The Reds number 20 claims that his height is not important when compared with his other attributes.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jay-Spearing-c18106 is a number of players in the current Liverpool squad that have graduated from the club’s prestigious youth academy. Known for not shying away from a tackle and putting in the kind of effort in every match that have drawn comparisons to other
players such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Gerrard-c34196.
The five foot six inch player comes in at third spot if one was to rank the players in the Barclays Premier League, and is the same height as Manchester City’s want away striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Tevez.
However, in a recent interview with the club’s official website, Spearing revealed that he had come to terms with everyone comparing him to other midfielders who ply their trade in the centre of the park, but that never affected him when it came to his performances.
“A lot of people have talked about that for a long time, the size difference in the middle of the park.” He continued, “But I’ve never been scared to get into a tussle with anyone. I always love a tackle, so as long as I show people I can play football then
it’s no problem, whatever size I am.”
It would be hard for one to disagree with Spearing’s statement as the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 midfielder has been cautioned on more than one occasion for his all or nothing tackles.
He continued by explaining that he never thought about his size when it came to the football pitch, “It’s never been an issue for me, I’ve never really thought about it. All I think about is the football side, and hopefully I’m proving to people that the
football side is there.”
Spearing has found himself in the spotlight in recent weeks as he has been tasked with filling the void left by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lucas-c22528 Leiva who has been ruled out for the rest of the season due to injury. The Liverpool number 20 will be looking to continue his fine form
against Manchester United on the weekend.
