Martin Skrtel has just signed a new contract to be announced by the club in the next few days.

Or next few minutes.

Great news. *quietly sobs*

He's not signing a new contract to sit on the bench as he would have first team football elsewhere.
So looks like he's No.1 CB again this season which again shows BR is learning nothing from what he's seen on the pitch. Worst news of the transfer window so far IMO.

I expect Skrtel and llori to share the Right side along with Sakho.

Who do you want instead of Skrtel? Toure?

10 Jul 2015 17:51:14
Like it or lump it, aside from Toure (who I rate but is getting on), Skrtel is our most experienced defender.

We need him.

10 Jul 2015 18:14:46
I wouldn't be so sure based on the terms of hi previous contract. We'll see.

10 Jul 2015 19:46:44
Wrong, Davey! Toure is. And Skittles is the poorest defender of all the senior CB`s and the poor games he has proves that. The fact that he was given a new contract shows how clueless BR is about coaching a defence by keeping a defender who is that poor YET wanting rid of Sahko, Lovren and/or Ilori. Go Figure!

Skrtel might be a poor defender, But Lovern has been the worst defender of last season and would be in the worst team of EPL.

Skrtel has played better than Sakho, Lovren & Toure.

No one can seriously argue those 3 have performed better on a consistent basis.

And I'm not even Skrtel's biggest fan.

10 Jul 2015 21:30:54
honestly skrtel poorest defender????? you winding me up? take your sakho and lovren mould them together half a skrtel. you'll find he gets dragged out of position covering for them useless lot! or would you have him sitting in position watching like the aforementioned? think you need the baseball page ohio, hahaha toure its not 2005 he's done now

{Ed001's Note - I think you are watching the wrong sport if you think Skrtel is getting dragged out of position covering the others. It is him dragging everyone else out of position with his complete lack of positional sense.}

10 Jul 2015 21:37:24
yeah boom, no one can argue that skrtel has been consistently poor.

10 Jul 2015 21:54:59
Skrtel is not a good defender. But that doesn't give any other player an opportunity ahead of him as everyone except Sakho have been worse than him.

Skrtel is not BR's pet in fact it was Lovern who he wanted badly and got it paying double.

I wouldn't trust Skrtel but no chance would I bet on lovern.

TBH we got only one solid defender in Sakho and rest all are poor except Llori.

Scouse, it is you who needs the baseball page because I've played every level of footie but the pros including playing semi pro in France so based in your comment, you have nothing to teach me about the game. I suggest you use your eyes and watch Skittles closely and you will see for yourself what I have discovered about him. The Ed has been saying this for two yrs and I decided to watch him closely and I saw the light. Blaming the others for him being dragged around to cover others shows you have no idea what you are watching nor talking about. Watch the FA Cup game vs Villa and see how he is toyed with by Benteke, runs around trying to make last ditch tackles and trying to win every ball, some of which clearly, he can't win. He drops back so deep, we can't even play the offside anymore. He is the worst CB we have because Sahko is the best, Ilori is VERY promising, Kolo has been solid his whole career. and Lovren can still make it. Skrtel has been here since 2007 and he's getting worse by the season to the point of being benched by a semi retired Jaime Carragher in his final season. Again, use your eyes and stop watch his highlight reel filled with last ditch tackles because if he was that good with great positioning and awareness, he wouldn't be making them. Ever seen Ramos, Varane, Fonte, Hyppia, Agger (when they were here) make such tackles? My point exactly

Toure was certainly not worse than skrtel when played at centreback in the 13/14 season,sadly this season he barely got a chance and was thrown in at rightback a la besiktas.
Sakho is a brilliant ball playing defender who looks for the pass,is composed under pressure, talks,reads passes and organises. Granted his heading is not up to scratch but he's better than skrtel.

10 Jul 2015 23:13:46
Toure always looks like his arse is on fire, Lovren has been the worst Liverpool centre back I've seen since Nicky Tanner and Sakho has had a couple of towering performances in 2 years and can't stay fit for more than half a dozen games it seems. So like I say, Skrtel for all his faults, is our most reliable CB and it pains me to say it.

10 Jul 2015 23:55:45
Please enlighten us to the arse on fire comment?

Ha ha Bob. It means he runs around as though his backside is in flames!

Like a cartoon character, running in every direction at once.
