Injury Status - Return Dates

If Gerrard's playing deep, then it would be much better to replace Lucas with Allen.


Cissokho is easily worse than Djimi Traore, who could at least put in some tackles with his ridiculously long legs.

Both terrible but i have never seen a player freeze like a rabbit in headlights like Djimi used to, accident waiting to happen every time the ball was near him, its still staggering to think he played for us in a CL final.

Yes, you're very wise. I'm 12. So be nice.

Ha. I think the thread has definitely thrown up a lot worse defenders in our history than Cissokho though, don't you think?

Djimi was at the club for 7 years! Frightening. He was a 'watch through your fingers' player.

He just can't, he just can't, he just can't control his feet

I honestly can't remember us having a shitter player in that position!
You know when a defender stands a couple of metres away from an attacker, like Neymar for example, that's not doing anything with the ball, not even touching it, but you can't really blame the defender for doing that, as one flick of the ball could put that attacker straight through due to his skills and speed?
Well, Cissokho did that against Charlie fucking Adam. What was even more embarrassing than that, if that's even possible, is when Adam skinned him.
He is atrocious. Djimi was miles better.
But I'm 12 so be nice.

7 years, that is mad, always remember Thommo bigging him up a lot.

Zidane would have been proud of that

What are you on about. Djimi ws fucking magnificent ! Never a dull moment.

I think there's a lot of exaggeration here regarding Djimi. I mean he was bad, but he's far from being our worst defender.
No one here has for example mentioned all those last ditch tackles he made.

That block in Istanbul alone should be enough for him to avoid that label.
