He hasn't made too many mistakes (unlike Skrtel). He has played as a defensive midfielder, ably too.. Of course there were games when he was rubbish and in most games he was pretty average. All I can ask from a cheapish young central midfielder is to be able to step up and be counted when called upon. He has certainly done that. He is not a creative player but that is not his fault, that's why we spent 18 million pounds on Aquilani. If we struggled to create goals, it is very easy to blame it on Lucas, but why not the other 4 attacking players? I don't really care much for Lucas really. If Aquilani gets himself fit, he'll soon drop to the bench, but if say he got injured again, we know Lucas will step up and won't fuck up (again, unlike Skrtel).

Skrtel cost us points, he's not good enough to start for us, I'd sooner rid Skrtel as for me he's a horrible player, who has no business being at Liverpool.

Okay, so he is not an attacking or creative player. Not his fault as you say. However, given that you have just said he would be an 'excellent' back up to Aquilani and then named Aquilani as our creative player then doesn't this make Lucas actually a pretty shit back up to him?

Sissoko was a very, very effective player for a season and was part of a succesful side. I'd have him back over Lucas in a shot.

Mmmmm, certainly looks a bit suspect all right but as there is no Lucas there I will give SO the benefit of the doubt. That said his 3 playes chosen would probably only add about £5 to our transfer kitty.

The correct answer is Babel, Dossena and Lucas which would add about £14m to our transfer kitty.

Why keep Babel then?
 
We had to choose 3 players...
I'd rather keep Babel yes, hard choice but I think there is still something to take from him.

Ah fuck off Lech...That is absolute horseshit!!
 
GK: Reina, Cavalieri
RB: Johnson, Degen
CB: Carra, Agger, Skrtel, Zorba
LB: Insua, Aurelio, Dossena
RM: Kuyt, Yossi
CM: Masher, Aquilani, Lucas, Gerrard
LM: Riera, Babel
ST: Torres, N'Gog, Voronin

If you bin off the players with one foot out the door (Dossena, Babel, Voronin) as well as those most would like to see the back of (Zorba, Lucas, Degen), it really shows how small our squad is - we'd be left with 16 senior players.

I knew our squad was thin but oddly until I just wrote that out now, I didn't realize quite how thin.

Why's that?
Its a bit pointless selling players who have no value whatsoever.
 
Degen is fine as a back up right back and will raise no money anyway. People are largely judging him on being injured, shall we sell Alberto too?

(I know he's not as good as Aquilani by the way)
 
I wasn't judging him on his injuries, but on the fact that he didn't look much of a player to me on the admittedly few occasions I saw him before he arrived, and (significantly) on the reaction of the Dortmund fans - a mixture of relief and amazement - when we signed him.

That said, his most recent appearances were better than I'd have expected. I'm not yet convinced he's up to the standard we need, and I'd love to be able to sign better, but (not least after Kelly's display last time out) I don't see RB as our top priority.
 
If Degen was fit then he'd be a good backup. He's a decent player. Sadly he's never fit and is totally unreliable, which makes him a bloody awful backup.

If we were selling 3 players in January he'd be one I'd choose alongside 2 others who'd command more money, merely because we'd get him off the wage bill and he'd be no loss at all.
