6. Rarely joins in attacks.
7. Keeps looking for offside when he should be sprinting back

Traore on the left.

I always thought Traore on the left was bad enough. But now it seems that every game Hyppia and Carragher are working overtime to cover the a**es of these 2 idiots.

A few seasons ago, Liverpool boast the best defence in the league with Carragher, Henchoz, Hyppia and Babbel.
Just look at us now.

I believe these 2 idiots are gonna costs Liverpool a place in the Champions League if the problems are not addressed.

YOU TALK SH!T3  :;):

To be fair, as i said, i think he makes some half decent points, just in a sh!t£ way.

Traore is currently looking like the player that we were told about when he first came over.  At the moment he is keeping things simple and is looking good and adds pace to the back line.

As for Josemi, I think people are writing him off far too early.  He definately needs to calm down though and he is committing himself far too easily at the moment.  I hope Rafa can change his game because the guy isnt lacking commitment that is for sure.

Josemi gets out of position quite often and because of that he gets outrunned by average players who then either score or cross the ball to someone who will score[i.e. against Palace,Blackburn].

I am not writing him off but for the time being if we continue to play him we will conceed more goals. He looked very solid at begining but ever since the game against Chelsea he's been poor.

I agree that the main problem is Josemi gets caught out of position, he is a great player apart from that cos he can tackle we and passes well too :)

Everytime he has raisen his arm for an offside he was outrunned, he needs to stop doing that.

I know, he could be a great player (like earlier in the season) if he could just get rid of the couple of faults he has picked up :(

Quality player he is though. :)

:laugh:

Vastly over rated like I said before.

Did you watch him against arsenal ???

His positioning was shocking and decision making was very poor as usual.

He is nowhere near good enough for us.

Smith to Shankly:My thigh is a bit sore,but I think I could play.
Shankly to Fagan:Tell him,Joe.He has got no chance of playing.
Smith to Fagan:Tell him to sod off.It is not his leg,it's mine.
Shankly to Smith:Oh no son.You are wrong,son.It is not your leg.
It is Liverpool Football Club's leg.

Infact, he joins in attacks so rarely it's worth mentioning twice!
