Neither, they are both rubbish.

 

Lucas is better than Poulsen but I would rather see Spearing or Shelvey than either of them.

 

At the moment our set up offers neither a passing game or an effective long ball approach. Hodgson really has to sort this out, we have a decent side if the players had a fuckin clue what the manager wants from them

I think if Poulsen can adapt to the pace of the league then we will have a good player for that position on our hands. I've saw glimpses (and i do mean glimpses) that make me believe he will come good for us

 

 

No. No power on Earth can stop Lucas.

 

He is the footballing equivalent of Robert Johnson. Without any of the ethereal talent.

 

There is no other explanation is there?

 

This cunt *must* have sold his soul to the devil, and swapped his eternal soul for a lifetime of footballing fortune. Look at the evidence:

 

* He's voted Brazil's young player of the year! Yes. THE BEST YOUNG PLAYER IN BRAZIL.

* He captains Gremio

* He is fortunate enough to be scouted by Macia for Benitez, a man so inept that I could send a video of me bouncing a ball off Stephen Hawking's fucking head and he'd give him a trial.

* He arrives at Liverpool and is shit. But because he's fucking Brazilian - how lucky was he to have been born there? He looks like he comes from Hull - every fuckwit fan in the country decides "there must be something there" and he coasts along invisible as the Best Midfield In The World play every week

* Benitez alienates one of his most crucial players, and replaces him with a crippled shithouse. Lucas plays regularly.

* He plays his usual game, which is shit, but then everyone else who would usually be 10 times better, are also playing shit, so he doesn't look quite as bad in comparison

* Benitez gets fired, which means that his greatest advocate in the club is gone. Surely now his time is up?

* Budgie has to sell Mascherano, and decides to replace him with possibly the world's worst "specialist" holding midfielder, who is so bad, some fans want to see...guess who? back in the team.

 

I swear to Christ, he will captain Liverpool one day at this rate.

 

He is being looked after by a great, and terrible and terrifying dark power. Nothing can stop Lucas.

 

OK, yeah, when he dies he will spend eternity revolving on a spit in the darkest, hottest circle of hell. But until that day, we will be the ones suffering.

Well, there's the ultimate seal of approval. A real guarantee of quality. Fucking great.

 

One of them is going to play.

 

If we're really lucky, both.

 

I'd like to see a three man holding midfield unit of Lucas, Poulsen and Spearing.

I was enjoying this post until you had to go and be totally disrespectable to our manager.

 

This needs to stop,its out of order.

Neither of them are good enough. At the moment I would favour whoever is least shit when they get the shirt, but then that is pretty unclear. In all seriousness, I might even favour Spearing or Shelvey ahead of both of them at the moment.

 

Shelvey is a top prospect who can pass the ball.

 

Give the lad a chance.

Why the fuck do we need a holding midfielder?

 

90% of our games are against dross. Can we not have 3 intelligent footballers who can drop and press when needed but actually pass the ball to a team mate?

 

Er, no.

Er, no.

 

I hate to mention Ingurland but Gerrard and Scholes are/were both attacking midfielders by nature.

 

They were the best England central midfield for ages. Both were attacking players who scored plenty of goals, but both had a brain. Unlike that fat prick in London.

 

I don't want to scare any fucker to death but you can actually play a midfield partnership without a holding or destroying midfielder.
