I am new in this forum, but I haven´t read a word about Lucas Leiva.
Like Dirk is a player I would love in my team, Lucas is a player that I never ever will want in my team.
Rafa gave him so many chances... and we finished in a low possition.
From this forum I declare an anti Lucas fan.
Probably he is a good guy.. and maybe he would be a good player in the next years. But nowdays he is not ready for wearing the Liverpool´s shirt.
Sorry for my brutally honesty... but It is what I think.
Can't argue with that but in his defense raf did play him out of position and only twice played him in his rightful position.
In one game he got the penalty in the derby when ever Liverpool got puzzled to why rafa subbed Gerrard for him.
The second time he tore benfica a new hole, scored a goal, created another and was MOTM (man of the match).
