Your favourite player's kryptonite

[Kevin D]

Sami is my favourite player. 

 

His ability to see danger, his heading ability, his leadership, his grace  - he was just everything I want in a Liverpool player.

 

To quote the great Section_31, Sami might have moved slow, but that's because Sami didn't have to move for anyone.

 

However this thread is for the player that your favourite used to consistently do badly against, year after year. Sam's kryptonite was Didier Drogba, unfortunately Drogba just had his number. I used to dread playing Chelsea for oh so many reasons, but seeing someone you adore just have no answers against a guy is gutting.

 

Who are your favourite player's, and which guy  did/do you hate for doing well against them?

Carragher/Henry

Torres and Vidic. Hold on, I think I've got this the wrong way round...

Yeah, definitely. 

 

Carragher was the best CB in Europe for 3 years(05-08) but whenever he was against Henry it was like when someone's older brother plays in your under 14s team.

I can't answer this because Hendo doesn't struggle against anyone.

Hendo’s kryptonite is his arch nemesis Jay Spearing on counterpoint detail. 

[aRdja]

Gerrard and Vieira.

[El Rojo]

Loris Karius and footballs.

Obviously not  my favourite player but De Gea, always tries to save with his feet and he's shit at his near post. Shoot high and for the near post lads.

 

Women goalies. Just shoot from anywhere. If it's on target, it's a goal.

Luis Suarez/Human Flesh

Ben Arfa: Simple carbohydrates and his temper.

[Red House]

Well, Stevie would be my all-time favourite but not sure he really had a kryptonite as such. Maybe Henry, given his tendency to backpass assist him.

Mario Balotelli/himself

Zidane/Calling his sister a brass.

Alberto Moreno, the football equivalent of the Scarecrow in the wizard of Oz

Rushie always seemed to struggle against Paul McGrath.
