You can call Stevie for a lot of things, but overrated isn't one of them. Without doubt one of the best players the premier league will ever see.

Having another great season isn't he. I'd love to see him at another club. He's influential at Liverpool there is no doubt and he can put in some dynamic performances. But stick him in at Barcelona and would he be up to it? It'd be interesting to see.

I just don't get how Benitez can still insist Liverpool are getting better.

Liverpool aren't going to be seeded in the Europa League apparantly. How the mightly have fallen.If they aren't seeded, one wonders who is

Cheers for the insult.

On a more positive note Dossena played much better than what you come to expect from the average Italian. There was nothing on todays game but defeat still hurts like hell.

Without Fernando Torres we're nothing but a mid table team, playing mid table style football e.g. no spark, no technical passing, no speed in the passing, no creativity = nothing!!

What saddens me the most is that Man U can sign some unknown frenchman for 3 million (Obertan) and he shows more skill and abillity to set up a goal (vs Wolfsburg) than i've seen ANY Liverpool Fc Midfielder do this season.

The same can be said of almost any player when you take them away from their side, what an idiotic comment to make. Would Xavi be the same player playing for Liverpool that he is at Barcelona playing in la liga? Would Messi be the same player he is playing for Chelsea instead of Barcelona? I doubt it, it doesn't make him a poorer player because of that.

Gerrard's season has been poor by his own world class standards, he's had a few injuries and the team hasn't settled so it's easy to see why he's not been as good, but we aren't getting better. Benitez has said some very strange things in the media lately, even I'm baffled.

Probs not but he talks cack time after time.

I wouldn't call the following "Average"

Gerrard
Torres
Agger
Carra
Reina
Johnson
Benny
Masha
Aquilani

Jamie Carragher is not the player he was, infact he's been nothing but absolutely shocking this season.

Heres a question for you, how many of our best 11 would get into either Man U, Chelsea or Arsenals best 11 ?

The only CLASS players at Liverpool are Mascherano, Reina, Gerrard and Torres. That is all.

Re: More Football Chat : Wed Dec 09, 2009 10:08 pm  

Johnson's the best right back in the league.

Arsenal wanted Aquilani not long ago

Chelsea came in for Johnson in the summer

Carra is not the player he was but he would still get in most teams in the prem

Probably Juve for a start.

Arsenal wanted Aqualini years ago ? So that makes him a great player NOW ? I cant knock Aqualini as the lad needs games but serious leg injuries can easily hamper a players career, just because Arsenal wanted him years ago (when injury free) means absolutely nothing at all!

The amount of shockingly average players at our club, well outweigh the decent players mate and you no it!

Infact our league and Champions league position shows it.
