We have prove that point, in 2005 by beating AC Milan in the CL finale.

Let us not be so critical of those old guards that have done so much for this club. Instead we should applude them.

Go and read a dictionary.

Whats e fuss with a couple of spelling mistakes?

This thread is really starting to make me  . Riise can have his off days as do all players. Stevie G has had a couple of quiet games during his career but threads don't suddenly pop up saying he's shite get rid of him. Against Haifa Riise did have a few poor moments but in reality he can't be blamed for the goal as that originated from a poor pass from Alonso and JAR showed his quality by coming back from a slightly poor performance by putting in a quality display against the champions on Sunday.
Lets leave the lad alone to get on with the start of the season and if he's having a shit season come november/december then we can start discussing whether he's good enough to wear the shirt.

He is not the best left back in the world... Coddy... what you said i dont agree with ! A Roberto Carlos popped in mind with every description of Riise's brilliant game you seemed to come up with... I can name many left backs who i think would do a better job at liverpool than Riise does ! (R.Carlos, Zambrotta, A.Cole, Heinze...etc) thats only the one you probably know and would certainly agree with me on ...
Riise is a good leftback... by no means Shi.ite as some went on to say, but he also is not as brilliant as some of his better performances might imply ! He would make a decent left wingback but for a leftback, he lacks one or two needed defensive qualities and the inconsistency of his displays is what brings his game down so dramatically .

so remind me....... they can all play left wing also? no ill think you'll find Zambrotta and Heinze are actually full backs. As for ashley Cole and Roberto Carlos they both play a completly different game to JAR, Cole doesn't attack the goal in open play like John does and Carlos got a nose bleed if he left his own half.

coddy wrote:actually i stand corrected Zambrotta has played on the wing, but he's still nothing like JAR!!

I honestly think that noone could do a better job for the role that we use him in.

mmmm.... i dont know what to say ! i mean.... do you even watch soccer ?!
Roberto carlos is better than riise in all aspects PERIOD.
Zambrotta is a better defender than riise is, a better attacker went it comes to left backs than Riise is and by far a better allround player than riise... a better winger too !
A.Cole is the best left back in the world today...he doesnt get a nose bleed when he leaves his half of the field and the fact that he is not played in left wingback doesnt mean anything !

+ what do you mean "play a different game than Riise's" ?
Carlos was nominated for WorldFottballer of the year and should have won it, he is quality and is one of the best leftbacks to have ever played the game.

I think you overrate Riise, not a little ! He's a good player...has good attributes but is not by anymeans a better leftback than the bunch i mentioned ! being a leftback means having good defensive as well as attacking qualities. When compared to the ones i mentioned, Riise falls short...simple as that .
