Let's not forget he had a great season for villa playing RIGHT midfield. But in typical Liverpool fashion we ship him back over to the left.

HIs natural position is the left. He's played both here.

I care about his best position and it seems obvious to me that's the Right. He's always been an average player imo, until last season where he excelled being played predominantly right.

Are you joking?

He is left footed and we signed him because we haven't had a proper left winger since Barnes days!

That KD has repeatedly let him play on the right side for LFC hasn't helped a bit. He's been useless wherever he's been poppin' up!

I remember when I first saw Downing in action at Anfield. It was against Valencia in August. He was playing in the left, and boy he made a few nice runs cutting in just before the by line and delivering some crosses too.

I said to myself and my friends next to me: What a player. Now we'll be rockin' again!

How did it pan out then? Pathetic!

Either he's just so totally out of form it is untrue or he's mentally instable and can't handle the demands at a big club (well, we're supposed to be big anyway and have big salary players at hand - never mind delivering on the pitch though!)...

He is a left winger, the only reason Villa played him right because Young was better on the left and they occasionally switched sides but he is a out and out left winger.

Sorry I have to break that silence now.....He is [oops] terrible!

He is most definitely Aston Villa (mid table) class. There is a reason why no other big 6 club had no desires for him for years and especially at the eye-watering fee paid!

He is just not liverpool class, a far worse thought is our loved club is becoming his class! discuss....

p.s. He has definitely been the worst of the British trio brought in under Kenny!



im of the same opinion BUT,

if his 2 or 3 shots that hit the woodwork had gone in and the 7 or 8 chances he has put on a plate for some people had come to goals, he would be a totally diff player and would we be argueing the point if his stats said

3 goals 6/7 assists???

probably the reason IF is the biggest word in the footballing language!!

I wonder whether Tomkins still thinks Downing is "Stanley Devastating"?
