Both Livermore and Sawyers were fantastic against Man City yet less then a week later some guy is calling for Sawyers never to play for us again and now Livermore is being slated despite being one of our best performers last season and going up against much higher quality this season.
Livermore, was not one of our best performers last season. It just so happens that a lot of our fans are sucked in my running around a lot, giving the ball away and conceding cheap free kicks trying to atone for errors.
In some people's mind that equates to putting "steel" into the midfield. His two main issues are that 1) he's not mobile enough for the Prem (you only get away with that if you are someone like Pirlo) and 2) his takes too long to move the ball. It's just about passable in the division below but not this one.
