Don't think the Stones/Alcaraz combo works very well, perhaps too similar in style. Think both best paired with a defender who isn't as keen to get over the half way line eg Stones+Distin or Jags+Alcaraz.

Unless Distin plays I always think our CBs look shaky. We really need to find a replacement, he can't go on for ever.

Doesn't sound too good - I was out so didn't see the game. I know it's only pre-season but it seems like we played a lot of senior players and first team players and weren't exactly convincing.

I worry about Barry, he's a year older and now he has his final contract will he be able to maintain his level from last year. I have to be honest while I was delighted we got him last year I wasn't happy we resigned him. I hope I'll be proved wrong.

For our first game of the season and missing regular first teamers such as Jags/Baines/Barkley/Howard, plus Coleman only being on for a short while, thought we were pretty decent - especially in the first half. Barry didn't look great but he's experienced enough to know how best to build himself up for a season but on the positive side Gibson looked trim and played some lovely passes.

Thankfully Distin also looked in good shape so hopefully can stave off worrying too much about how we'll replace him for another year. Duffy looked much better on the ball than I expected.
 
It doesn't matter if player x didn't track back or player y was too slow retrieving the ball. All that matters is the players are working towards fitness. We all know they have ability, they aren't gonna throw themselves in like lunatics against Tranmere in a friendly!
 
We need [Poor language removed] signings just got back from that [Poor language removed] sort it out bill now you [Poor language removed] idiot I'm getting twitted by tranmere fans here.

Appreciate you abiding by the rules

Thanks
