It was like having Agger back, a defender who played the ball out well and took it to the half way line before passing

And a stormtrooperOriginally posted by Rich View PostA lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.Comment

And how tall was Maldini or Canno? I am sorry I just don't buy that height will determine (to a certain degree) how good of a cb or sweeper you are, he has enough other attributes that more than enough make up this perceived lack of height... IMO he is a rockComment

Think you're missing my point
Lucas has shown great promise at the back and he's good in the air BUT against teams that pump the ball long and are a threat from setpieces (something the Pulis' and Allardyces' of this world are good at) then we would need (IMO) a really tall, aerially dominant centrehalf to COMPLEMENT Lucas. Because Lucas has the potential to be bullied by an overly aggressive team.James Philip Milner Fanclub #1

That's a given. No way would you play the likes of Rossiter beside him at the back.....Originally posted by Rich View PostThink you're missing my point

Having said that. I do not remember anyone bullying LucasComment

Id rather we didnt persist with Lucas at CB. Whilst he was good, any time the ball was behind him he was struggling and will struggle for pace.
He is an excellent in defensive midfield (if a little limited attack wise) and should be allowed to play there. He is not much more than a solution to a problem created by the previous manager and multiple transfer fiascos.*Except Michael, who died.Comment
