KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Jose Enrique – the weak link

Crap or not, we're top of the league

Shíte! Forgot that!

Now we've got nothing to discuss!

Nice weather today isn't it?

I'm sure you'll find that Enroque lost his man, allowed hin to drift in front of Gerrard & the ball was headed over Gerrard, nothing Stevie could have done.

I might be at odds with you all but I like Enrique

Yes he does make mistakes but he has talent

I like him too Stan & certainly don't think he is 'the weak link'. However, Jose has been poor lately & I don't think it should go unaddressed.

I thought he was at his best last season when he was playing in midfield (or was it as forward left winger in a 4-3-3?), and he didn't have to defend that much.

As a fullback I really don't think he is consistent enough.

Over all my concern for him stems from:
1) Loses the ball far too often
2) Can't defend/mark a player properly

These 2 points keep putting him in situations where he cost us goals and games IMO.

All the good work he does in forward position means nothing if you can't defend,needs sorting or its back to Toon land for Enrique.

As in cartoon?

Am totally with you on this Stan. with all the shortcomings we've had in other areas (midfield), I find it strange that he has been singled out. In fact Until this thread, I'd never even thought he had put a foot wrong, When I see him, I see a player bombing forward trying to make things happen offensively. he is a joy to watch going forward. I guess I've not scrutinized his overall contribution. Will pay more attention to his performance next time.. And he is certainly NOT our weakest link surely?

Isn't it funny how we all watch the same game but have completely different view on some players. I've always had a problem with defenders that Matt too many mistakes, I cringe every time they get the ball.
