KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Jay Spearing Vs Lucas Leiva

i agree with that completely drome - not so sure plessis is one i would consider myself though ..... i have to say i have not been impressed with him - there just seems to be something missing since he had a run in the first team then dropped back to the stiffs ...... maybe its his attitude that is lacking i don't know i just don't like what i see now and would be happy if we could sell him on personally

there doesn't seem to be a need for him with spearing chomping at the bit for a place. i'd have young scouser in the team ahead of a foreigner anyway. carra or gerrard would run through a brick wall for lfc. what we need is a new one coming through

anyone who thinks Pacheco is ready for first team football id deluded, he has a long way to go yet, there is no he had massive potential but he is not good enought for first team football yet,

The Leeds game was the first time I've seen Spearing play a full 90 minutes. He looked out of His depth for me, both physically and mentally.

Sorry to say it, but until Aqua Boy is ready, I'd stick with Lucas

i would have to say that right now they are both just average players

not deluded at all - he clearly needs first team footie if he is ever to achieve his potential ..... look at the strides rodwell has made for the bitters due to getting first team footie!!

Pacheco is obviously too small and lightweight yet for first team football, what he needs is regular reserve footbal and possible a place on the bench in the carling cup, this time next year yes he could possibly be ready for first team football, as for rodwell first he is phyically bigger and stonger than pacheco and secondly everton are not condenters do the league and champions league, pacheco may possible be ready for first team with everton but not liverpool he is not even close to it yet, nut in another year he should be

too small and lightweight?? that was the same excuse that was used to hold owen back and he didn't do too bad when given a chance did he?

can you not see a difference in class between owen and pancheco??
plas owen had lightening pace pacheco does not, honestly would you like too see pacheco playing first team football this season? next season yes when he is a year old and a year stronger, Spearing is another case, he should be given more games any time i have seen him he looks good, he is powerfull and a good passer of the ball, he reason he is not played more i reckon is becasue he is so small in the modern game that is a draw back

Too small and lightweight? What about Iniesta and Benayoun then? I'm not suggesting that he's at their level because he's no way near yet, (but i definitely think he could be in the future), but physically there's not a very big difference...

He's only 18 years old and there's plenty of time for him to develop but i definitely think he should be given the chance to play in the carling cup this season. He didn't even make it to the bench againt Leeds and i don't understand why...

The only way for youth players to take the step over to the first team is to let them play with the first team...You can't wait until they're 21 or 22, certainly not when you see the talent that players like Pacheco posseses...
