Lucas would walk into any PL team midfield and own it, fact!

He'd not get a game for West Brom.

Now thats Hyperbole.

Only because he would not want to. If you remember he was virtually everpresent under bodge

Now thats Hyperbole.

They had Geremi, Tiago, Makelele, Smertin, and Parker at the time.

Anyhow, the opinion that Parker > Lucas, or even Song > Lucas, is not the joke it seems be taken as.

Only cause Poulson was so **** even the Bodge could see it, but only after wasting money on him. The fool very nearly sold Lucas.

Not saying it's a joke. It's just not true.

Doesnt matter who they had and when, the point is Lucas would walk into their side at the same age that Parker didnt get a look in.

[Kenneth]

That makes no sense. You asked what Parker was doing at 24 and he played 15 games for Chelsea, who at the time had loads of CM options. Now they are ****ed in MF, saying Lucas would walk into their team is proving what?

I just find it odd that JohnDoe gets relentlessly mocked, often for saying things that are taken as read by most non Liverpool fans.

[Craig_H]

Ah, so people who mostly dont watch Liverpool are onto something then?

The difference is, most of us acknowledge that Parker is a good player. Most non-Reds think Lucas is average at best. It's pure ignorance.

JohnDoe gets pulled up based on the extent of his dislike/non-rating of Lucas, combined with the fact that he's a Liverpool fan who actually watches Lucas week in, week out, and should therefore know better than the average Stoke fan.

He was also betting his house on the idea that Lucas would become a bench warmer this season, with the arrival of Adam and Henderson. Now that is laughable.

[Kenneth]

Stop bullying him Craig.

Why is it more noteworthy..?

Also I've never seen the word Hyperbole used more than it is on this site. I don't think there have been any 'hyperbolic' statements made with regard to Lucas. I'd have him in the team ahead of all the others on the list too. Is that Hyperbole?

Hyperbole. Hyperbole. Hyperbole.

I would ban people from using it. I'm tempted to do a search with it being the key word but I'm afraid of crashing the site.

Stop exaggerating.
