Player Valuation: £100m
Lol'ing at them saying they have a better midfield, henderson, lucas and gerrard are a dreadful combo and so one paced its embarrassing. Arteta played the same role as Lucas on sat and showed everyone why Lucas is a bog standard CM who can sit and do nothing else, Arteta did that and started moves and passed the ball positively, Barry also does a better job than Lucas and is stronger, McCarthy can more than match Horrenderson's energy levels and is a better player and Barkley is light years ahead of the fossilised version of Gerrard. They have the advantage upfront and thats it, but Lukaku isnt bad is he, a better all round player than Sturridge, who showed his limitations on Saturday when he's not on a purple patch.
lucas is one of the worst premier league players, no doubt about it.
i know he's a kind of gibson player, where only the teams supporters really see just what they do and how well they do it. But they've been on the TV so much in the last few years that i've seen plenty of him and actually watched what he does with interest seeing as they rate him so highly. but he literally does nothing. Not once have i noticed him bar the fouls he makes and the amount of attacks that glide past him.
he's utterly terrible.
