Liverpool FC

What exactly is Mario supposed to do if he has no decent supply of passes and crosses? He basically setup the Sterling by managing to bring the ball down and getting a shot in. Lucas isn't a problem either, he doesn't get forward or assist because that isn't his game, play him as a defensive midfielder and he'll sit in there and mop up nicely. He'll have a hard job though, that defence is ridiculously crap, does Rodgers do any work on defending during training sessions at all?

These problems have been there since last season, only difference is there's no Suarez scoring and assisting.
