Fernandez Suso (Liverpool > AC Milan)

Anyone else disappointed that Suso never got a run out today? Would've been nice for him to come on for Coutinho as a like for like change.

I have a feeling he won't be around come the end of the transfer window. Can see him being loaned out.

Really really disappointed. Can didn't play too well and we had the opportunity to try out Suso in that role, but he opted for Lucas :/ 

He has yet to sign a new contract, and I can't see it happening. I feel he might be part of the Moreno deal

There's NOWAY a football lover like Brendan who appreciates real technical ability would let Suso go permanently.

Chill, i think he may be put out on loan again which i am for the 456th time am against, however if it was to a premier league side it would make more sense than back out to La Liga because he has already been there and done that.

Suso in Can's role.
Eh, no.

Totally different jobs.

And we all thought Coutinho wasn't capable of that role, unsure of Gerrard as a defensive mid, and baffled by Sterling as a #10 etc. I personally think the role would be good for him, he's a good dribbler and passer, very composed on the ball and doesn't shy away from tracking back.

Anyway, I think Rodgers should've tested Suso out in the middle during pre season, but chose not to for whatever reason.

Can and Hendo are the ones to do the job in front of Gerrard. DM
After that Allen and, when fit again, Lallana.
Lucas played there last season.

Plenty of players ahead of Suso in the queue.

I don't think Can and Hendo are very good short passers of the ball. I think having that right balance and playing someone like Suso would help us keep possession better.

I still think Suso can do a job playing there. Just won't be as effective as Henderson in defending

sterling and coutinho work very hard for the team though. suso isn't one of those players who is part of the system, not yet anyway. BR doesn't need to give suso midfield time in preseason to know how he'll go because he already knows suso isn't up to it yet. he seems like a player who could come off the bench to have an impact in some games, in attack, but i could also see him not even make the bench some games. it'll be tough for him this season as it would be for borini.

I think he has everything to make it here and he can be a very useful player next season. He is lazy as Fabregas but he can be as good too.

the laziest player I have ever seen was Ray Kennedy he played the game in slow motion but what a player he was.I hope Suso gets close to him.

Ray Kennedy eh now that's a name I have not heard for a while and agree a great player in a great team.

I think BR needs to give him a chance and drop Coutinho for a game or two. Letting him go to AC Milan is a bad idea.

I thought Suso was excellent when he came on. He was positive and looked to either create something or shoot every time he was on the ball. Really changed the game for us as we were lacking in creativity all night.

I really hope he can start featuring in the league and not just having the odd cup run out.

The lads a real talent.

I'd like to see Suso start instead of Cou, I'd also like to see Lucas start instead of Stevie

Worked well in tight spaces, looked comfortable receiving and giving the ball in those situations.  One of a few players that actively looked to take possession,  Manquillo,  Sterling and Lallana being the others.

He should have started the match. Enough of him going out on loan. Time to use him more frequently. I thought he did ok.

It looks like Suso might be waiting his time out in order to leave to Milan on a free transfer. If he does not renew with us by Dec he is free to sign a pre contract with other teams. I believe that it is what Milan did to acquire Honda.

He did his job last night but by no means did he "prove Brendan wrong" or justify why he should be in the squad or even starting. He offers basically the same toolset as Coutinho (although not as good when Coutinho is on his game). Took his chances well so there's something to be said for that, but I'm not sure why everyone acts like he's some sort of messiah. Personally would rather have seen Ibe kept at the club and used in the first team as opposed to Suso.

Don't think anyone is saying he is the "messiah" just that surely he deserves to be given more of a chance than he is getting.

A run out from the bench in a league cup match isn't, in my opinion, a decent chance.

No one is saying he is a messiah, but he actually provided some end product whereas Lallana, Markovic, and Coutinho have all failed to do so thus far....

And was willing to have a crack from edge of 18 yard box.

Interesting to hear a lot of the local support getting behind him when he went up to take his pen.

Noticed that on the telly *Wool*.
Big support for the lad when he stepped up.

Suso took his goal (and penalties) very well. It was no surprise to me he came on and made a positive impact. Really hope a contract is signed and we use him this season. Good player to have in the squad.

He upped his game during pre-season and scored some nice goals, not been used up until near the end of the Boro game (poor choice on BR's behalf). Hopefully now he will be involved more!
