Mascherano is so like Roy Keane.

[JPK]

The way he plays.How he tackles,how he puts the opposition under pressure,how he makes space and makes the game look so easy.
How he keeps it simple and he plays beyond his years.
He is top class.We seriously are spoiled for choice in midfield.
Lucas looks very tasty too.He is a Brazilian International and can only get better playing with the other four.

[Joe King]

He doesn't wife bash therefore Chief is better!

Mascherano is the best holding midfielder in the World and to think that we can afford to bench him sometimes just tells everyone that we have the best midfield in the world.

I think for the first time in a good few years we actually have 5 or 6 world class players in the team.....rather then 1 or 2 as has been for awhile now

[Gazzla]

Mascherano isn't a complete **** like Keane

Mascher isn't really a goal threat though so I don't see much of a comparison with Keane to be honest.

When was Keane a goal threat? He was busy bullying Beckham and referees

Took the words out of my mouth, apart from Beckham

Although you are occasionally inclined to mildly hyperbolic statements dude, on this occasion I couldn't agree more. Mascherano is the complete defensive midfielder, and is genuinely world class.

Keane was one of the best players in the world and was a fantastic captain

and a ****ing tosspot

He will probably be that in a few years time.

Playing Mascherano gives Rafa the option to use the other central midfielder higher up the pitch.

Mascherano is the key both for our defense and attack.

He scored 33 goals for Manure and 63 career goals. The comparison with Keane does not stand up. I am talking purely football and not personality traits.
