The College Dropout Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Carragher put in some fantastic performances for L'pool when they had those 5 or so season when they did very well in that competition. Just as much as he and John Terry are over-rated in the media. They are under-rated in some sectors. For example, John Terry is slow and brutish but he is a good footballer who is comfortable with the ball at his feet. I would say that fans that actually go to matches, love those types of defenders. Armchair pundits - not so much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Carragher was a utility defender that was given a position (cb) he excelled in maybe a little too late. Terry is a fantastic premier league defender, he just doesn't suit European or international football as well. Rio and Woodgate (and even King tbh) were just class defenders, plonk them in any league/tournament and they would do equally well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incognito Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Terry is a poor man's Tony Adams tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Terry is a poor man's Tony Adams tbh. Pretty much spot on although I think Adams was a far better international player, that might be an era thing though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 In this very moment I'd prefer to watch Arsenal with Suarez than for Suarez to leave the Premier league. I imagine my stance will change massively after about 20 minutes of his first match at Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine my stance will change massively after about 20 minutes of his first match at Arsenal. I really can't make up my mind about the Suarez thing. On the one hand, he's a total cunt so hopefully people will learn to hate Arsenal a bit more, it will piss off Liverpool no end and he's missing a few games. On the other, he's really good and I don't want good players at Arsenal, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think about the fact they are spending £40m on a player who everyone hates and is likely to be suspended a hell of a lot. They could spend the money better elsewhere imo so if they are going to spend it this is probably the best scenario for you lot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Hate the formation talk on the forum. Especially because we have never played a 4-3-3 with Pardew. I like to talk tactics but the constant formations being put up is tiresome Its more about trying to explain positions than actual formations, its just a lot easier to portray what i'm trying to say in formations than in a paragraph of words. We won't be playing 433 this season anyway that much is obvious and i have accepted it, which is why when i talk about it i only talk about a 442 or 4231 because that's what we are going to see whether we like it or not.

TaylorJ_01 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 You say that, but do you not enjoy a bit of controversy? Obviously he's a cunt. However, I can't pretend all the chaos didn't make for interesting discussion. I have the same feeling about goal-line technology but, having been on the losing end of it with us a few times, I'm for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy controversy if it's fairly normal within the game, but I hate people acting like cunts. Diving, whinging, racisming. Spoils MOTD most weeks IMO, hate the guy so much.

Froggy Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Aye you like a bit of entertainment, plus he's one of the best players in the World. I only want him out of the country when he's doing damage to us with his ability, the cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I just don't enjoy watching him at all. His amazing ability actually makes him worse IMO, because he has no reason to act like such a twat. Anyway, moving on... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 There's not a redeemable aspect about his pitch-persona. He's not "Scarface" type bad guy. Not Cantona bad guy. He's just the bad guy. Literally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Just seen the Balotelli thread being bumped, he was a controversial knob head you could still enjoy. Suarez is just a straight out cunt whose face you would happily jump on. Imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
