Lucas is an awful player,I've said it before.I cant find the thread.He is fuc,king dire,terrible!,I dont like his hair..he runs about the pitch after 5 minutes of play looking like a coked up rockstar with no record deal

You are unquestionabley one of the saddest little men I've ever had any communication with in my life...

That however...

Was sheer genius.

You sad little man you Barry

It was good though

Lots of animosity on here... for the newbie - who hates whom?

Lets just say i hate Hicks and Gillette with Moores and Parry running third and fourth in the relay

Who will drop the baton first:

gonna copy and paste my comment on the match thread regarding babel's not looking like a striker... 


anyway to toffehaters reply on my comment on babel... yes I think babel is not a striker... because he had gilt-edged chances which HAD to be put away there's no doubt about it...peter crouch would've put them away... I remember him having MORE than 2 chances in the whole game... one was early in the first half... kuyt gave him a good pass... he did very very well with his first touch turning the marseille defender and all of a sudden he was one on one with the keeper and the keeper was still behind... with the whole goal to choose from, what did he do? It seemed to me like he closed his eyes and whacked the ball so hard it went to the stands... another one is where later on in the second half reira attacked down the left and sent in a dangerous cross... benayoun and marseille defender went for the the ball and it spilt out to babel... alone close range he blasted the ball again... hitting the keeper... another one was also a goalmouthscramble... he could've slipped the ball under the keeper towards the near post but again he blasted the ball... IF you consider this as a striker's finishing, then i must say I don't like strikers who just try to blast the ball without an intent, I like strikers who finish the ball into the net intelligently like Torres or Owen. Not to say the rest of his performance was bad... but he still blows hot and cold for me... and I don't like the look of his finishing skills...

Well first of I did watch the game so i know the chances in fact I watched game 3 times now.

2nd of all the 2nd chance you speak of with benny he couldn't score that keep made up to much ground and got hand in way if he had hit the ball softer his foot would have taken longer to reacht he ball and keep would have had time to grab the ball.

As for you not liking strikers who hit ball with power , since when has it been down to a pans personal pref , how the hell out players hit the ball.

I mean wtf You wanna tell the player how to run next or you don't like how they move foot to the right when they do step overs maybe you like them to move the ball to the left before.

Or maybe you don't like they cross the ball to flat you want more air , basicly they play how they play end of story.

As long as he carrys on to improve I could care how he plays its his style , I personal think his style will be very effective once he nails it.

So the chance from Rieira's cross he couldn't have done better? He couldn't have opened his body up? He couldn't have slotted it? He couldn't have took another touch or sold the keeper a dummy? He couldn't have adjusted his body position?

He done the only thing possible did he?

Absoloute rubbish.

He missed a sitter and thats the end of it.

dont think anyone hates anyone want - im still pretty new - there just seems to be the odd poster who only posts negative stuff about liverpool , insults anyone who has the cheek to disagree with his opinion and claim to be the most knowledgable person on here .

Is negative stuff frowned upon? I can't be arsed if people whinge when you're not clapping and bouncing up and down all the time.

I can be pretty critical... the manager makes some really weird decisions and selects some genuinely limited players at times.

I better watch my step I guess!

nowt wrong with being critical mate - we all are i guess in some ways - just some are over critical and will slag off certain players even failing to see the good they are doing at the time.

Just like most message forums Kuyt is number scapegoat and it looks like jucas and babel are via for who comes a distant second and third

Oh good, question marks of varying sizes over all of those players for me... not failing to see the good at all, just not building play that is "Ok" at best into some divine reason to pick them.


Their "good" simply isn't enough in the case of Kuyt and possibly Lucas, in my view.

Nevermind, I'll steer clear then...

It fine to critize players and think this that and the other i think the problem occurs when people just have a certain blind hatred for a player and no matter what he does will get slagged off - Kuyt being the prime example . the guy isnt world class neither is he as as what people make out - he is a just a decent squad player who continues to come up with the goods for us. He prb shouldnt be starting every game for us but at the moment we have no better to replace him .

Lucas so far hasnt really lived up to his potential but he does have a bility just not sure if the prem is right for him .

Babel got bags of talent and ability just needs to channel it better and be more consistent with it .

[Fo Dne]

1. I think you all have metal health problems do you all forget he is 20 years old jesus what more you want a pre packaged player who bangs in 30 a season and does back flips , well he does that already.

2. What you got to remeber is i Don't remember gerrard being any more consistent at that age nor any other player I ever seen really you ain't got a clue real fans you might say.

3. I doubt most of you don't understand the game from a players angle .

4. Things I see in babel are when he gets conisistent is he will always be a goal threat , be able to run at players , plays smart 1 , 2s , very strong on ball and be able to play any where in the final 3rd of pitch.( remind you of any one)

5. All that at 20 is not a bad start since he has got 12 years left in his career in his prime I really think the lad is not doing so bad.

6. Ronaldo didn't really do well his first season at the manc's and started to play like this in his secound season look how he turned out.

7. Gerrard took 2 ish season to start to look conisistent , Its very rare for  player to start to perform int he prem in his first year.

8. Torres remember was 23 when he come and suprised us all but liek I said its rare and you need exp behind you.

1. Fowler 18, Owen 17, Rooney 16, Cole 16, Gerrard 18, Carragher 18, Ferdinand 18, Scholes 18, Butt 19, Neville 19, Beckham 19...

etc etc etc... All under 20 and regulars. Age doesn't make a player good. If they can't trap a bag of cement at 20 years old, they aren't going to be able to do it at 23. Players don't gain attributes they don't have, never have and never will. If they did then the likes of Sissoko, Babel and any other big strong and fast player would all be untouchable. The fact is, they aren't.

You can't make diamonds out of .

2. Are you having a laugh? "What you have to remember is you don't remember"? Absoloute classic. Gerrard was consistent enough to be counted as one of our best players pretty much as soon as he broke through.

3. You mean like you do?

4. He's a limited goal threat yes, better than average in this department but not exceptional. He is good at running into players instead of past them. He's very good at losing the ball aswell. His ability to play a one two is not there, its your imagination. He doesn't know how to give the ball and get it back, you've been playing to much pro evo. Strong on the ball yes, I'll give you that, what use is that though if you never play the right pass?

5. Whats his age got to do with anything? He's not good enough. End of story.

6. Ronaldo was a good player from day who needed fine tuning, he then turned into a goal machine who ripped poor teams to shreds every single week and offered a goal threat against anyone. Babel doesn't do this, not even close, any team who can defend usually copes with Babel fairly easily.

7. Rubbish.

8. Comparing Babel and Torres... What a joke... good one.
