Football FanCast guest columnist Joe Kingsley is delighted that Rafa is looking to get rid of the mediocrity at the club and will happily drive Lucas personally if anyone was to stump up £6m for him.
When I woke up to news that Liverpool were looking for suitors for Lucas Leiva, my first thought was to who would be prepared to pay that much for the Brazilian and how I would happily offer my services if he needed a lift there.
As you can gather I have no real love for Lucas and really believe that Rafa has persevered with him for far too long. He flatters to deceive continually, probably one of the worst ever Brazilians to ply his trade in the Premier League and I doubt his departure from Liverpool is likely to shed many tears and if we get anywhere near the reported £6m for his services then we will clearly have had a result.
He has been a huge disappointment and failed to live up to his early signs he first showed on his arrival at Anfield. Rafa has been extremely patient with him, given him every opportunity and all he was repaid with was a player who seem to have the inability to time a tackle and have little impact going forward, he is a passenger out there and hardly the ideal replacement for Alonso or Mascherano when they are out of the side.
I'm pleased that Rafa is clearly taking the firm action in trimming the squad as it is much needed and getting rid of the mediocrity, which in truth Benitez has accumulated over the years, is certainly a step in the right direction. They will also bring in a nice bit of resource too which can be spent on bringing more established players in who can hit the ground running at the football club.
One of the worse brazallians? Look at denilson
Brazilians like cmi in EPL lei.
Thank God .
6million pounds ok .... even 4million i will let go .
He suited more for the La Liga .
Or best in France .
French soccer is slower than both BPL and La Liga .
My prayers is answered .

I think Ah Ben should change the talent scout who have recommended MoMo, LuCas and Kompany.
Unless he have chosen them himself.
