Yeah I agree with kyro7. Carra is one of the most overated players in the premier league ever.

He's not been as good as recent seasons, but Carra was seriously underrated at his best..

Anyway, lalalalae article.. Just picking on the tiny little things.. Bet you could pick on 13 of every other manager in the world.. Pathetic journalism really..

He's getting older, slower, worse.

Do they have to do an article for every team in the world's blunders though to criticise Liverpool? I don't think any journalist thinks only Liverpool have blunders.

How is Aquilani doing by the way, I honestly haven't seen him play yet.

I know its your opinion, but in just about everybody else's, Carragher is a joke.

Played 15 odd minutes against Arsenal in the Carling Cup, 15 odd minutes for the reserves a week before.

Shouldn't be long now before he starts. Possibly ready for Birmingham.

You might well see him start his first match against City after the international break.

vesiliy7 · 06-11-2009, 07:29 PM

I do think you could make a list like this for any manager out there really.

3. BENITEZ'S refusal to bring back goalscoring legend Michael Owen. He's now with despised rivals Manchester United.

4. SELLING Peter Crouch to Pompey last year. The England hitman had a decent strike record - 54 goals in 132 appearances.

5. SELECTING Andriy Voronin at Lyon on Wednesday. He was an embarrassment.

6. THE failure to buy a proven second striker. Ryan Babel and Co aren't up to it.

7. LIVERPOOL seem more worried about losing than winning - like last weekend's 3-1 defeat at Fulham.

8. LOSING No 2 Paco Ayesteran after a petty row.

9. BUYING Robbie Keane for £20m from Spurs, showing little faith before selling him back for an £8m loss.

10. LEAVING strike star Torres on the bench for 60 minutes in the stalemate at Stoke last season.

11. WHEN goals were needed in the 2007 Euro final he had Crouch and Craig Bellamy on the bench.

12. THAT Fergie rant. Rafa was right to question the United boss' influence last season but the timing could not have been worse.

13. TAKING off Yossi Benayoun in the home clash against Lyon. Even the loyal Kop booed.

13 baffling Beni blunders | The Sun |Sport|Football

IMO, what a rubbish article, anyone agree with any of these "blunders"?!

EDIT : Okay, I agree with the Alonso one but then again, why keep a player that wants to leave..

And for these reasons, I say he wont be employed this time nex year.... Some Scousers disagree...

Playing Skrtel as RB is better than playing Fletcher as RB (which our man Fergie did against Burnley.... and we lost)
