    There's no doubt that he's been superb when he plays recently. Perhaps he's finally settled in and now feels comfortable at the club.

    Who knows, fact is he looks a very good player at the moment. The question is that with our midfield already very full...Can, Allen, Hendo, Stewart, Lucas and Allen, do we look to strengthen in that area this Summer? If yes who goes and is Allen one of them?

    Joe to follow Rodgers back to Swansea is my prediction...

    Shame but I don't blame him. He's good enough to be playing every week in the PL.


    Unless he's happy being back up?

    I agree, if he's happy to fight for a place then great but he's good enough to start for a lot of teams. He's got 12 months left on his contract we'll see if Klopp wants him very soon.

    Good squad option, but if we can get better he has value to sell and use money.

    Rather Lucas and Stewart left before Allen.

    I'm still not sure on Stewart, Lucas I'm a fan of but even I have to understand that he's a squad option other than a starter. I wouldn't sell Lucas though as his experience is valuable and he plays for the shirt.

    If I was to sell and keep then...

    Keep - Allen Milner Can Lucas and buy 1

    Sell - Stewart Hendo

    He has the ideal mindset and skillset to be a long-term 2nd/3rd string squad player IMO. I don't suspect he'll be on a huge packet too

    Simple answers.

    A) too small
    B) not that good to make up for it.
    C) made of glass.
    D) can't make 90mins.

    E) does klopp pick him when he's other options... nope.. That's the biggest tell of all.

    If we were truly wiping the slate clean for the squad and judging them post Klopp being hired then he's a definite keeper. He's always had quality, unfortunately he's always had injuries too. For a lot of players, like Sturridge, there will be entirely new programs for them to help them maintain fitness, let's give the lad a chance because IMO he's been our most consistent performer under Klopp, and to be fair to him he's added goals and assists - which was the main criticism levelled at him.

    I'd only keep can and milner out of that lot.

    We need more than lucas can give to win those extra 7 games a season needed.

    We've lost 10 games this league campaign with 2 to go.

    That's a lot... too many.

    Id definitely keep him but I suspect he doesn't want to stay.

    Won't be a big loss - easily replaceable but it would be a shame because there are others who go before him.

    You made the poll so can't see who voted what... Means we'll never know which idiots said no and then ban them for doubting the Welsh Pirlo!

    Good solid option off the bench, he's been excellent recently. Not first XI material really but what he offers shouldn't be underestimated

    Not a world beater but there are others is get rid of before him and suits us more than some others. If he can chip in with 5 goals a season then he'll be a definite keep.

    He he looks better in more advanced role, he actually has a bit more creativity than Hendo and Milner in that central role as well.

    He deserves to run a team, so if he leaves to captain a good club then good luck, but I want him
