Eds do you think we gave up too quickly on Iago Aspas? There is no question he is a talented player and is showing it in La Liga this season and for Spain. He didn't get much chances to be fair to him because Suarez and Sturridge were so good. I think with patience he could of went onto to be a great player for us. Although that's not what I said to the telly watching his corner haha.

{Ed002's Note - He was better than Rodgers realised.}

Agree3 Disagree0

He was severely lacking in physicality. He is a fighter in la liga, but that attribute was never going to work for him in the BPL where the intensity and pace is much more brutal. Not to mention he was signed the very season the SAS ran riot. If he had the signed the following season, he would have gotten more opportunities after Suarez left.

Some players certainly suit certain leagues better than others as well, it might just be that the Spanish league is an excellent fit for Aspas' skill set. Even if he was to come back tomorrow I'm not sure he'd have the goal-scoring record he enjoys for Celta.

{Ed001's Note - he never settled well in England either. He had never wanted to play for anyone but Celta.}

If he scores a hat trick tonight, I may begin to think about forgiving him for THAT corner.
I felt sorry for the lad though at Liverpool as he just couldn't seem to adapt to the English game. He certainly has the ability but the physicality just wasn't there at all.

Too lightweight
Let's hope h can do the business today.

If he scores a hat trick tonigh he will instantly become an lfc legend regardless of his playin time at the club.

I didn't know that but it's also a great point Ed - some players, when playing for their boyhood clubs, find something extra they just can't deliver for another side - Aspas certainly wouldn't be the only player to have this trait.

{Ed001's Note - he is a very good player though, he was just very unlucky really or he would have become a cult hero at the club, I think. He had the workrate and technique to be loved.}

"too lightweight", lol.

11 May 2017 20:51:51
too lightweight, and doubt very much he will score even one goal V United, never mind three .

Aspas is a beast of a player with great work ethic, attitude and is very talented (25 goals in all comps this season) . He is now in the Spain set up with Morata and Costa and should be on the bus to Russia next year. Him not making it at LFC changes nothing on that front.
