Paulinho

[Arjun]

Stats will tell you he did some useful stuff, if you watched the game you'd see how anonymous he really was. Dembele Mason to start the scum game with Chadli taking the spot Dembele had further up

 

[VirginiaSpur]

Agreed, had little effect on the game.

At this point I have little hesitation in saying that we would not miss him moving forward.

except he led the team in tackles aulinhobored:

Exactly that. If you want to turn around and say he played shit, that's one thing (and probably true), but calling him anonymous is complete BS. Nearly everything went through him and he was always in the mix. If you want to define anonymous then look at Lamela.

Paulinho was by no means good. He's a complete liability in the "Makelele" role as he lets players drift past all the time, his passing is unadventurous at best. He keeps driving aimlessly to the right touch line with his dribbling and penning us back in possession etc. etc. But anonymous? Can't have been watching the game if you think that.

He's s***! Offers nothing.

 

[scotspurgav]

I'm no Pauline fan but he was ok yeterday, did exactly what he was on the pitch to do.

We tried to get a '3-0, even Paulinho played' chant going.

Shame it never really took off.

Don't know how serious this is, but are we really going to splurge ~£20M on a midfielder when we need a striker?

Super sub.

Did I see him avoid another challenge when he came on or was it the reassuringly expensive clouding my vision (and my absolute hatred of him)?

I like Paulinho.
I'm sorry.

....in an ironic 'Steffan Freund' type way you mean??aulinhofacepalm:

Just simply woeful

Pretty sure his wife is gay, considering the huge pussy she's married to.

If "Pauli" was a character in the Sopranos he would have been whacked some time ago.

 

[Joe Clash]

Paulinho - great, just fucking great.

not sure why people bother posting here. Nothing has changed. Nothing will

Fucking brilliant.

he definitely pulled out of his first tackle - a 50-50 just inside our attacking half. Unforgivable at any time, let alone 2-2 with 20 minutes to go at anfield ffs!!
