Lucas had a slow start because he was being compared to Masche AND Alonso.

Also, the media still call him a flop. ._.

Maybe watch LFC and then talk about Leiva. 'cause atm, you're making yourself look like a fool.

Also :lol!: again at RM being "under rated" and Leiva being "over rated" HAHAHA

It was decided a while back that Lucas was rubbish. Then he got a little better and the media and commentators went nuts and the supporters followed them. LOL at my "Lucas comment" all you want but imo I wouldn't want him anywhere near my team, not even the bench.

On the other hand, Raul Meireles (who I feel is the real underrated player here) can, as Babun put it, start for any club.


@ artmorte, I think that is a fair comment to make. Also I have no doubt he will be a success at Chelsea.

Decided a while back.Did it pass any jury voting? Rolling Eyes

Lucas had a better year for us last year than Masch had in 2008-09 season.U wont dominate the midfields of Chelsea City United by being average.

Meireles wont start for Liverpool because if isnt anywhere near Gerrard as a player.If u think otherwise then u certainly are taking crazy pills Laughing

Leiva should of replaced Mascherano. Not the other way around in replacing Alonso. Would of made a killer partnership.

Lucas - Most successful tackles last season.

Lucas - Most successful tackles so far this season.

Lucas - Liverpool's Player of the Season last year.

Lucas - Overrated?

I watch LFC fairly regularly, what I have seen is him evolve from rubbish (as in costs you the game) to average (just barely hangs on to the midfield with the aid of Adam and Henderson working like dogs)

I will leave it to difference of opinion then, I like Liverpool, I enjoy watching them. Lucas, I have no idea what he is doing in that team. If you want a DM, go get a proper one. Lucas looks like someone who has been pushed into an anchor role and does not want to be there.

I'm sure Khedira is 10x better than Leiva then? :coffee:

Btw, Leiva has covered the most ground this year for LFC so far.

We had a 8m bid rejected and the BBC reported we signed him for 12m. If you read their report, notice it doesn't say "a fee reported to be around 12m", it just says 12m.

He originally was a CM who has been converted into a DM. I think everyone will agree his first season was crap. But to call him rubbish now is just stupid. His break up play, tackles and pass completion rate have been phenomenal. If anything, it just goes to show how overrated a number of the 'well known' DMs are. For a good 2 seasons he has always shown up against the big teams putting in close to an 85% average pass completion rate as well as a good tackle success rate. (Don't have the exact percentage)

Says undisclosed everywhere else. scratch

Also, why would we reject 15m just to accept 12? ._.

If you supposedly rejected a 15m bid then how much do you think you got for him?

20m??

He put in a transfer request, so we would of just settled for 15.

Why do you keep bringing up 20?

A second bid was made and rejected, it's why the transfer request was written.

Perhaps... just maybe... we originally rejected the 15m bid and then, after he put the request in, we accepted it?

^
That's my belief too. Everyplayer we wanted to ship out, didn't even feature on the bench all season...likes of Cole, Aqua, Ngog and Poulsen I am talking about. However Merieles played in all games when he was fit and obviously plan was to keep him, but when a player hands in transfer request, we sell the since we only want players who want to play for LFC and no one is bigger than the club.

Is that 3m difference really worth arguing about?

For the record, the only reports I've read stated 12m.

That's what I was thinking, but, hey, it was going back and forth.

Meireles last season played in 4 positions for us:

RW under Roy- He was atrocious there
CM under Roy- better than RW, but still not effective enough
AM under Kenny- His best spell, scored goals and influential..but then Suarez came and of course he is a couple of leagues higher than Raul in AM position
LW under Kenny- after Gerrard's injury, Spearing came to CM, and Raul outwide, that he was good, making late runs, good off the ball movement, but of course not a natural wide player.

then Downing is of course a much more natural and better LW, and Suarez being AM..he wasn't a guaranteed starter, though of course alternative to either players, and all that considering Gerrard was injured.

Also, Merieles lost the entire pre-season through injury, and had no match fitness, that's why he sat on the bench in the league ,and Kenny said I'll use Exeter game to give him fitness, but he got injured after 20 minutes and taken off.

Though his body language in his last 2 games was very strange. From giving the finger vs Arsenal, to yelling at everyone after first goal vs Arsenal, to pushing the medical staff when they told him he has to come off vs Exeter due to his collar bone....
