KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum some good news at last......

interesting that Lucas cannot pass, tackle or cross. The others must be crap then as he beat every Liverpool player in the number of succesful tackle and passes last season(opta). came 5th in the prem actually. problem is too many want to blame last season on the 3 youngest team players -lucas, Insua and Ngog. when in fact the senior players were the let down.

hmm,stats cannot always be trusted,pepe looks like a sh1t keeper by stats but that is not correct.

He has the best stats because he passes sideways or back. Stats only show that he completed a pass from point A to B, not that it was a completely useless one. The Liverpool players to make it to the ACTIM index for fouls,Yellow Cards are Lucas and Masch, not for assists not for goals scored. As a midfielder you are supposed to create opportunities, see the game 4-5 plays ahead, Riqueleme would whoop his @ss even today.
Have you seen play a diagonal ball across the pitch or a through ball for that matter. He is always hiding on the pitch, he got enough chances last season to not stamp his authority but at least show a glimpse of his talent. He is just not suited for this league.

sounds just like masch actually. cant tackle only fouls lol paul scoles wanna be

Too much chance for LUCAS last season. AQUA got much much more less chance than him but we still can see the light from him clearly. ALONSO also can shine under Rafa. For me its enough to evaluate this guy not good enough for Premier League. Lets him go at reasonable price (apologized for LUCAS supporter).

Can't understand some fans they rip into lucas last year not to mention guy playing out of place trying his best his own fans on his back 24/7 yet most lick gerrards ass when he did jack [oops] all season. Really need to wake up lucas was no messi but he sure did dig deep even when he made silly mistakes his head was n't down like some and moaning like a girl, give him so credit huge loss if he goes(one best youngester before he come liverpool his development has been held back playing defensive mid)

nteresting that Lucas cannot pass, tackle or cross. The others must be crap then as he beat every Liverpool player in the number of succesful tackle and passes last season(opta). came 5th in the prem actually. problem is too many want to blame last season on the 3 youngest team players -lucas, Insua and Ngog. when in fact the senior players were the let down.

Well said

where does it say Lucas should be the creating driving force in the team? Masch created nothing last year as well but got nowhere near the stick Lucas gets. Based on your criteria we should be looking to hang Gerrad as he was both Captain and midfield creater and did neither last year. Lucas mentatlly is one of our strongest players, and should be after the grief he gets. He is also one of the most rated amongst the LFC team, I would say one more year to kick on. If not we will still get more than we paid. Everyone is too quick to get rid, the lad is just looking decent.

I don't think we should hang any player i just pointing out if people want to abuse players start with the worst of them and gerrard was by far one of worst players world cup proved that i sick of this crap people say playing out of position. WORLD CLASS PLAYERS can play in team and any position (please don't reply back stupid comments like goal keeper for strike what, i mean is midfield should be able to adept to play along the whole of mid depending on the teams tactics and formation)
