If Lucas had been a new signing without baggage from past seasons, had a different name, different head and hair, we would probably be raving about about him as we are doing with meireles.
If he keeps improving (people forget he's still only 23!), I'll be more than happy to keep him in the first team squad!

he is getting better and this will be an excellent time for him to have the chance to settle in his position. i can only see him getting better and better. more experience means reading the game better.

his form this year has been truly remarkable. he was possibly the worst liverpool player ever for nearly all his lfc career previous to this season. a testament of the good coaching roy is bringing to the club.
Still for all his good form I would still look to replace him , I think when we are under the cosh he doesn't have to ability to control games. an example would be stoke away this season,they were buzzing around us and lucas was poor ,giving the ball away under pressure. I think a meirlies parker combination would dominate the prem next year,but such is lucas's form that I wouldn't mind him being a squad player.
quiet a turn around. thanks roy Roy gets all the credit for Lucas' improvement this season. What about Johnson, koncheskey, poulsen and cole's pathetic performances? Guess Roy has to take the credit too?

His improvement especially alongside Meireles is good news for us and lets hope he can become better and better as he plays more games. It was good seeing him create some goals, something which he hasn't done enough of. Keep it up lad.

maxi,babel,sktrtel,ngog,meirles,lucas kuyt etc etc.koncheskey is a more able left back than we've had for a while.
and johnson has improved no end since roy gave it to him straight Johnson has only played a couple of matches since roy gave it to him a couple of weeks ago. Improved no end???

Lucas has at last gained confidence, unfortunately Roy is likely to shatter this in the months to come. Let's hope his confidence lasts longer then Roy's position. Very poor coach indeed.

Lucas has been improving every season, its got [oops] all to do with Roy that he is playing better its down to the lads ability and attitude that is.
emp, are you also saying hes getting the best out of babel, skrtel, ngog and kuyt?

Its pretty funny you included Kuyt in that bracket emp, last time I remember, Kuyt was getting atleast 10 goals a season under our previous manager and no im not a rafa fan, Kuyt has been poor lately and its maybe because of his injuries but to say he has been playing at his best under roy is just nonesense sorry i don't agree with that. Kuyt needs to score more goals. He even use to pop up with important goals there and there but now it has dried up. If we can get 15m in january i would definately sell him to get another good striker/winger.

The good thing about Hodgson is that he isn't restricting the players with tactics. The team got way too rigid under Rafa and that looks to have been put right. I'm still not sure that Roy is the man for the job past this season though.
I also think, and i'm not sure if its been said in here already, that the improvement is in some way down to Stevie and Nando not playing. The others are now making the right passes and not just trying to pick out SG and FT at all costs. People say that we are a 2 man team and maybe the rest of the team got that into their heads too?
