very good in the air. Unfortunately he can also be rash, headless & couldn't organise a ****ing a piss up in a brewery.

We need another CB anyways that's sure. Another keeper for me is even more pressing.

Yep. We got the clean sheet but christ he was terrifying again. After nearly managing to gift Ings a goal by selling himself, getting done and them hitting the post he managed to top the ****ness of it in stoppage time. That header, oh my ****ing word, thankfully we got away with it, not so lucky most other weeks though.

Also, do we ever catch anyone offside?! Doesn't feel like it because he just loves to feel the goalkeepers breath on his neck, Simon/Brad's toothpaste must be real good.

The biggest problem at the club.

[baitman]

with agger or carra to hold his hand he was ok.

clearly not the brains of the team.

[ChesterDave]

Some people need to get off the ****ing fence in this thread and tell us what they really think of Skrtel.

Or at least get together so they can get the abuse right.


He's a cunt for backing off and a cunt for going in for the ball.

[G]

He's ****ing ****e and I'm amazed some people still can't see it. Being better than some of our other ****e does not equate to being a good defender, it just means your less ****e than some of the utter ****e we have playing for us.

[Rowan]

He's garbage.

Totally agree, Foggy. Just shows how bad Lovren is when this chump isn't the worst defender on the park. He's total garbage. From his awesome debut at Havant and Waterlooville to now he's had maybe 6 months of hash free football. The rest of the time he's been frequently calamitous.

And play who in his place though?

He'd be great, was great (good? not jaw droppingly terrifying?) with someone like Carragher

Might have rose tinted specs on, but I'm fairly sure we didn't all despair at him alongside Carra

[The Birdman]

Has someone just described Skrtel as decent on the ball and very good in the air.

Do you even watch Liverpool games, are you pissed, in fact are you actually even awake or is this sleep posting??

Jesus wept, he's appalling and has been for the bulk of his 7 years with us, it sums up Liverpool FC that he has lasted 7 years.

He's **** scared in possession, he's (probably) solely responsible for Mingolet's loss in confidence as he passes the ******* ball at him (not to him, at him) every 60 seconds, he gets bullied by almost every single centre forward and if he had hair, wore long sleeved shirts and wasn't covered in tats he'd be (rightly) ridiculed.
