Arbeloa

[Dhav]

Yossi ain't a Liverpool standard player and shouldn't be starting games for us

I'd be happier if we got rid all together to be honest. Never been a fan of his, and now he's showing he's not up to playing for us

[Bari]

Back to his old ways tonight. I've said it before and i'll say it again...he's a dodgy customer.

[MrMichael]

Hmmmm, Yossi's not that bad. He's just one of those players who either has superb games or is rubbish, very little in between.

As for Arbeloa, he's done pretty well this season so far for me, I agree that he's not necessarily the ideal right back and by the sounds of it didn't have a great game last night, but we could do a lot worse imo.

Arbeloa.....god love him.

[Shanks]

Arbeloa = Dodgy Customer WTF!

He's not talking about Pro Evo here.

You can leave him out of YOUR team if you like.

Hmm people are also overlooking the fact that Gerrard was to the right of Benayoun for periods of the game this evening. But no, we can't criticise Gerrard no matter what so we'll select some easier targets like Yossi and Arbeloa a bollocking.

Gerrard had a pretty poor game too. It's almost as if everyone had declared they were knackered in the dressing room before they came out on the pitch.

But for quite a while, there was **** loads of space on the right for them to cross into.

Disagree. He's quite tricky to deal with. And percievably honest in and around the box to get free kicks, in tight defenses. Not quite Garcia, but then again, thank god.

I really think criticism of him tonight is bollocks Agger and Dossena completely neglected their duties at the back at times and he tried to cover. He wasn't stellar in his own duties but many of the fouls given against him were harsh and his positioning when attacks came down his flank was good.

arbeloa had a decent game aprt from a 5 minute mong spell after half time.

Carragher ****in stunk throughout. ****ed the offside line up right through the game.

Yossi had a nightmare but is a very useful player to have in the squad. good footballer.

complete and utter ****e. Hes a good player and he didnt do much wrong tonight.

speaking of dodgy customers, you back in that club yet nobby?:bird:

I think Benayoun is as much to blame for Arbeloa's average showing tonight as anything else. He was utterly atrocious, giving the ball away and offering nothing in the way of support for Arbeloa

I really like the lad and put the performance last night down to Yossi's lack of support more than anything else. But in saying that, I didn't think Arbers did too badly considering.


Enough of the negative talk from me, we won the game in my books. If it wasn't for the piss poor ref we would have wooped them. Some players were rested and we're still top of the group. Get in there

[Pablo]

Im more worried about what will happen if Arbeloa picks up an injury.

Degen is constantly injured and has barely played a game. Who else do we have as cover?

Carra can shift over there but that would mean Hyypia having to play, and even thats not possible in the Champions League.

Aside from that it's down to Stephen Darby, who although I've been very impressed with, I wouldnt want to rely on for a title push.

Have I missed anyone else out? We seem worryingly short at RB.

Ok player, nothing more.

His positioning in the second half was laughable, especially when they attacked down the right or through the middle.

He had a stinker. He concedes more fouls than the rest of the squad put together, in his own half. I do think he's a decent all rounder, and offers more going forward than Carra would, but he needs to sort himself out with petty fouls.
