Not really sure where that goofy graph on Traore came from but a little context.

 

This season Zaha has averaged 5.2 successful dribbles in the league. Traore 5. Some fella named Saint Maximin has 4.5.

 

Traore is dispossessed or loses the ball due to a bad touch 4 times a game. He completes 23 passes a game.

Never heard of the cunt.

You didn't take a step back and think about it, did you. You seem like an absolute prick, so I'm glad you're leaving it at that. 

Oh, that's pleasant.

 

Enjoy spending your days defending your wrong stances to the death by writing essays full of stuff people aren't actually arguing and then insulting them.

Nathaniel Clyne will return to training in January and Liverpool will try sell him to recoup a transfer fee. His contract expires in the summer but Liverpool want to sell in January for a cut price deal. (Sky Sports) https://t.co/E8Ry5bTImV

Newcastle United are keen on signing Adam Lallana in January. However, Lallana has plenty of offers on the table and is likely to wait until the summer when his contract expires to decide his future. [The Telegraph] https://t.co/J3ea9dyAIx

We'd be fucking nuts to jib off anyone who can kick a ball.

We have 2 players that are nearly as fast as Traore. They both have better control and awareness than him, yet they don't appear on this list. Could it be Klopp doesn't want players dribbling?

 

Sadio and Robbo controlled him so easily the other night he had to switch side's after 10 minutes and even then he got nothing from Trent. He's a dangerous player, there is no doubt anyone that fast as a place somewhere, it just won't ever be here.

How is it working out for you, Bobby, you little shit. Stuck in the Youth League, I see. So, no better off after all the histrionics.

Bobby Duncan, Fiorentina, Serie A

Anyone who hadn't heard of Bobby Duncan - cousin of football legend Steven Gerrard - soon had once the news of his messy departure from Liverpool became public knowledge.

 

The 18-year-old was determined to leave Anfield and his boyhood club in order to get senior team playing time, and begin to make his impression on the football world.

 

Duncan is wasting no time in getting stuck in, having scored three goals in four games for the club's academy in the Italian youth league (Primavera 1) - including a 30-yard screamer against Roma.

 

The Liverpudlian is yet to be handed a senior team call-up alongside the likes of Franck Ribery and Federico Chiesa, but was  promoted into Paul Simpson's England Under 19 squad.

Also, what do people make of Kalvin Phillips? He looks like a player ripe for the picking prior to promotion. You can never really tell if they can make the step up but he seems to have the raw ability.

I suppose it says something about him though that we had to put two men on him to contain him. Klopp marked him as their most dangerous player before the game.

“At Middlesbrough he was exceptional, but somebody had to give him the right information," Klopp told Sky Sports.

"A big, big talent. You would never have thought he is that young, but he is still very young, and now he has found it.

"It was always clear it would happen one day, and now it has. Good for Wolves!

"He is really dangerous. In a big space Jamie Vardy is difficult to defend, but I would say Traore is even more difficult to defend because his speed is exceptional."
