Lucas has not improved.

[Guest simon]

Where does this he's improved allot bollocks come from? He has always been how he is now. Just with Masch and Alonso noone noticed how good he was. Now they have gone he's the focus if attention and to people that makes him look like he's improved but the truth is if he has its not by much he's always been brilliant just ignored.

Jesus fucking Christ

[Trumo]

Henderson right now is showing the sort of tentative and indecisive nature that got a lot of fans railing against Lucas way back then. Also, that Lucas has been a regular since Alonso left goes a long way towards explaining why his game has - and it has - come on since then. Getting games week in week out helps build momentum and sharpens up any player. He has earned the right to that because he works his arse off every time.

[redsoxs]

Are player of the year last year!! how can you improve on that........

[Guest San Don]

Oh look. Another mongy thread.

[RobbieOR]

Come on Simon, for fuck sake.

[James Dean]

Haha.

[Guest davelfc]

Much like Pilkington this is getting boring now.

It also goes a long way to explaining why we've won fuck all, haven't ever got near a Top Two finish again and haven't played in the Champions League for two seasons.

No, the fact we were run into the ground by Hicks and Gillett goes a long way to explaining that.

Because the rest of them were firing on all cylinders, ready to leave a trail of devastation where once stood the opposition, only for all progress to grind to a halt at the feet of the Brazilian. That's me sold then.

[Duff Man]

Just so I can be first:

 

"you're WRONG, but you're funny!!"

 

"I don't agree, but I love you anyway!!!"

 

"it's bollocks, but it's CLASSIC Simon!!!!"

 

"hahahaha, you're mad you are!!!!!!!!"

 

Actually it's not funny it's just drivel. Utter fucking drivel.

[silverlining]

I don't about anyone else, but I'm sensing some "simon ennui" in Duff Man.

[Soup]

Is this Donald again.

[RedBrian84]

Zzzzzzzzzzzz....wha..? This again?

[Guest ShoePiss]

Simon will be fine, he just needs to wheel out a couple of gypo stories to pique Duff Man's interest I'm sure.

[Guest davelfc]

Totally agree.

[fin-bat]

I notice Lucas during games only when he makes a foul in front of our penalty box, which happens quite often. Others he is totally invisible to me, which is quite strange, but I guess everybody has their favorite players who they like to follow...

Spot on. Summed up the rest of the bollocks that normally follows a thread by the OP perfectly as well.

Isn't it a positive thread about Lucas though? Am I wrong in thinking people are viewing it as a negative thread?

There's an excuse ready and waiting for Lucas at all times.

 

"He's intimidated by Gerrard"

 

"He's settling in and he's still young. He was Young Player Of The Year in Brazil!"

 

"Hicks & Gillette"

 

"Benitez is telling him not to attack and is inhibiting his real game. He's not a DM, he's a box-to-box midfielder"

 

"No, wait he is a DM, but he needs a more offensive CM partner than Mascherano"

 

"He needs a more defensive CM partner than Gerrard/ Meireles/ Adam"

 

"He needs to play as a central three with two CM partners to "get the best out of him". One offensive. One defensive"

 

It's fucking beyond parody.

[Duff Man]

No, just a boring one because no matter what the title, or the content, it's only about one thing and it ain't Lucas or any of the other pretences used in his previous threads

[Guest ShoePiss]

Yeah I think you're wrong in thinking that. I would guess that people don't agree that Lucas hasn't improved his game since arriving here as a 20 year old.

[kalasoma]

I can't decide whether this is a Lucas appreciation thread. The header is a bit misleading. The player is both 'not improved' and yet 'brilliant'.

[Trumo]

And yet I haven't used any of your examples of ready-made excuses.
