Stick a blank contract his nose and tell him to fill in blanks.

 

We need game winning mavericks and this cat is a game winning maverick.

The game was won but lovely goal nonetheless. I'll be more impressed when the pressure is on and he bangs in a worldie to win a big game.

Replaced by a child last night who didn't do much but still produced more than him.

 

What is the fucking point of offering him a contract? Shirley the "protect his value" argument falls on its face if he's turning in performances last night on the odd occasion he's not injured.

Loads of people still rate him. Made a comment on another platform about how I don't know how not everyone is sick of him at this rate and how can the fanboys still defend him all the time, and I got torched. There's a cult around the guy. I think most fans were willing to give him a chance even after 2 years down the line of his signing, me included, but that sentiment should be over now. 

 

Unfortunately, Klopp loves his qualities on paper despite the fact he rarely delivers. He called him one of the best midfielders in Europe at one point. That, with the fact his value has probably dropped too low for us to consider selling him means he'll be here for the long haul.

Sickening.

You have time to make comments on other platforms??

Had to laugh during the Norwich LC game. We had a great break on and Naby had the ball just inside the Norwich half. He just needed to play the ball either through the middle or along the wing and Div or Taki would have been clean through with virtually just the keeper to beat.

 

But in all the excitement, Naby lost the plot and instead of kicking the ball cleanly, kicked the ground instead and the ball bobbled away to a Norwich player.

 

I thought then, that's Naby fucked, again and didnt see him finishing the game. 2nd half, he didnt reappear.

 

If Liverpool are in talks about a new contract, it is surely just to protect his transfer value. His ship must surely have sailed?

The club spent £53m on a player Klopp wanted. Does that make him our third highest signing ever? He was always going to get every chance to make a go of things in a way that a £10m signing wouldn't. 

 

Agree that we're not going to get anything near what we paid for him back now, but we should still cut our losses. Is he even a £20m player at this stage? Anyway, we've rinsed enough other clubs over the last few years and one big transfer was always going to go badly. We've come out well on the law of averages. Fees aside, Alisson or Virgil flopping would have been vastly more damaging to us than Keita doing the same. We wouldn't have won the league or European Cup without either, whereas sometimes I forget that Keita plays for us (even during games when he starts).
