Great player. Criminally underused. Always looked capable of creating something whenever he got on the pitch.

He really isn't.

[Harry Squatter]

I like him but he is another player you can't fully rely on because of injuries and inconsistency, Klopp rarely seems to trust him. I think his contract is up as well next season and the owners are desperate for him to be off the wage bill.

 

Had some good flashes of brilliance with the goals against the Mancs, the breakaway goal against Burnley, crossing for Wijnaldum against Barca, the assist for Jota Vs Sheffield United and a couple of other goals.

He's a talented but unreliable player who's served his purpose of bringing a spark here and there. Hopefully we'll replace him with someone Klopp can trust more, but if it's to give more potential time to kids, it's not the end of the world either. 

[Harry Squatter]

Only played 45 times in 3 seasons.

We have the option to extend it by a year without his consent.

 

This is more about making space in the squad for someone better.

 

And it better be someone better.

If we're binning off Shaq because she's unreliable, why did we give Adrian a new contract?

 

Is there not room in this big ol' world for two squad jesters?! 

[Harry Squatter]

Adrian is probably on about 7 grand a week and Shaqiri was on 85 grand a week. 

[Dr Nowt]

Talented player who’s not been fit nearly enough and even when he is either isn’t fully trusted by the manager or doesn’t quite fit the team shape/tactics he’s after.
 

Hard to see what there is to lament in selling someone who’ll always be a bit-part player here. Had a few really nice moments for us, good luck to him. Hope to fuck this is the cue for bringing in a new attacking player and leaving Origi in a rolled-up carpet somewhere.

Most impressive thing he’s done at LFC is have a 59 page thread on here.

It could get to 60 before he leaves...

I’d say his 2 goals v the mancs beats it.
 

Or his assist for the equaliser v Barca.

You've seen our wage bill right? Only way we get that high is by paying bums like Adrian a lot more than 7k a week.

If you were placed in sole charge of the financial side of the club, do you think there’s any season in the last decade we would have failed to win every piece of silverware available? Don’t be modest.

I think you’re being too self-effacing. I’m confident we would have scooped up the 2013 league cup on top of everything else.

San Miguel huh? That would explain why he plays like he's pissed most of the time.

Wait, what, you said our wage bill cant possibly be THAT high yet now you're pointing out our 2nd \ 3rd choice keeper who hardly plays is on just shy of 60 grand a week!? Fuck me, who'd have thought?

Not you again dumbass. No one has questioned the first team wage bill. 

 

Giving Adrian 60k a week is ludicrous though when they won't extend Gini and stalling on Henderson

There you go again, resorting to your childish insults when you're called out over your hypocrisy. Giving Adrian 60k might be ludicrous. That was not the point I highlighted.

 

I pointed out you repeatedly saying our wage bill cannot be £320m in the last accounts yet you publish a report our 2nd \ 3rd choice keeper, who hardly pays, is on just shy of 60k or, over £3m a year.

[TD_LFC]

Utd have a second choice on 350k (18 mill) a year, not sure 60k per week/3 mill per year is that exorbitant given the current climate.
