Fucking Keane, Somewhere only we know.

The Anfield Wrap did an interesting podcast with Brendan Rodgers, worth a listen if you have a spare 30mins.

Interesting comments about the defensive midfielder so many seem to desire. Asked specifically if we lack steel or aggression, BR disagreed, he says that it's easy to mistake steel for having a 6" 4 unit in midfield beating people about. He says that the quality is more important, and that the size and physicality of the player can be misleading (I completely agree with this), making reference to how Raheem Sterling can on occasions outmuscle Skrtel and Agger, he says we in no way lack strength or fight in midfield, however he does say on occasions, we may lack quality.

I despite Keane, and if you listen to the podcast, you'll understand the title 🙂

Confirmed that they were expecting an offer to come in for Reina, and signed Mignolet because he didn't want to get burned again by being left without a keeper at the last minute.

I thought it was a very stupid question to ask! They're all your archetypal scouse music nerds, and Brendan Rodgers is a football manager. Clash of cultures waiting to happen. Should've asked something neutral about Australia or that kind of thing.

Lucas ftw.

So we've got a central paring that gets twatted around by a 5 foot midget. 🙂
It's obvious we don't have any dynamic, strong player in midfield to call upon though.. Henderson keeps busy but he's not that kind of player, while Gerrard is still a genius but can't move around all that much for 90 minutes. Lucas and Allen really have to up their game this season.
