Once again who is comparing them - just saying they have all contributed to the season so far - and what exactly has reira done that makes him a step up from players like lucas and kuyt and yossi

Well, he's certainly contributed more in attack, held onto the ball better and most important of all given Liverppol some sorely needed width on their Left wing.

I think it's clear to anyone with eyes that Riera (warts'n'all) is a better player in general than Kuyt, Benayoon or Lucas. He strengthens the squad considerably, where I feel the others don't add much at all.

Yet has contributed less goals from wide than kuyt and assists and think around the same as yossi - yeah reira is a decent player but he is no better than kuyt or yossi and in terms of talent lucas - they are all players on the same level for us and there is nothing wrong with that .

Your words below
"reira has contributed no more or less than lucas or kuyt or yossi this season which is exactly what i was saying"

Now maybe thats not exactly comparing them but its still 100% wrong mate.
Riera has been head and shoulders above all three,granted two of them have probably not had as many minutes,but saying that if you feel Riera has contributed no more than any of them then again you are simply wrong.
Put it this way..how do you think we'd be sitting in the EPL now had we not signed Riera and been stuck with shi'ttty Babel on the left flank?Of course its a hypothetical question as we will never know the answer but a lot of our attacks would have broken down before they came to anything.
One of Rieras best assets is that he rarely looses the ball,I'd love a right footer of his calibre for the other side..we'd be a hell of a lot closer to the team we want to be if we had one!

Cause the fella is a class above all three,its that simple!

and you could say the same with some of yossis goals and kuyts goals that we woldnt be sitting at the top of the table hence why they have all contributed towards where we are - no more or less than each other

Im not talking about goals,im talking about overall contribution to the team!
And Rieras has been a hell of a lot more than any of those you mentioned.Im not saying they have not contributed,they have but Riera has been more of a factor in our success so far than any of them.If you cant see that from watching football...give up!

You always do this with other posters,type balls then when your told your wrong you go onto other things.WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT GOALS HERE OK,it cracks me up reading it and now im sorry I mentioned anything!lol
LISTEN FELLA
You said this
"reira has contributed no more or less than lucas or kuyt or yossi this season which is exactly what i was saying"
Thats the bit i picked up on,the reason being its absolute sh'ite.You cant argue that because everyone knows its balls!

Sometimes its just best to say OK rather than argue when you are wrong!

its only wrong in your opinion - that doesnt make it balls or wrong either - its my opinion and until reira shows more its the one im sticking with - im sorry but i havent seen how reira shows us anymore than those other players - he has had plenty games where he has been non existant .he is decent and that is it .
