Now that ive seeen liverpool try out all their Strategys but i am still not sure if we r fit enough.

Torres and Gerrard look Really Good they have to start. Benyoun also shud start agaisnt Villa I think we needed stronger oppenents to get fit but too l8 now.

Voronin, Kuyt and Kewell are all awfully negative Switch Torres and kuyt and Switch Kewell and Babel.

I reckon That will turn our negative play into positive Overall I am not impressed with Kewell and i am a big fan of his.

Rafa has been trying out the new boys in differing positions to see how they will work into the team as well as to get their fitness level up.

Watch this weekend’s Rotterdam games to see if there is any improvement! It will be a return to play Dirk’s last team before he joined Liverpool.

I think our team is doing well and their fitness level seems to be improving each week. Everything will show within the first 10 games of the EPL.

Not interested in arguments with fans from other teams, just real football talk. Not fan shit!!!!

well RIDDER8 , i’m sure arsenal can come third, with rvp fit, we have a goalscorer, a better defence with the signing of sagna and eboue will be moved to right mid, i am sure that is better than last season. i dont hate liverpool but torres might not change too much for you. although having seen him play for spain he looks able to cut it in any league, but will he score as many as drogba, ronaldo, and (hopefully) van persie? i think not.

Dump Reina Santiago?? U got to be kidding!!!

I rate him as 2nd best in the premiership, right behind Petr Cech…He’s only 25/26…wif some more years to come…If he is not of Khan and Buffon’s standard… I think he is at least a Ricardo of Portugal or Coupet of France…He is definitely better than Van Der Sar, Tim Howard And Jens Lehmann…

He’s only not play for Spain because of Casillas, I’m sure he is next to replace Casillas in the spanish squad if Casillas is out!!

Agger is good, alright..he can play well…I remember vaguely(if my memory dint fail me) how he fared against Drogba in the Second Leg of Champions League last season…He done well..after the first leg how he was embarassed by Drogba..

Well..Riise slipped up many times..im afraid to say…but he can challenge for the Left Midfield spot…

Spizzy is right about the difference between time Lpool and Man Utd player takes to settle in…and im also starting to get worried…perhaps that’s the reason to all the poor start to the season for the past 2 seasons…But im sure Arsenal cant claim third…

Benitez maybe a class act in the champions league but he will never cut it in the premiership.He will never have a constant starting eleven,because to him rotation is the thing,im sorry to disappoint all the liverpool fans out there but frankly speaking,the scousers EPL title will not come via benitez.

Carraghers comments about chelsea being the team to beat is just like a hater not appreciating greatness,look at how quickly nani,and hargrieves are settling in to the united team and how liverpools signings are still struggling.And all that smuck that liverpools players are still to hit their prime,then why the bloody hell did they spend money on some half baked youngstars,who will take a whole season to mature in the EPL,plus with the rotation maybe two seasons atleast. like arsenal did with last years youngstars.But atleast they got a regular place at the starting eleven.with arsenals performance yesterday,liverpool are back in their usual fourth place finish at the end of the season coz arsenal are reclaiming third.

dump reina, replace by carson.
finnan n carra keep their place.
dump agger n risse, they r sub standard. get better CB n LB.
dump PENNANT! get a better right wing.
as gerrard n alonso play r somehow the same, i will go for the liverpool capt. so, alonso to the bench.
kewell babel n benayoun shall compete the left wing position.
torres and voronin should lead the attack.

those names tt i didnt even mention, i THINK they should just packed their bag n leave for another club OR they shall just sit on the liverpool bench happily.

well…i had been supporting Kewell since his Leeds days myself…I have to agree that yes, he had not produced that kind of form he has with leeds united….but I feel that we should let him be full to fitness den we judge him.

Alright, lets say that he cant swing it for us by january…it’s his last year of his contract anyway..if im nt wrong…so i think rafa will try to sell him by then…

So i say…let’s give him another half a season to prove himself…

Yeh that is why Benitez is trying to make a team with two good playyers every position so we can have consistancy it is almost complete.

Arsenal didnt do to well today but dont worry as they say it is only pre season and your youngsters will develop faster and faster at a far higher rate than anyone else but i still reckon u guys need a good finisher.

Da silva cud be that but only time will tell.

Kewell, are you being serious? The guy is terrible, if anything, put in Babel (Whom will be worth the 11.5mil over Torres 20mil+ flop) over Kewell in midfield and then maybe play him wide field. Kewell should be on a side like NEwcastle or Middlesbrough. No offence to both clubs but he would fit into both. Also Voronin is proving to be much better then Torres at fitting into Liverpool.
