There are a dozen passes in that clip i posted that are world class and cut the opponents team to fucking pieces.
The ball he played down the line to set Suarez free in our first or second game of the season was as good as it gets.
He can pass plenty well enough going forward and in the opponents half.

lucas made a world class pass to gerrard v newcastle, that was one of the passes of the season. he needs to do that more often or make way for someone who will.
[/quote]He makes plenty PLENTY of great passes.
So summing up your thoughts on Lucas. You admit that he is one of the best tacklers and ball winning midfielders in the league? Well you should because he is. But that isnt enough for you. So you admit that he is one of the best passers in the league? Well you should, because he is. But that isnt enough for you. Not enough that he does his job in the team superbly. Better than all of his peers. You want him to do more going forward too. To ping 60 yard worldy balls every five minutes.
Let me tell you Neil, if he did that you would be saying that isnt enough. You'd want him on the end of the fuckers too.
Let me tell you this Neil. If the five attackers in our team did their job HALF as well HALF of the time as the five defenders do. We would be top of the league.

but our defenders (and lucas is a part of that seeing as he is an out and out holding midfielder) aren't doing their job either because we are giving away leads. where were we be if we could shut out the game after taking the lead?
[/quote]That simply isnt true. You are making up stats to suit your 'agenda' which is in no way a suprise to me.
Vs Stoke we didnt score. So did not conceed a lead
Vs Spurs we didnt score. So did not conceed a lead
Vs Swansea we didnt score. So did not conceed a lead
Vs United we conceeded when we were leading AFTER Lucas was substituted for Henderwank.
Vs Norwich we conceeded when we were leading and Lucas was SUSPENDED for that game.
In fact the ONLY game we have been leading and conceeded in when Lucas was playing was on the opening day of the season.
What!!? Say summin!!

s'land - took the lead and then gave away the lead - 2 points
norwich - took the lead and then gave away the lead - 2 points
manu - took the lead and then gave away the lead - 2 points

[/quote]OH MY GOD. Its like stealing ice cream off a spaztic.
