re: Liverpool FC 2012/13 Season Long Thread

It's about time he was recognized for the effort he has given his entire time at Pool. He's a polarizing character, certainly, but he's one of the most passionate players I've ever seen play. When he was first signed, one of the first things I noticed about him was that if the ball was within 20-30 yards of him, he'd be running his arse of towards it. He's even poached a couple of goals after picking unaware defenders' pockets (Norwich comes to mind). If he were an English players there would be a circlejerk over him, the likes of which haven't been seen since the one over Rooney in like 2005-06. Needless to say, I love him (no homo... mostly)
