Firstly Cheyrou, what do you lot think now? Personally since i saw the Lazio game at the start of pre-season last season i thought he was superb, he didn't look like a bad pllayer playing well, he looked like a great player in average form to be honest. He looked like the "creative spark" the team had been missing.
I think recently he's started to show the fans glimpses of whats going to come. IE the goals, the brilliantly timed run for the header in which if you watch again the way he stops on the edge of the box to gain 5 yards of space is brilliant, also the little interchange before his first goal, the ball and run in the chelsea game from which he scored.He still looks horribley short on confidence though but if he keeps doing what he's doing in terms of effort i'm hopefull this is something which will start to change. Also the goals won't do no harm at all. The fact he has more goals already than Hamann and Gerrard also speaks volumes for his potential imo.
Hopefully he can start to produce on a regular basis and become the player i (and obviously Gerard Houllier) think he can become.
Steve Finnan. I don't care what anybody says he's impressing me more every time i see him. His running off the ball is intelligent, his first touch is sublime, he's two footed, fairly quick, reads the game very well and not affraid to get stuck in. I think technically he is probably one of our most gifted players. I still rate Carr as the better alround player but i think Finnan seems to be improving EVERY match and will soon overtake him.
He reminds me alot of Rob Jones although maybe not as quick he seems technically a bit better than Jones but imo they are VERY similar. The only difference is Finnan looks like he may actually score a goal one day
