Jesus Navas (continued)

[baildon blue]

Doesn't seem to be any better than Adam Johnson . He was piss poor today . I thought Milner was better and he can defend better . Got told on holiday last year Navas was really good . To me looks good when we play at home but when we play away he looks terrible .Even Kolorov can deliver a ball in better than Navas .

Re: Navas

There's not much point having one speed demon when everyone else is so one paced

Not much point being a speed demon when you have no clue how to utilize that speed.

Rarely ever beats his man, for all his speed , he just doesn't create enough panic , cuts inside too much.
Would love to see him just knock the ball past his full back now and again and simply get after the ball.

This is it..... David White had pace and you knew once he got the ball he was going past the opposition to set up Wayne ''Bertie'' Biggins for a simple tap in.
Jesus has yet to go past one player.....

Re: Navas

It's funny how the opinions on Navas continue to change week after week. IMO he's a valuable member of the squad. Don't think he should be limited to impact sub, but for a game like today, that might have been the better option. Liverpool came out overly aggressive, got a few goals, but quickly tired and you could see that in the second half. Coutinho and sterling were no longer everywhere -- clichy and zaba were stepping up in winning 50/50's easy. Flanaggan played his heart all game, but I think a late Navas introduction could have hurt and already tired Liverpool team.

Not his day, but seriously, the hate some of you are giving is completely unnecessary.

Great post.
