It is all about opinions and personally I think you are giving our Stewie more credit than he deserves. Gerrard, Carragher, Suarez, Henderson, Coutinho and Sturridge are the key reasons why we have improved since the turn of the year. Downing has played a part but it has been minimal compared to the other players I have mentioned. He has improved from a pathetically low base and that is all I will give him credit for. It doesn't impress me when the manager has to go as far as telling him he can fk off before he actually starts to make an effort and contribute.

better players than downing have been told to shift their @rse into gear or their out, ian rush for one.
im not saying downing has contributed as much as suarez, what i am saying is that downing has been a steady eddie, he`s not ripped the league to shreds but he hasnt been a liability either. there are area`s of our side that are costing us games and points like the center of our defence and the center of our midfield.
i just find it odd when people start ripping downing to shreds when he`s done nothing wrong, yes maybe in some peoples opinion he doesnt do enough but it`s not like he leaves the fullback exposed like suso was doing to wisdom, or it`s not as if he constantly gives the ball away like sterling was doing, i think he`s doing okay and imo `okay` doesnt warrant the type of stick he`s getting from some in here.

You seem to be agreeing with me that he is average at best. I won't easily forget the utter sh.ite he played under Kenny and a few steady Eddie performances won't bring on a sudden case of amnesia.

Not sure about comparing a young 19 year old Rush with Downing's first fifteen months at Liverpool. Bloomin eck and you have a go at me for comparing Heighway and Downing. Suggest you read this as a memory jogger because I don't think Paisley ver told him that he could go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Rush

It's been emotional

But you haven't pointed where I made these claims you suggest ?

The reason why is because I clearly didnt - no one has

Go and have a read back and you will see

So maybe just once please get the facts correct before posting accusations.

All I have ever said is he has played his part and a decent solid job for us - never said anything about being "key"

Thank you for clearing that up

Yep he did - fully deserved as well.

Great goal line clearance
