I really don't understand this hate towards traore, he wasn't talented but still was a decent player for us and he has also won the champions league. suck on that.
he was the worst player to play for us. i dont hate him, i just dislike houllier for playing him weekin week out. i was a nervous reck everytime he got the ball, i was scared he would fall over and lose the ball.
Traore was absolutely lamentable
Nothing against the bloke personally - he seemed a fairly inoffensive fellow and was hard working but in terms of talent he was one the least effective players i can remember playing for Liverpool
I remember one game playing left back in the UEFA cup when Gerrard had to track back and take the ball from him because whenever he got it he lost possession
To be fair to him he was better at centre back - but still waaay too gaffe prone to have anywhere near a squad with big trophy aspirations
And Houllier called him the new DeSaiily!!
As a left back he was considerably worst than Konchesky - and that's saying something
