We need our attacking players to score more than 3 goals between them in 5 league games.

By your reasoning Rebel, we should drop Carragher, as he's not getting enougb goals
[/quote]

we should drop one of them and play Agger in games against the likes of Stoke, WBA, Hull etc. there aren't many threats apart from set pieces, no world class strikers to contain.

when your attackers are off you need a defender to grab a goal, one proven player at scoring goals in a Liverpool shirt against premiership teams like Chelsea, Arsenal and West Ham is Agger

our CBs need to be pushing up and popping up in the box in games like this, making the extra number.


[/quote]

So you want to put a centre-half into the team who hasn't played a league in 13 months for no reason other than he 'scores goals'. Fantastic reasoning
[/quote]

what is wrong with that? he is fit and played for the danes, stoke are fucking shit and Agger would have been like an extra midfielder and would have helped in pressuring them. you look at all our rivals they have defenders who will grab or be involved in VITAL goals, that's why we need Agger

[/quote]

Your basing your whole arguement on Aggers goal against West Ham which was an absolute peach. That was a complete one off, and while we probably won't see Carra do that , I'd have him in my team over Agger every day of the week

How would Skrtel feel if he was dropped for not scoring enough goals? He's been excellent, one of our most solid players but now you want him dropped?
[/quote]

my whole argument isnt based on that goal against West ham its based on Aggers ability on the ball, at bringing it forward, at stepping into midfield, at taking occasional attacking responsibility like none of our other CBs can, at playing passes and yes, scoring goals against the likes of Chelsea (from set pieces). these qualities make him useful to the side especially against teams at home who offer little in attack and where we're expected to have most of the possession

Skrtel or Carra should be dropped for him in those cases no matter how well they play, who cares how they feel, we should use players in games where they're suited, that's the reason for having a big squad

We need our 40 million odd strikeforce to score, then if not our we need out 11 million winger (Babel) our 10million striker (Kuyt). Failing that we have our captain fantastic Gerrard who we usually can rely onto score not Daniel Agger.

I agree if Agger played he would have acted as an extra midfielder at times and he would have joined in with our attacking play but we didn't need him nor should we need a defender to score when we have million pounds worth of attacking talent ahead of them not performing.

Oh my godness.

Sorry Carra, thanks for the last 500 odd games, but your dropped today because I've a feeling Agger is due a goal.

The praise Agger gets on here is outrageous, he's played one game for us in 13 months, and whilst I didn't see it I heard he was shite

i never said that he would score, i said his qualities make him a better pick for some games

we do not need Carra or Skrtel and their last ditch tackles & solid defensive performances against poor sides. we need to take more risks when appropriate against rubbish sides to ensure we dont draw. remember in persuit of a title a draw is not good enough, you pressure rubbish sides enough and they collapse and conceed, you need defenders who can help pressure them when we need it, Agger can do that.

all our rivals have defenders who grab vital goals and offer the same qualities as Agger does. example chelsea have 350 million of talent but occasionally they will play like shite and Terry will score from a header and they will win 1-0 job done

The attacking options let us down. Shit happens.

I have said in the past that our defenders don't contirbute enough goals but playing Daniel Agger on a saturday does not gurantee a goal for us. The buck stops with the attacking talent we have.

it's impossible to say but you never know, instead of Alonso having to take the ball and sky it, Agger might have stepped forward and done something different leading to the break through, he can be an extra body with his runs etc. and a problem around the box, i just think this is the type game where you need it when the attackers are struggling

no but he can be an added option, this is the point. you need to be less predictable against these sides, they know how we like to play, they mark the attackers and get tight to them and hope for the best. if a CB comes forward with an ounce of ability like Agger does it can disrupt that plan. it's just an extra option

Funny thing is, I really rate Agger. Rebel wants unpredictable players. I was thinking Babel, Torres or Keane, he's thinking of centre half.

Bang him in the side against crewe and see how he gets on..

Correct

 

[J Macleod]

This thread turned shit very quickly.

 

[Rosco]

These threads about our defenders not scoring enough never cease to amaze me.

Torres - 1 goal this season. Keane - 0 goals this season.

It's not hard to work out where the problem lies, it ain't at centre back.

Amen to that.

 

[Glock21]

Agger need games and i expect he will get 15-20 games this season. We will probably see more rest for Carra this season.

I would never judge a defender upon whether he'd score goals or not.

With Sami playing though we've been used to have a defender chipping in once every ten game or so and this will certainly win you games.

We didn't draw the Stoke game first and foremost because our defenders lack of goals and/or attacking intent but you must admit, whether you'd only like your strikers to score or not, that a lot of Sami's goals in the apst has been crucial.

Personally I'm of the opinion that for as good the Carra/Skrtl partnership has been defending-wise they lack a bit of flair when going forward helping out in attack, when we're up against very tight oppositions at Anfield. And this not only this Season mind.

Btw Rafa has today spoken about his desire to keep Agger and Agger's desire to stay put. It seems they've finally had 'the talk'.

Isn't that our fullbacks fault?

Bunch of slackers.

 

[Delinquent]

Anyone would think that that Daniel Agger is Zinedine Zidane the way rebel is carrying on.

Besides, Jamie is a monster in front of goal. The way he masterfully bounced the ball off the defender to wrong-foot the keeper against Middlesbrough was awe-inspiring.

I reckon he'll score again this season.

Carra and Skrtel are not great at passing and distributing although Agger is hardly Zidane, he can step up and be an added player who can pass, shoot and take set pieces and generally be more productive against 10 men camped in their own half

 

[Judge Jules]

He can certainly shoot, but his passing is very poor for such a stylish player.

Liverpool boss Benitez: Agger deserves new deal

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez insists defender Dan Agger is in his plans.

Benitez has revealed he is eager to secure Agger's services for the long-term.

"I was on the flight to Marseille last week and thinking about how we needed to offer him (Agger) a new contract," Benitez said.

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez has revealed that he has decided to offer a new deal to defender Daniel Agger, even though he was missing from the Anfield squad for major part of last season due to a foot injury.

The 23-year-old Danish International still has 18 months left on his current contract with the Reds and has to compete with Jamie Carragher, Martin Skrtel and Sami Hyppia for a place in central-defence, with Liverpool boss Benitez keen to keep the defender on a long-term basis at the Merseyside club.

"I was on the flight to Marseille last week and thinking about how we needed to offer him (Agger) a new contract," Benitez told the Daily Mirror.

"I've been talking to Daniel and he is ready, focused and really happy here. I'm really pleased with him and have a lot of confidence in him, but he knows Carra and Skrtel are playing well and that maybe he needs to wait because the understanding between them has been good.

"I have said Daniel is one of the best centre-backs we have when he is fit and, if he is, it will be difficult for me.

"He is a very good attacking centre-back when we are playing at Anfield, but he needs games."
