Watching the Liverpool vs Utrecht game, and it's absolutely piss poor, but it got me thinking. Folks often talk about their team's star player, I was wondering who folks think their team's worst player is, the useless donkey who makes your heart sink whenever you see his name in the starting 11. For me there's no contest (even though Liverpool have got some fucking duff players at the moment ). Ryan Babel. He's just utterly dreadful, he's lazy, he's careless, his passes hardly ever go to anyone, his first touch is awful, he pulls out of tackles, he doesn't chase down balls, he doesn't have one single ounce of commitment. He's a fucking disgrace to the shirt he wears (ineptitude is bad, but laziness and lack of commitment is inexcusable), and to cap it all, he actually appears to think that not only can he play, but that he is better than everyone else . Never mind whether we can sell him in the next transfer window (I can't imagine anyone actually paying for him), we should pay someone to take the useless, bone idle, arrogant waste of wages off our hands.

So who's your team's worst player ?

Babel is a bit dodgy, he has some good games. Most of my worst Liverpool players come from the era when I used to go to Anfield lots - 86-93. Some of the fucking clowns Souness brought in, including but not limited to

Istvan Kozma
Sean Dundee
Bjørn Tore Kvarme
Paul Stewart
Torben Piechnik

And not to forget Michael Stensgaard who's career in football ended when he dislocated his shoulder........putting a fucking ironing board up.

Oh aye, we've had some shockers in the past too. I meant current players. Babel may have had the occasional OK game, but I don't think it's been a result of him putting in any effort, and it's that which makes my blood boil about him. He's wearing my team's shirt, the famous red shirt of Liverpool. We may be a mediocre team now, but we have been the very greatest, and the shirt represents not just what Liverpool are now, it represents the proud history of what Liverpool once were. To pull on the red shirt is an honour, and to not give 100% while wearing it is an insult to the team, the history of the club and most of all to the fans (not just the Liverpool shirt, any team shirt, it's the same for every team). I doubt there are many Liverpool fans who don't pretty much idolise Dirk Kuyt and Carra (OK, idolise may be going a bit far, but for me they represent the heart and soul of the current Liverpool team) - even though neither of them is the best, most skilled, technically gifted player in the world, you know that when they pull on the shirt they will give their entire being for the full 90 minutes, they will run until their lungs burst, they will put their bodies on the line, they are PURE commitment. I expect nothing less. Babel is the exact opposite - he probably does have a bit of skill, when he can be bothered. He just can't be bothered. And that makes him a worthless cunt in my book, unworthy of pulling on the shirt and stepping on the hallowed turf of Anfield.

Maybe I'm just old fashioned. I guess I was always with Shankly regarding football not being a matter of life and death...

E2A and I'm ranting again this wine's far too nice, and is going down far too quickly

Eagain2A I guess that's just a long-winded way of saying for me it's about commitment - if a player isn't totally committed then I don't want him in my team.

Sorry to hijack it Booj but the worst ever has to be that fucking idiot that Souness gave a game to at Southampton...

Copied from a random website - This is a true story though

We are in the office of Southampton manager Graeme Souness. The
telephone rings. It's - who else? - former World Footballer of the Year
George Weah, who, apropos of absolutely nothing, is offering the Saints his
30-year-old cousin Ali Dia, who he claims has played 13 times for Senegal.
Immediately, Souness agrees to take Dia on loan for a month and puts his
budding superstar on the bench for Saturday's home game with Leeds despite
never having seen him in competitive action. Dia was scheduled to take part
in a reserve game earlier in the week, but the weather intervened. After 32
minutes, Dia replaces Matthew Le Tissier. The sense is very much of a torch
being passed from one genius to another. Fifty-three jaw-dropping minutes
later, Dia himself is replaced, for the simple reason that he isn't a
footballer. Nor, it turns out, is he George Weah's cousin. Dia's agent,
however, does a Weah impersonation that is especially believable, if, like
Souness, you haven't actually met George Weah. Dia has not been heard of
since.

I used to think Wes Brown was a stinker

[Boojum]

I remember that. I thought it was fucking funny.


E2A I hope Souness doesn't have the internet, if he does he must be fucking skint from sending money to Nigerians

Souness got owned by one of those African scammers

[Archangel]

Tony Hibbert for Everton. Youth setup graduate, played for them his whole career, has never scored.

[InspectorFlavour81]

Club Tottenham

current David Bentley..... has his moments but far too much money for someone who never really around much


in history i know of Trapenzani, or something like that, crap italian left back who if i remember right didnt look typical italian

[Tasty]

Not really sure he fits the worst title but my heart sinks whenever I here that Farreira is starting. He's had a few good games but he only seems to play when options are limited.
