    Meh signing - cheap short term stop gap at left back. He's better than Milner - he's about the same defensively but at least going forward, he likes to overlap and not cut inside. There's potential. At worst - we'll sell him for double in two years time

    Lucas Leiva has flown to Italy to finalise a £5m move to Lazio having said his goodbyes at Melwood on Friday. (Andy Hunter)

    Woo hoo!! The symbol of mediocrity is finally leaving .

    You need to rise above this. It should be beneath you

    He doesn't strike me as brainless as Milner so he's already an upgrade

    Because Moreno gets more stick than he deserves whilst Milner doesn't ...

    Combined with the fact that Moreno is leaving and is irrelevant

    And in addition, Moreno shows the levels of xenophobia within the fan base and in England in general.

    We constantly say how players may be **** but as long as they show 100%, then they derserve respect. Look at Flanagan - one of the worst defenders I've seen but he puts in big challenges and he gets lauded.

    However, Moreno - who has been a good professional on and off the pitch, tenacious, gives it his all, is always ridiculed - even when he has a good game.

    I'm not defending Moreno - I can clearly see xenophobia and it pisses me off.

    What makes you think Moreno is leaving, you have already turned down £13m and I cant see anyone offering more than that except some desperate team at 10.59 on the last day of the window.

    Milner is being asked to play Lb despite being a midfielder by his manager, instead of slagging off Milner for being brainless why don't you slag off Klopp for continuously playing him there. Shows how poor Moreno is.

    Bout time we had a decent ****ing left back, its been a whole in our defence for ages.

    Completely agree - it's not Milners fault. But what I can't stand is people saying Milner was good when he clearly wasn't.

    He has off games, like all players. He certainly had more bad games towards the end of the season, probably ran out of steam.

    I actually haven't got a problem wiTh Milner believe it or not. It's commendable that he can play in any position and just get on with it.

    But as mentioned, people and media are bigging him as the next maldini. Keep him in the squad and let him be a back up, nothing more.

    Yep, we wanted him as did Real. The only team that has been "linked" to Moreno is Juve and I have serious doubts about that link :emoticon-0100-smile


    Edit...for some reason I thought you said Pogba, Lukaku is as good a point though, Chelsea were chasing him so we had to act.
