Apart from a few brief flourishes like last season ( and he blew that ) he can't have done that well in the league or Liverpool would have done better than they have. He is a great player but is a long way from the best ever Premiership player, IMHO of course.  |
How do you judge assists Jim, final pass before a goal or the defence splitting pass that sets up the opportunity for that pass? He also played with some of the worst strikers the league has ever seen baros diouf Dundee mellor just of the top of my head, I'm sure denphone will be able to add to the list of abysmal strikers
