Dugout Discussion

6 February 2012 1359 comments

Akers

An eventful Gameweek 24 concludes tonight at a foggy Anfield, where title contenders Tottenham Hotspur take on in-form hosts Liverpool. The Monday Night Football Dugout Discussion promises to be an exciting one, with talking points aplenty already.

Spurs boss Harry Redknapp isn’t in Merseyside tonight, having spent the day in Southwark Crown Court and seeing his flight up grounded due to ‘technical problems’. He’s named a side though and, along with the home side, it’s as follows…

Liverpool XI: Reina, Johnson, Kelly, Agger, Skrtel, Spearing, Kuyt, Gerrard, Adam, Carroll, Bellamy.
Spurs XI:Friedel, Walker, Dawson, King, Assou-Ekotto, Kranjcar, Livermore, Modric, Parker, Bale, Adebayor.

Luis Suarez’s lengthy ban has ended, meaning Kenny Dalglish can name him amongst the substitutes. The undroppable Craig Bellamy starts, as does Dirk Kuyt and Andy Carroll. Elsewhere, fantasy favourite Jose Enrique misses the clash, woth Martin Kelly coming in.

As for the visitors, Ledley King starts, but there’s no Rafael Van der Vaart, Aaron Lennon or Jermain Defoe, meaning Harry Redknapp is forced to name an unfamiliar line-up.

Follow it unfold in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which can be accessed right here.

        OK. Saurez has been done by the FA but his manager is sticking by him, and one assumes KD knows his players, as any manager would, and feels the FA is wrong.
        
        I see nothing wrong with that. It happens all the time.
        
        I don't see a culture of racial abuse within Liverpool FC. I don't see a culture of racism within LFC any more than any other club.
        
        Yes, KD should let it go and move on. I wish he would as going round in circles like this does no-one any good.

        Mmm. 😕 I am desperately fond of you, 4Vets - but this will not do. Liverpool are in deep doo-doo ... and someone has to have the courage to get them out.

        What deep stuff? They just need their manager to let it go and move on. I wish that would happen and it can't be that difficult.
        
        Love you too Doos. Althoiugh discussions such as these can be uncomfortable, it's good to talk about these things.

        Where's a good 'bringing the game into disrepute' charge when you need it?
        
        Dalglish, and by extension, 'Pool's reaction to this is diabolical. I'm also of the opinion that Chels isn't far behind. Booing players who make race charges? I'm afraid to say: *that's* the definition of a culture of racial abuse.

        That would do it, KE, and I wouldn't disagree with it. I am not trying to defend KD here as I think his actions are ridiculous and totally unwanted. All I am trying to say is that he is not stupid, he knows his players and onbviously disagrees with recent events. As for the definition of a culture of racial abuse. It doesn't work in football and with a lot fo football fans, and that's shite too. Most are sadly too moronic to realise what they are actually booing 🙁

  Kenny Dalglish is a top man - if' you've met him I am sure you will find it to be the case. Honest.
  
  It's all a show - I swear. He's saying things to spice up the upcoming game Vs Man U at OT.

Didn't take Suarez long to get back into the action... with a karate kick to Parker's nuts.

Maybe he was thinking how much he hates certain types of people...

Liverpool the league's lowest chance conversion rate.

  Suarez - very wasteful player.
  Carroll - insufficient quality.
  Kuyt - not given enough chance (imo).
  Bellamy - very decent, but not a central role and not up to him to take the most responsiblity.
  
  They'd need a midfielder in shocking form, like Maxi at the end of last season.

  Not the most unbiased of opinions here, but judging from the games I've watched I'd say it's all about the quality of chances created. When Stewart Downing gets the ball his crossing has been awful, and for every 'chance' he creates by putting the ball somewhere a Liverpool player might get a head on it there are half a dozen more that don't beat the first man. The ones that do make it aren't great.
  
  Add to that Suarez's desire to make friends with the woodwork at every pitch in the league, and Andy Carroll's profligate finishing, if you can call it that and you have an answer of some kind.
  
  The thing is Suarez had a great conversion rate at Ajax, and still does for Uruguay, he's scored as many goals for them this season as he has for Liverpool.

    Interesting new explanation, that it's the quality of the chances.
    
    Always seemed implausible to me that they could be SO. BAD. at putting the ball in the frigging net.
    
    Certainly they constantly pump the ball into the box and take potshots from range when that fails. Skillless.
