Lucas Pezzini-Leiva Vs. Steven Gerrard - No stupid answers

More importantly, Gerrard lacks short range passing ability and discipline, things which Leiva has in spades, Gerrard is also losing his pace, and has never had the ability to control a game like a player like Scholes, Alonso, Carrick or Leiva. Who is the superior player today?

I ask you guys not to ruin this thread like you did with the last one, this is a serious comparison thread. If you think it is ridiculous, explain why.

Lucas doesn't control the game and he can never lead a team like gerrard does.

Very hard for Lucas to hit them heights, but they play in different positions and have completely different roles in the team so you can't judge.

Do you remember when Liverpool scored 4 goals at Old Trafford? When Liverpool scored 4 goals at Stamford Bridge? Those two games had one thing in common, Lucas lead the team. Gerrard didn't play at Stamford.

The comparison is not Gerrard at his best Vs. Lucas at his best, it's Gerrard now Vs. Lucas now.

Well brains im sorry to add this to your attention, Gerrard has not played for what 5 months, so how do we know what he is like now.

Compare Gerrard 5 months ago to Lucas 5 months ago/now then, Lucas still wins.

But that is not now is it, and Gerrard has been struggling with injury problems for a while and well he carried Liverpool so often in the past, maybe that had also something to do with it.
