Three players worse than him in the starting XI today. Solid first half, poor 2nd.
Can I ask, which three players are you referring to? Glen Johnson, I got that one.
As I noted in the match thread, Coutinho and Gerrard.
Is there a reason why half of the posts about Lucas start out with "I like the guy, but..."What does liking him have to do with anything? I thought we were trying to win, not collect a team full of likeable blokes.Who cares if he is likeable or not. Suarez was a contemptible cannibal and he contributed about a thousand times more to our club than Lucas could ever dream of."Boss, we've scouted this new lad, he is pacy, excellent on the wing, has an eye for goal, tracks back and works hard for the team, and score 100 goals in his league last season.""Fine, fine, but does he hold the door open for old ladies???"
He shouldn't start for us. Not good enough. When Lallana and Markovic are back we'll go back to a 4-2-1-3 with Hendo, Gerrard, Can fighting for 2 spot, Coutinho as the "1" and Lallana, Studge, Sterling as front three.
I hope not. We don't need two sitting midfielders. Although Hendo can compensate with his energy.
Hendo gets around the pitch so it can be a 4-1-2-3 effectively.
If we're brutally honest not only is Lucas not good enough, but Stevie's just not mobile enough anymore to be a guaranteed starter game in and game out. Very few top teams have a midfielder who is stuck in the mud half the game. Yes he plays those fantastic long balls but that's pretty much all he's doing nowadays. I wouldn't mind seeing a midfield three of Can, Henderson plus one other at some point this season. Something like this:MignoletManquillo Skrtel Sakho MorenoCan HendersonSterling Coutinho MarkovicFalcao

Can we please stop talking about Falcao.it's not going to happen.
No Sturridge? You serious mate.
hey, we can dream, can't we?
Not according to your post.
The Lucas-Gerrard pair in BR's system was millions time proved it's don't work but BR still started them both yesterday why?I never know if it's marketing side trying to get bit more money from someone?
Tend to agree with the first line, don't know what you are on about in the second though?Love Lucas but Stevie needs the likes of the more mobile Hendo, Can and Allen around him.
but if not why started him ?
