Macherano quality you having a laugh there are'nt you, the most limited player pound for pound in our history, he could'nt even get a game in Barca's midfield he was that poor they had to find a place for him at centre half he was that bad and to justify the outlay.

Just a few things:

1) mascherano was sh!t hot
2) his fee was £18m which INCLUDED his wages for the duration of the contract, making his actual transfer fee about £8m.
3) whether you or I think we are overloaded in midfield is irrelevant. BR cleary sees that our midfield personnel aren't capable of doing what he needs them to do so he is buying players that can.

He done the donkey work that was his job , limited would apply to poulson not Mascherano,any how it's done now and Spearing is the way forward.

Mascherano wouldn't fit into Rodgers system. He doesn't fit into Barca's, hence the reason why they use his fantastic defensive capabilities in defence rather than midfield. They prefer Busquets in midfield. Masch is no Xabi on the ball, he never was for us, his passing is nowhere near as good, he is a destroyer, and Rodgers doesn't use destroyers.

Lucas is our man.

With Joe Allen and Gerrard apart of a 3.

Next please.

thats why i will never fathom why we replaced a better so called destroyer in Momo with a player costing 15 million pound more who did the same job but not as effectively, quite baffling really.

Sissoko was a brilliant player and if he had been pushed to push forward, we had a Yaya Toure player in the making.

But he wasn't, he was held back to defend.

unfortunately sustained a terrible eye injury which shattered his confidence, think he lost a bit after that, our best team since the Roy Evans one with Collymore and Fowler involved Momo, the one which won the F.A.Cup against West Ham
