I think you are wrong Trepie, the lad is rusty, he never gets a game.

Babel coulda been one of the best strikers in Europe had he been played and coached well.

bollox - he is crap in training too - its lack of effort that is his problem - he decided he had enough talent to not need to work at it and he will never achieve his potential

Lets stop comforting ourselves that Babel is a right fit for Liverpool. He had his chance. He blew it with bad attitude and a misplaced focus. He also cant stop the ball without losing control of it. That for me sums up Babel. What a bloody mistake

He cost a lot of money and for me this is a real strange buy for Rafa cause he is a manager that looks at a players attitude and mental strength above most other attributes of which Babel has neither.

He became complacent and he feels he has already reached the big time, the salary, the club, he has given up.

He has had enough chances, he hasnt taken them, that Lyon goal is a glimpse of his potential.

I would liek to see him start against Birmingham and lets see f he builds from the lyon game.

I very much doubt it tbh Joe. That goal was a fluke, a good one though granted.
The look on his face after scoring sumned up his attitude imo.He couldn't give a toss.

i was about to agree with you then joe till you then spoilt it all by suggesting he gets yet another chance! any player not prepared to put the effort in during training doesn't deserve another chance (i would put plessis in the same bracket too)

Hardly a fluke, he done the same against Chelsea.

well fluke or not, on current player availability i think he should get a start for few games, we could use him for full 90 minutes on monday and let him work his butt off before he goes to holland international. lol

So we milk him dry and let him go. instead of resting him for the dutch advantage. lol

or we could just get rid of the useless tit who couldn't trap a bag of cement

and it was a fluke - he has lots of shots most go miles away from the goal - two goals in that is hardly proof he is quality!!

true, he can't control the ball at all....i think we hyped him up when he arrived and we thought he was better than he really is. i remember reports coming from holland at the time saying he was very inconsistent during his time at ajax, still me (and many others) thought we had signed one of europes finest talents.....in my opinion we should try and get rid of him as soon as possible.
