jonjo played very well from what i saw. liverpool had a few with 1st team experience (jonjo, cole, ngog and poulsen), the only man utd name i recognised was obertan.
a couple of the liverpool youngsters caught my eye, tom ince and steve irwin.
I went on a tour of Anfield yesterday with work, and the tour guide told me Jonjo was 45 minutes late for the Braga match - beeping his horn behind him. Nice to see the whiteboard left up in the dressing room for the reserves yesterday with Jonjo playing one of 2 holding midfield roles. I hope he does well for them.
It was mentioned when he came on that he was from Charlton's academy.
He looked totally comfortable and even one one of Liverpool's better players in the last half hour. Struggled to get into the game first 10 but then Kenny moved him into the middle he flourished. Has a bright future and would be gobsmacked if Liverpool loaned him out. He has impressed Daglish so much he is now way ahead of Cole and streets ahead of Poulson for a place.
Next year is likely to be another learning/bit player if gerrard is fit and liverpool buy Ashley Young, Charlie Adams or someone. Must be really hoping Liverpool can grab a Euro spot will give him more game opportunities.
Not next year but in 3 years could well a regular for Liverpool and in 4 for England. Excited for him but still more than a tinge of regret that he wasnt able to do it for us.
On a side note, if Suarez carries on playing like he has so far, I can see him being compared to Ronnie and Messi in potential ability, the boy is top top notch. I was always surprised none of the superpowers of football took him on earlier to be honest.
Oh and Maxi Rodriguez, where the hell have you been the past 18 months?!

jonjo was very impressive, unlike his tattoos !!
Did you see United had a better turn out at a reserve game than we did at Walsall!

Definitely a new PL star in the making.
