Reserves v Bolton

[Alonso]

Daniel Agger continues his quest for match fitness when he plays for Liverpool Reserves against Bolton Wanderers at the Halliwell Jones Stadium on Tuesday night - a match you can watch live online on LFC TV.

 

The Danish international made a successful return from his metatarsal injury when he played 45 minutes for the reserves in last week's 2-0 win over Manchester United, and he is the star name in Gary Ablett's line-up against the Trotters.

 

The match kicks-off at 7pm GMT and our live show starts at 6.45pm.

Also Rafa praising Nemeth saying he has a future in the PL

[Bailo]

Where's Simon gone, Nemeth's mate who came over with him?

[Alonso]

Where's Simon gone, Nemeth's mate who came over with him?

Just coming back from a long injury altho he was on the bench recently (last week maybe) but dunno why he isn't tonight.

[psl]

Agger maybe involved on Saturday then.

[KD07]

Agger rules so hard we already know Bolton will lose.

[Ben 23]

Brouwer

[Ste M]

Brouwer

 

Indeed.

 

Nothing against the kid, but he's plainly s****.

[Sion]

The only genuine reason I can see for Brouwer playing is he plays the 'Kuyt' role - and Rafa wants the reserves to play as close to the first team as possible.

Where is Pacheco?

[Conor]

Lovely little finish by Nemeth after brilliant play by Puteriill. If Nemeth doesn't make the grade here I will eat the computer I type this on.

[Guest Sabre]

What a great run by Putterill and an easy finish for Nemeth. 1 nil

[Maldini]

The only genuine reason I can see for Brouwer playing is he plays the 'Kuyt' role - and Rafa wants the reserves to play as close to the first team as possible.

 

I don't think it's that he wants them to play like the first team, more that you need to make the ball stick up front and for all his sh*tness, Brouwer is alright at that.

[Guest Sabre]

San Jose has a similar style of passing to Xabi

[Guest Sabre]

Great long ball by Agger and we've got a free kick in the D

[Ben 23]

Agger's playing some nice passes out of deffence.

 

Nemeth just hit a free kick harder than I thought he was capable of.

[Guest Sabre]

I like watching the reserves. They keep the ball really well

[Ben 23]

Lovely move involving Insua and Nemeth and a shot from Flynn. Great save to be fair.

[Guest Sabre]

Fantastic football from Insua and Nemeth tees up Flynn and a great shot is saved down to the keeper's right for a corner.

[Guest Sabre]

Nemeth's touch is very assured.

[Ben 23]

Every move finishes with Darby or Brouwer

[Guest Sabre]

I like Plessis too. Very important job and he's clearly very disciplined.

[Guest Sabre]

Every move finishes with Darby or Brouwer

 

Yeah, Darby ain't the best. Brouwer is poo.

[jimmylibel]

They keep the ball really well

 

Plessis is particularly good at that from what I've seen of him. Just sits and keeps it simple. Apart from the wayward shot!

[jimmylibel]

San Jose has a similar style of passing to Xabi

 

You're right, the way he strikes it is very 'Xabi-esque'
