Rib facture sidelines Agger | Liverpool Football Club News, Fixtures, Results, Gossip
Liverpool defender Daniel Agger could be out for up to four weeks after fracturing a rib in Sunday's 4-0 Barclays Premier League defeat at Tottenham.Evidently Daglish is down-playing the injury. Regardless, Liverpool can't continue to play center-backs out wide. None of Carragher, Skrtel or Agger have the pace for the role as was shown so starkly this weekend.
The Denmark international sustained the injury when he fell heavily in the first half and had to be substituted before half-time.
However, this doesn't have to be an issue. Even with Glen Johnson and Martin Kelly injured (hamstrings), Daglish still has youngsters John Flanagan and Jack Robinson able to play the position. And he hasn't been shy about using them in the past.
At home to Wolves this weekend, I would hope that he plays Flanagan at right back. That would be great for fantasy managers as well as Flanagan is listed at 3.96 in the Y! game. Right now I have Boyata (@Arsenal) as an enabler and while I can't move to Flanagan, I would definitely explore the option.
So why did he stop short of halfway down on his right arm? Burning fantasy question right there.

ReplyDeleteWith the low wages we're paying these guys to play you should be impressed that he had enough money to get as much tattoo as he did.
