David Luiz

Like I've always said from the start this guy is a show clown when it comes to defending. How he became the captain of Brazil who knows. He cannot organize a defense with his positioning and marking a disgrace. JT and Sliva made him look better than he is. We sold him for a triple his value at least.. Fuk u PSG..

Great person but he is average defender. Next to Silva, he is actualy decent. Similar to Pique and Puyol. Pique without Puyol is clown.

He is libero, someone who just rams around the pitch, takes the ball and goes forward, abandoning his position every single time without even thinking how could that damage the team. Its not like he doesnt care about defence, but his emotions rush in him and that makes him completely uncomposed to be top defender.

Again, the lad is proper character with great spirit, but sadly he isnt great defender.

He however isnt only to blame, Phil shouldnt go all attack in first place. We saw Portugal do that, they got destroyed and same happend with Brazil. If this Brazil played counter football (and they actualy have proper players for that; fast wings, good DMs, etc..) they might win it.

Still think that apart from the Germany game, he was one of the best CBs at the WC.

Silva holds everything together. Without him, he is the usual Luiz we all know defensively!

But he will play with Silva at PSG.

So all good for them.

That's exactly what I was going to say.

Just watching the highlights. The only defender worse than him was Marcelo, who was just beyond a joke.

Ah man, you guys are mean lol.. I really hope he learns from this. to make a man, you gotta break a man.

Don't know how anyone can say he is one of the best CBs in the world or could be one of them after a performance like that and fuck knows how many individual errors at Chelsea. One of the best CBs in the world is a guy who never gets caught out, never/rarely makes mistakes, is very difficult to play against and can ALWAYS be depended on by his team to never fuck up. Why do you think he featured in the big games as a central midfield player at Chelsea? Because he never learned from his mistakes at center back and can't be trusted there in big games. Top notch by Jose to get anything over 25M for him let alone 40M. Absolutely brilliant work.

Lets be honest he might have an amazing long pass in him or a great free kick or step out of defence and go on a good dribble but for all of that theres a dummy against Cardiff when he hasn't seen an attacker 3 or 4 yards away where you concede a goal or a stupid needless foul on a QPR striker which leads to a penalty and goal as well as the multiple needless attempts to come and intercept a ball hes getting nowhere near, continuously giving away stupid free kicks or very very rash over the top blocks like the one on that kid when we played Swindon.

Sure having talent is one thing but a CB isn't always a player who needs to score freekicks or play 60 yard passes, sure it helps but if they can't do the basics whats the point?

It's a shame we didn't wait until after the World Cup to sell him because we could've probably got even more money because the abiding feeling after this tournament is that he's an awesome defender.

People criticising his defending should look at the free-kick he scored in the last round and his efforts in singing the national anthem (both verses!!) before EVERY match.

Nuff said.

Seems people are holding Luiz responsible for last nights result which is both pathetic and laughable.

Every single player in brazil was absolute dogshit. This was a one of a kind disaster that usually dont happen. It cannot be blamed on luiz AT ALL.

Scolari is the man to put under the giljotine. For instance starting that shitty little dwarf now that neymar was out instead of willian.

Well this is the Luiz thread so I am sure a lot of people know most of them were shite, but as it stands this thread is dedicated to Luiz and last night he was shit.

Nah people just celebrate that we sold him. They are satisfied doing this and they are blinded by hate.
