Dejan Lovren

[Rowan]

Seems we were settled, got some injuries, he came in, we got **** again. I suppose we beat Blackburn and Drew with them and beat the Geordies ( he was a car crash in that too). His return has coincided with our loss of form.

From a results perspective you're wrong but to be fair to you. If you're ever going to make a statement based on assumption and feel safe that you're bound to be right then it would be that Lovren's return caused a downturn in form

[Rich]

Newcastle though, they don't count

And Dejan had such an accomplished game against the barcodes too.

It just feels like there has to be a connection there... I just can't get the facts to work in my favour.

Seriously when it comes to Dejan, facts don't really matter. He's clearly ****.

[frank the tank]

How much do people reckon we cod get for this useless ****in cunt??? If we got £5m back i would be shocked.....

I'd love to sit brendan down and ask him "what did you see in lovren?"

20 ****in million. What a disgrace...

A packet of skips might be the going rate.

A packet of skips might be the going rate.

Even a packet of skips don't melt as quick as this guy under pressure.

[frank the tank]

A loan to west ham, brom or villa awaits. he will do okay there but at the end of the season their manager will go to the media and say "hmmmm dont think we can afford the 6m fee or his wages"....

This will happen every year for 3 seasons until we can cut the ****er loose....

Had a really good game yesterday. Has a few weeks in the team due to Sakhos injuries, a chance to finish the season well & give himself a chance of being a good addition to the squad next season.

As is usually the case he isn't as bad as he has been made out to be on here, a run in the side and he has seemed better.

However he still has that air about him that he so often makes great last-ditch tackles because his mistakes get him into trouble.

I still believe that the main difference between a decent defender and a good/very good defender at this level comes down to how often you make mistakes. Being good for 88 mins of the game but making a couple of mistakes isn't good enough, and to be honest I think we have a few too many of those players.

I think a top player is one who is consistent, and one who on the big occasion can concentrate and not make a mistake. Lesser players will let the occasion get the better of them. I think we have a squad of players who are hit & miss on the big occasion. And we lack that real world class individual who in a drab game will pull something from nothing on a regular basis.

[Chris]

Wont go down well on here but he's had a pretty decent 2015.

[RichC]

He was good yesterday best defender for us imo

[McDermotX]

He was decent yesterday (our best defender), bar a slip up following classic Glen defending, but it was mostly against a side with zero attack operating a front line rarely moving 5yds over the halfway line.

Make no mistake, assuming Brendan is still in charge, he'll be here next season.
