KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum players not good enough

absolute rubbish merv - ajax were desperate to get rid of babel and couldnt believe their luck when we wanted him for a reason - he is [oops] ..... absolute dogshit

skrtel has always looked dodgy and rash .... never saw him as first choice and i think he has shown that he isn't good enough to be a back up

agger is just injury prone - if that can be sorted he is certainly good enough

riera is hard to judge with him never getting a run in the side

degen has pace and gets forward and back well - if he gets decent coaching he could be good enough

the rest i agree with though

sorry trepie, righy now I don't agree with anything.
maybe we need to sack everyone (manager, manager's staff, yanks & players)and start from scratch

true but what will u prefer.. a babel,a voronin,a dossena,a kuyt OR

10-15 million quids or whatever the combined money of these players to sign a nino or a johnson a silva????

agree treps,degen is certainly better of the whole lot of crap we have..can be a backup of johnson anyday

Exactly what sort of idiot, let alone a highly paid manager of a recently great football club, has Lucas Leiva as the first name on his team sheet? When you think of the legends that led us to glory in the past, it's even more laughable. Yet week in week out the useless clown who can't shoot, score, head, pass creatively, or do anything remotely positive is on the pitch. And who else would spend around £20 million on a player whose career has been blighted by injury in a league played at half the pace and with a fraction of the physical contact? I said at the time Aquilani would be a flop and unfortunately I'm already being proved right. Only dedicated Europhiles had even heard of the guy before he signed. It's Houllier all over again

looking back on my post it appears i say babel has proven himself err slight mistake there. as for degen im only going by whats ahead of him in the team/squad but maybe rafa got one wrong didnt see enough of him to rate him to be honest.

if only m8, if only we could

Half of this squad are not fit to pull on a red shirt! Lucas, insua, babel, ngog etc. Not Liverpool players and never will be. Can't believe Lucas still gets a start, he puts in medioca performances at best, and rafa still opts to pick him, probably cause he has no one else. They don't realise what it means to be playing for lfc!!

players not good enough? all of them apart from gerrard,torres and reina

Little if anything wrong about your post Merv. The world and his wife knows Babel possesses a major attitude problem but has done a lot more for us than Lucas Leiva and at least a dozen dross players signed under Rafa. Not that it's difficult... I still see some benefit in keeping him, although precious little and depreciating by the week. Degen has taken some potentially unfair flak but an alleged professional sportsman who is injured 51 weeks a year surely can't expect anything else! Rafa's team selection, personal favourites and absence of tactical awareness is laughable and he must go NOW.
