So it is a coincidence that he has been the one of the best if not the best tackler in the league year in year out the last few years? Yeah, it must be a coincidence. What is the reason to why he get injured so often? The answer is that he put his body on the line every game. He gets injured so often because he make so many tackles and gets involved in so many physical battles and he win most of them.
 
Fucking hell. Forget Net Hate or Net Insanity, you have a man who's more in love with Lucas than his bird - he's the Messiah.

Yah, that's fair ... Positionally, he was average on Thursday (despite some really good blocks, he was sitting too deep often time.

Dunno if it ever happens but I feel like Klopp needs to sit down with Sakho in front of a TV and gently explain what he did wrong.

Him and Moreno are basically in front of two of the attacking Dortmund players ... What do you see wrong sir?

What is wrong? When Lovren steps up Sakho and Moreno should done the same to put the Dortmund players offside. Lovren should by the way never stepped up. he should have covered his space because Lucas is already dealing with the Dortmund player.

The most important point is to force the opposition players out wide and we didn't do that. Aubameyang had a free run into our box. Clyne didn't had a chance to stop that because he was on the wrong side of him.

The pictures also don't show when Lucas first make contact with Schmelzer. It shows after he made the contact. It is a big difference. When he first make contact Schmelzer still controls the ball.

Don't watch the game today, for your own sake.

No he doesn't - but I'm going to stop bothering. There's a better chance of peace in the Middle East or the end of net hate than you ever seeing any fault in Lucas. I hope he stays here next year so we can still keep you as a fan ...

I want one that anticipates everything and never has to make a tackle in his entire career.

The Alan Hansen of defensive midfielders. Actually I don't remember Didi making tackles. Not claiming he didn't, but he was king at interceptions - cutting out passes, taking up brilliant positions - rather than sliding into tackles.
 
How about we take one or CB's and put in the DM position. One with the most passing ability? You won't get Can's SKill going forward but we have the spoiler at least. Which of our immobile CB's would you put in there. Martin. Dejan, Kolo (Laughs), Sakho?
 
Well Lucas delivered a masterclass, won his physical battle with King, and singlehandedly won us the game today.

We're talking about the game against Dortmund, where Lucas was the DM. Despite his performance today, let's keep that in post match thread and not here.

I was talking about a replacement for Can, so I thought that was the place to put in, in the Can thread. But so be it. Sir, yes sir.

Oh ... a replacement for Can we don't have (Milner maybe the closest bet but I'm not sure he's disciplined enough). Lucas is disciplined enough, but he's not capable enough physically.

Didi made TONS of 'professional' fouls. He'd take a yellow for the team by sliding in and stopping the momentum.
 
Didi's particular skill was forcing his opponent into fouling him. He got loads of free kicks from that "crumple."
 
Not sure if I'm remembering this correctly or just making it up, but when Didi gave away a foul, it was usually at or around the centre circle area. He knew when to tap an opponent's ankle early enough so it didn't become a problem later.

By the way, was it the Didi Crumble or Didi Crumple? I've always thought it was the former, as he'd go down like he'd broken into bits, but I've seen it called the latter for a few times in SCM now.
