That's not the way to do it


I'd rather a defender defend with intensity than let them turn and get a shot away from inside the area


That was not intensity, he was kicking around

Lucas kicked Lamela 5 times before he went to ground, therefore there was 5 lots of contact, it was a clear penalty and pure stupidity from Lucas.

The Sturridge one was a penalty as it was a clear pull back, however unless you go to ground referees will very rarely point to the spot.

I agree, Lucas cannot be used defensively, he used to give away silly free kicks in midfield, now he gives away too many free kicks near our box/penalties, he's been a good servant for Liverpool, but he should be a last resort now and not in defence.
