KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Glad Joe Allen didnt start

Even when Joe was apparently at his best, I couldn't for the life of me see why we paid £15m for him. What does he do that spearing couldn't do? or Poulsen?

Knee jerk car

How do you rate Hendo after the last couple of games?

spearing isnt sadly liverpool standard but he was great against everton last season and we should give him a bit of respect for that. on the other hand he probably earns 15k a week so fack him

i believe Jay Spearing is better than JA. JS remind me of Danny Murphy. Hope everyone have not forget him. His command in the middle is superb, great passer except his he was not quick enough.
Unlike JA (I know he isnt a defensive player) but given him as a professional player should know what to do when he was told to play as a defensive midfielder. is that right?

i believe JA has been given starting role some many time. As we all aware he's becoming a loophole. i'm not anti him but i do get frustrated when he lose the ball easily. Even SG would feel the same. Wonder what BR would think?

I hope you are including yourself in that.

Danny Murphy can pass a ball, Spearing cannot. The bald head is as close as Spearing comes to Murphy

True, Allen is a better player than Spearing.

I don't see it myself. There's nothing between the 2 of them - they're just on the field to make up the numbers.
