Lucas is only rated coz he's not quite as brick as everyone thought. Still not a midfielder worthy of a top 4 club. Khedira would walk into any top 4 starting XI
this, he was so fudgein brick when he first turned up that when he started putting in even half decent performances the contrast was huge, people have taken that change the wrong way. He's a very passable prem footballer now, that's it, no more.
the stats on Liverpool's win ratio last season with him in the side and without him are scewed because his replacement was jay fudging spearing !!!!
Modric or no modric their squad is still comfortably better then ours at this current moment in time.
Genuinely surprised Bale extended his stay.
Comfortably? Wouldnt say that.
All a matter of opinion but I reckon our squad is a bit stronger at the moment.
Without going into too much detail,our keeper and defence is better, their midfield is better, up top we are better.
They also have a lot of players over 30 or coming up to 30.
I don't think the squad is comfortably better than ours at all.
For a start Adebayor is not even their player and he was key for them last season. Modric is top class and so is Bale and they have had a much more consistent off field structure than us for the last 5 years which has allowed them to achieve on the pitch.
I would not dream of swapping Reina, Johnson, Enrique, Agger, Skrte, Lucasl for Friedel, Walker, Ekotu, Dawson, Kaboul, Parker.
I would not dream of swapping Suarez and Carroll for any of their forwards, not forgetting that they need to buy Adebayor if they want him this season.
Where we suffer is in midfield creativity and that is through one player and one player only - Modric. He makes them play and we have nobody who can do that in the same way he can and in the same way Scholes could do for United.
Sigurdson is not a replacement for him he is a replacement for Van Der Vaart who I think will also go. They need a top class midfield player if Modric goes and they are not easy to come by.
I read this and I find myself in complete agreement with your points. It's staggering that their squad has finished ahead of us for the last 3 years, and 17 points ahead of us in the season just gone. Stating the bleeding obvious but we really have under-achieved.

No way is this real, they are tacos but the club has far more tradtition and history than most other clubs especially Chelsea

That's funny but he's only on a wind up. If a professional footballer doesn't know who Liverpool is must be brain-dead.
