He's young but he's already had a serious knee injury if I'm not mistaken. I'll give him till christamas before making a decision on him.
Thats what i thought too, he is pretty similar to Riise from the past few games that i had seen. Powerful left foot, plenty of pace but too 1 dimensional with the running. Still waiting for him to make an impact, although im starting to miss kewell.

I also am starting to miss Kewell (luckily he may be back for the derby 
so we may have a repeat of THAT goal). For me he will the 1st choice LW simply because of the form he showed last season and he knows the Premier League. I really hope speedy can do the business as well though because a great team needs a great squad and we waited so long to question him after 4 games

Give him a chance, he's only been here 5 minutes. He'll come good.

kewell is good, but he won't be better, and he's an injury prone
mark still lotsa space to explore, and he works harder than kewell IMO, and also more pacy
kewell when being at his best is better, but he's rarely being at his best
so i choose gonzales

Hello liverpool fans!
I'm from chile so i've seen Mark playing for a while now, and I just want to say that you have yet to see the best of him. His teammates need to "use" him in the right way, though. He wont be really dangerous if he has to dribble too much..
anyways, i just noticed my soccer vocabulary is not long enough to tell you more about him ahahha

He wasn't at his best today but he did have one bursting run that showed a good deal of promise. He picked up the ball around the halfway line with a West Ham player in pursuit and looking odds on to track him back and then Gonzales turned on the jets and glided away.
More of that, young Mark, and less passing the ball straight to opponents in your own half, if you please!

I haven't seen enough of Mark to make a judgement, he is showing signs that he will be a good player for us, but I'm not getting carried, they are just signs at the moment. It will be interesting to see who will get more games out of Mark and a fully fit Harry Kewell.

I remember watching Mark Gonzales play against Madrid last season. That performance really opened my eyes, he is a class act. It will be interesting to see him in 3-4 months, when he has had time to get used to the Preimership.

I've seen Mark play in Universidad Catolica, Albacete and Sociedad. In my opinion he's been kind of lackluster in Liverpool. He played pretty good against Maccabi Haifa and Lincoln City, but other than that, he hasn't impressed me too much. Mark CAN do better than that. But I think he will get used to the premiership in a few months time.
For now though, Kewell should be in the starting 11, no doubt. And this is coming from a chilean BTW.

Gonzalez looks really nervous on the ball at present ... I think he wants to impress so much its affecting his game, Give him a month to settle in and we'll have a world beater on our hands!
