It was Petar 3.0 (or 4.0, I'm losing track) back for another wind-up sesh.

If he's in Bosnia can't you just take the risk that we're not killing off a massive potential Bosnian membership by banning all Bosnian IPs?

I had not seen his 'good' games but after today, he just isn't good enough wow. Could not do the some of the easiest things asked of him commited dumb foul after dumb foul gave the ball away numerous times just awful.

In my opinion he cost us the game today.

Lucas is a pathetic player. Absolute rubbish, it's got to the point where just seeing his puffy face on the pitch makes my blood boil

i wouldn't say he cost us the game today but I agreed on everything else. I had mentioned before he specializes in committing stupid unnecessory foul, slow jog and five yard pass. He is just flawed skill wise and doesn't matter where he plays as he is definitely, totally not good enough. Although it was Rafa who put him there but i just can't see him play anywhere (maybe GK as i haven't seen him play there yet

)

I suggested recently after Lucas's recent performances before today that he can play an important part in the second half of the season. I also said similar things about Benayoun! Today they were both awful and I think I might have been overly generous with my assessment !!!!!!!! Ffs

If you come on here, a Liverpool forum and insist on talking about obscure foreign players, don't be surprised if we haven't got their whole careers in our database. While you are lounging about on the beach watching Real Mallorca and listening to some dodgy Queen tribute band, we've got a league to win.

Now by all means join in and cheer us on, but if you are going to be so unpleasant about it then you can keep your support. Ola and goodnight.

I think this is contradictory, but what the hell, I´m human being and make mistakes.

Leiva is not good enough for Liverpool right now. He´s green, he needs 3 or 4 more years of experience to compete with a club as big as Liverpool.
I would give on loan him to another premiership team. he needs to mature as player and as person.

Lucas is rapidly becoming one of the worst players I have ever seen at Liverpool, today he was truly terrible, he provided no cover to the defence giving away numerous stupid free kicks and no assistance going forward and to be honest the title of this thread, "Why Lucas" really does just sum up everything. The worst thing about it though Is the fact he was that bad but yet still played the full 90 minutes.

I agree, stupid fouls, 5 yard passess followed by slow jogs. Last week in the first half v Preston Xabi was sprinting to make himself available to receive the ball but Lucas does not impose himself and waits for things to happen. When Xabi was replaced by Lucas the game drifted away from the Reds. We've seen the passes Lucas can make like the assist for Gerrard v Newcastle but the move was initiated by Stevies run, not by Lucas dictating the play.

Alex G is right he's not there yet, would send him out on loan to get some urgency in his game.

but this is what I don't get, if Rafa is such a genius why does he keep playing Lucas, or is Rafa maybe not a tactical genius after all?
I just know that Manure are now going to win later today and Rafa, and by extension the club and us fans, will end up looking like idiots, all because of his silly and unnecessary rant. :no

This is a melodromatic and extreme knee jerk reaction. He had a bad game but he's hardly the worst player to put on a liverpool shirt. Hell he's not even in the bottom three this year. He's young and still developing, any wonder he's inconsistent.

Have you seen Dossena, Plessis or Degen?

Normal service has resumed, I'm afraid. Very poor from the lad today and he makes Masch poorer whenever they play together.

He was poor alright but it wasn't even only down to him alone.. Noone playied well and even Reina had a shaky game.

by **whylongball?** » Sun Jan 11, 2009 10:02 am
