John Arne Riise

[marcgerard]

Riise is the better defensive option. He's lost form though and I'm sure Aurelio will be given a Run now untill Neill joins us.

It will be interesting to see how Aurelio does at LB as I'm sure most teams will Target him

Teams target Riise already. It might be that being dropped will be the making of Riise, but at present he is not worth his place.

[SouthAfricaRed]

I wouldn't blame them... he can't defend for ****.

We could see this formation at the back

----------------Reina
-------Carragher/Hyypia/Agger
Finnan--------------------------Aurelio

I still stand by what I said yesterday, sell the carrot head. He is living on his past glory goal against Barthez.
His free kicks no longer hit the target & he has no competition for his position which means he can afford to under perform and keep his spot. Madness.

[Nicey]

He has not been that bad for me, he has been class for many years in my opinion, he has earned a few off performances if indeed he has been off the pace

I think we already have solved our left back position. Insua will play there week in week out next season IMO.

Whats your opinion based on? Things you've read in the papers? Have you seen him play? He's 17 and from the other side of the planet

I struggle to see how you could possibly come to that conclusion.

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

Re Riise. Well lets be fair he's a left midfielder playing at left back.

I think he is liable to get complacient at times.
happened when he first joined, after a great oppening season he relaxed into a comfort zone, i think he is in that zone again after some spectacular goals.

From people that have seen him play.

[ARIMAN]

Time to be dropped.

Went wrong after the Charity shield

[Svennis]

riise's odd thunderbolt hides what is quite a limited player

That is true. Riise is very limited player. Technically probably the worst player in our team. His passing is inaccurate, crosses usually hit to the first defender, he's not very intelligent footballer, he wastes too many good attacks, because of his senseless need to try long range shot in every time he has a chance to get his picture to the papers, when pass would have been a better option.

Defensively he's not good either.

I would sell him, if someone would offer more than £4M.
