KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Video: Is Xabi Prieto Good Enough?

Prieto looks like a great crosser of teh ball, has a trick or two, but has no pace, which for me is a must for a winger in the premier league

some of them crosses in that video would be perfect for Carrolls head. But he just hasn't got the pace

he is at his best when he is getting the ball in midfield and distributing. my problem with him is he tends to hold onto the ball too long. would be better than poulsen (who wouldn't) but i wouldn't break the bank for him. also watched them play on espn3 recently and he played as a forward and didn't have a big impact but maybe it was just a bad day.
