Re: Liverpool Thread(I Just Can't Get Enough!!)
Tbh they maybe aren't touchline wingers, but they are players that will go past a player on the line and put a good cross in, aswell as attack and score. Liverpool only have Suarez who can actually beat a man, other then him no-one.
All the succesfull teams have had "wingers" who can go past a player and make something happen, whether they are old skool touchline ones (Valencia, Lennon, etc) or modern ones (Ronaldo, Nani, Malouda) complemented with attacking fullbacks. Most of them have had atleast 2, maybe 3 players that can just beat a man from nothing and atleast one, or even two attacking fullbacks. Utd have Evra and now the twins with Nani, Valencia en Rooney, Chelsea have/had A.Cole, Bosingwa with Malouda, Drogba and Anelka. Liverpool have Johnson and Suarez...
As for Carrol, I think his definition of the role he playes needs to be clarified before making comparisons (Berbatov has far, far more skill and overal is a far better striker, however as a targetman he is pretty flawed imo (not sure how good he is as a frontline striker getting on the end of crosses...)) And whether he is good enough will be seen next season imo, he's looked like both a donkey and a very dangerous striker within the space of two games so let's just see.
Even your own supporters aren't convinced by him but that's fine, you'll only pipe up when a Liverpool fan doesn't rate him.
