Dejan Lovren

[BobTheCharmer]

I can't stand the bloke. He doesn't do anything well. **** at passing, **** at marking, **** at heading and **** at tackling. Leader?

Other than Sterlo pretty much everyone has looked mostly **** this season.

Think its hard to judge someone coming into this shambles.

[Zapater]

Dejan, more like Degen.

I don't like to write players off this early, but he's been ****ing horrendous. End of. Find it very very difficult to see how he'll improve.

The way Zamora worried him in the first half was astounding to me. I'm not really sure what to think about him or the thinking behind the signing at this stage.

I agree in part. There's no doubt he would look better in last years team as would Mario. But this is what it is and they have to knuckle down and get on with it.

[brightred]

20 million for that!

Wow.

And Bobby ****in Zamora bosses you.

[G]

****e, sell. £20m

[baitman]

maybe he is under instruction to run around like a headless chicken.

[wongers]

well he's following those instructions to the letter the tit

[Le Chef]

Against the grain, but here goes - At Southamton it was a settled back four, here, its been swapped so many time, then add in Mig, probably the worst keeper I've seen since Brad Jones.
My view, commanding keeper, and the back four gains confidence

[Kenneth]

It's not that against the grain, but still wrong imo.

[BigChief]

How could it be we signed possibly the worst striker in the league AND the worst CB? Not saying its anyone's fault (not saying it isn't either), but this fact just astounds and saddens me.

It could be said that Dunne and Caulker are more worserer

[BigChief]

I would argue they would play better for us than Lovren for sure. Dunne would concede one own goal per 5 games but stand up to bully forwards. And Caulker would be a good pacy foil. Both together would concede less goals than we have been doing.

We were all aghast at the thought of signing Bertrand yet he looks a world beater at Southampton. Lovren looked decent there too but epically ****e for us. Somethings amiss and it's not just down to **** players.

People were being stupid about Bertrand because he wasn't exotic or exciting enough, he was always decent.

What's happened to Lovren is pretty concerning, he is much better than what we're seeing. Mitigating factors do include the chaos around him, but he really hasn't taken charge the way he was supposed to. Something structural must be at least partly at fault though, too many decent defenders have looked awful for us now.
