Mole_Toonfan Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 As a sidenote, I think Liverpool fans massively overrate Coutinho. Yes he's a good player and probably Liverpool's best atm, but he's so inconsistent. He's overrated in general tbh, does nothing for weeks on end and then bangs in a screamer after his 200th attempt and people wank themselves silly.

Conjo Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Based on what I've seen of them this season, the only players I'd have in our starting line-up are Moreno, Skrtel. Im a bit conflicted due to experience vs. potential, but maybe Sakho and Benteke as well. Edit: Sturridge as well, if fit. But he never is. That is a bit ridiculous to say tbh. So you'd start Colback + Anita ahead of their midfielders? Is Perez better than Coutinho? Come on man, let's not get carried away after beating West Ham 2-1 at home. We've been absolutely dreadful this season and so have they yet they're about a million points ahead of us. I did say starting line up, so nah, I´d start Shelvey and Saivet ahead of their midfielders. Not much between Perez and Coutinho for me, but I prefer Perez as he seems to be more versatile and hard working. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don´t see the big difference, but I admit Coutinho is probably the safest option if you could chose whom you´d like in the team. Both are about the same age, Coutinho has 18 goals in 98 games for Liverpool in the PL, while Ayoze has 12 in 56. I assume Coutinho has quite a few more assists than Perez, but then again, he has also played in a far better team than Perez has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Saivet before Can Just a week or so ago Shelvey was on the bench for Swansea. All of the sudden he'd walk straight into the Liverpool side. Only two players I'd say walk into that side with ease is Wijnaldum and Sissoko. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I'd be surprised if Shelvey wasn't a regular starter at Liverpool now like if he'd stayed, doubt he'd pull a strop there like he did at Swansea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Some interesting viewpoints in here when viewed from the outside . A number of people - not the same ones, I'm sure - were scoffing at Shelvey just a couple of weeks back. You reckon? I think he'd be a disaster. Too one paced for our team. Suites Swansea's pass and move. He'd be forced to go sideways and backwards with this squad. I think he'd make enough of a difference. He's got the potential to take a game by the scruff of the neck, and some real nous. You don't need amazing to stay up, you just need to improve on the glaring weaknesses in the middle (defence and midfield)... Starting Saivet ahead of all their midfielders when he's played less than 40 minutes for you . They're in the top half despite having a dodgy keeper and defence, and a big lump up front. Their midfield can't be that bad. I get that every football forum is like this, but it's dangerously RAWKish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Liverpool have been playing Lucas (I've heard he's playing well tbf), Henderson, Ibe and Milner, it's hardly a daft shout to suggest Shelvey, Wijnaldum and Sissoko start amongst that. I was massively apprehensive about Shelvey at the time because he obviously packed in at Swansea, looking into it more though he could be a great signing and pretty much eactly what we needed. Our problem has always been that our central midfield was horrendous, not our midfield as a whole. Sissoko, Wijnaldum & Perez are genuinely quality players, we just cannot get the best out of them often enough when the 2 behind are soft as shite and adverse to playing the ball forwards, and the defence is leaking goals for fun. Saivet and Shelvey will hopefully change that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
