Thanks for the reply, I was mislead as a kid then ha ha.
From reading all the posts and opinions of players the a common factor that you hear is how many players wasted or wasting their ability. I guess far to interested in money, fame and thinking they had made it. Oh and social media :)
{Ed001's Note - he was a nice guy, so most people gave him a pass, but he didn't deserve it as it was his own fault. If he had put effort into the donkey work, as well as wanting to look good with the passes, LFC would have won more.
I can cope with a player not having the most talent, what I hate is a player with talent who pisses it away. Some do it through off field activities of various kinds, Redknapp did it through attitude. He was more interested in looking good than being good.}

Ed001, what was your opinion of Jamie Redknapp? As a kid he was one of my favorite players. He could make any pass he wanted but i feel he never reached his full potential or wanted to!
I know he suffered with this knees and could of been wrong to have him as one of my fav players. But I was young and really didn't look at football the way i do now.
Thanks.
{Ed001's Note - hated him as a player, plentiful talent but never put in the effort needed to make even 50% of his ability. His idiotic tendency to stand on the centre back's toes for 90 minutes held us back for years. He would allow the opposition to close down the whole team because they could cut him and the centre backs out with one player as they were all within a couple of inches. If he had just moved forward a few yards, he would have been in a much more dangerous place to play passes from and opened up the field a bit more for the team to play out from the back. Instead he constantly took the ball, literally, off the centre back's toe time after time after time. One of the most pointless players ever to wear the shirt, as he did nothing for the team. When he did bother to put in some effort and did some of the dirty work, he was exceptional, except it only happened once or twice a season. Then he would stroll around for a few weeks until injury took him out for months. What a waste of talent.}
