Completely agree with you. But in his defence - he's not a natural DM and he's done his best to adapt to such a demanding position. However it doesn't help when people blow smoke up his *rse and tell him he's amazing at it and then compare him to Pirlo.
nothing strange. At home they need to be open and play some sort of attacking footy. Whereas on the road - they have license to lockdown and hit on the counter.
I don't get it. Gerrard should be the most annoyed party by him having to play DM rather than CM. He should be in BR's office as we speak, telling him in no uncertain terms while taking advantage of other CMs being out: I want my old position back. I served us well in our title chase when Lucas got injured - it worked for a while whilst I wasn't being targeted. Now, please play me in my natural role. And Lucas in his.
Well seeing Lucas look like a total donkey in the oppositions half v west ham does lend credence to that view
Maybe he's a donkey playing in an unfamiliar position. Same as Gerrard being a donkey in DM. Horses for courses, right..., otherwise they're a safe bet to look like donkeys. Lucas feels probably quite annoyed and betrayed as well. And I am sure Gerrard would want to get back to his CM role, his bread and butter.
Well it was ability in movement, control and vision. He was yes out of position but it was still poor I've seen Lucas play his old game blessed sides but the pace of the game is just too much at prem level now so..... Like it or no(and it's no solution today or tomorrow) both Gerrard and Lucas are yesterday's men
