Why bother picking Livermore absolute rubbish

Believable4 Unbelievable2

I think that's a bit much !
We will beat them at the lane.

Livermore is as bad as Rose ! And what sort of formation was that against Stevenage ?? Why didnt Lennon start ? Why did Defoe start ? We Werent at the races !!

Agree2 Disagree1

I think we seemed complacent more than anything else; we only seemed to realise we needed to try after half an hour. Am I the only one that thought Nelson looked a bit sloppy?

Agree1 Disagree0

Livermore played alright it was Parker that was slowing things down. If Harry picked a 4-4-2 from the start we would have won that.
I just Can't wait for Sandro to be back.

After half an hour? We where rubbish for at least an hour! Our team looked like they didnt want to play and even stevenage looked more technically gifted at times! We played a formation which we have used 3 or 4 times in the last year with hopeless long balls often to the other team from our defence. Midfield looked like they didnt know where to be or what yo do.

When we reverted back to 4-4-2, we finally started to play football. Parker knows his job and finally started doing it, players knew where each other should be without needing to look.

Livermore is a good prospect but all he does is the simple things well, to be great youneed to take chances and drive forward with the ball. He passes back and to the side too much for my liking.

Am i being harsh? Maybe but when a player in your teams value equates to the same as the whole back staff +teams value including yearly wage, i do expect a win.

On a good note, welcome back Aaron, and you looked sharp when you came on

Yeah, Lennon did look sharp. We finally looked like we could score once he was on. For most the game, it felt like Defoe was invisible, I'm surprised he wasn't subbed off. As for livermore, he did make one decent run down the right towards the end of the fame, but I agree with Naz, alot of the time, he doesn't take risks, and always plays the ball back

I think everybody is being too critical of Livermore .... And rose ? Because I'm on iPhone I cant see who said it ... But rose was our best player today I was gutted when he went off .... I think it was the formation that did us in .... Bale being too greedy .... Lennon did very well when he was on .... Nelson I thought was alright actually just very little pace in him ....
I'm just confused why we needed a back 5 and 2 defensive mids Parker / livermore ... Why not play kranjcar from the start and do a 442 like some of you have said is beyond me .....
However I think at WHL after Harry seeing his formation fail and convert back to normality ... We will win .... But it didn't need to get to this stage ....
And also fair play to Stevenage .... Held us off well .... And deserve the money they will be getting from these two games ....

Jermain - we must have posted our posts at similar times as yours was not up when I wrote mine, but we have very similar views on Livermore, 4-4-2 formation, Parker in the first half and I fully agree on Sandro! He is the modern day Roy Keane. (a world class version of Stefan Freund!) Can't wait for him to be fully fit, he needs to loose that gumnshield though or at least change the colours to something to match spurs kit rather than Brazil's.

Livermore rubbish.......did you see the liverpool game? sounds like another "fan" who probably supported chelsea last season.

Thanks Ed
Davo {Ed001's Note - you're welcome mate, he was probably just touchy because he had been made to get off the sofa by his missus or something.}

Lennon..Modric...VDV...Hazard
..............Adebayor

or

..................Vorm
Walker...Kaboul....King....Ekotto
...........Parker...Sandro
................Modric
Hazard......................Bale
..............Adebayor.

Believable0 Unbelievable1

If Lennon never drops form then fine but would you really want bale to drop back to left back ?

I'd say the second option although to say king and Parker are the future * next season sure *
But not the far future

However I'd prefer a different goalkeeper
Vorm and krul will cost far to much

But with you list of outs even if we don't make much on sales like what 20 m ?
The wages saved will be awesome
