Greedy from Ibe, but it looked like he should have been given a penalty

 

[Modo]

Clear pen

 

[Fabio]

Gerrard hits post

 

[Glen C]

Blatant penalty, how has the ref not given it?

 

[Mystic]

True, I'm not sure if it's actually poor or just seems that way. I think he just hesitates a lot and wants to make sure he plays the right pass but the opportunity is often gone by then.

That little run was another example, he should have passed to Gerrard, tbh, he deserved a penalty for that foul. I don't think it's a fault of his too much, just an experience thing.

 

[ibromurph]

Difference in maturity between Ibe and Sterling demonstrated right there.

Same situation and Raheem passes.

 

[Farkmaster]

We could definitely be more ruthless on the break.

 

[doctor_mac]

Ibe is ju8st ttrying to play his more senior colleagues in if he can. For the reserves he's like 'fuck ye', and that's what he'll need to develop at this level as he larrups the ball into the top corner.

 

[gkmacca]

The game is just set for Portly to do a streak in the second half. It's one of those nights.

 

[Glen C]

Alberto looks lost.

 

[Whirly]

Would like to see Borini for Sturridge sometime in the second half if we can manage to go up by three.

Sometimes I worry about you, macca.

 

[gkmacca]

Very static up front.

 

[Rosco]

Alberto looks lost.

He's the only worry out there.

Yea it's definitely a youth thing, sometimes the skillful kids are used to beating a couple of players and doing things on their own not picking the right pass. It'll get loads better this year I'd guess.

 

[gkmacca]

Alberto looks lost.

Yep. He's certainly not hiding - he's running all over the place - but he seems clueless so far.

Not sure about that Sterling had a selfish shot from outside the area when Sturridge was making a run in the box. Should have played him through.

Looks like a reserve player making his debut. Which would be fine if he hadn't cost 8m.

 

[Oncy]

I really fucking love Daniel Sturridge.
12m is a total fucking steal.
Hes just perfect for us.

Alberto has definately been the weakest link by miles.

 

[Rosco]

Half time 2-0.

Solid performance, and we could have had another couple.

Sturridge might be England's best striker at this point.

Ibe and Sterling are threatening at every opportunity albeit they still look a bit raw - but they are 17 so it's to be expected.

I think they are all a bit selfish.

What is he offering that suso couldn't? I've seen nothing that says that he should be ahead of suso.

So do you and the rest of the brains trust on here want to apologise to me for the shite i took for doubting him, now that you've seen him in a red shirt ?

In half a competetive game in a new country?
No. And dont be a dickhead.

you deny him a lfc future after 45min of 1st team footie?

 

[mark1975]

Yes, we apologise for him looking a bit out of it in his first ever competitive game infront of thousands at Anfield. Do shut the fuck up. Lay into Johnson instead, he's been shite, again.

Very true.

One competitive game.

One.

No, I'm sorry one half.

 

[juniormember]

Neil Mellor! Good to see him trying out a new career!!

 

[red_maradona]

sterling looks destined to hit the highest levels, he needs game time and I fear someone like Moses, who is not that much more effective, would hinder him.
