I don't know. I like the kid he seems like a top guy. I like that he scored on his anfield debut and I like that he's a young Italian with a good shot and pace to burn. But I can't get over the fact he's only going to have scored 1 goal this season which came on his debut against Gomel. For a striker, that's appalling! I think Andy Carroll had a better record!

Suggest we stay away from italians from now on. Aquilani, dossena and now borini. Total 39m worth of talent but worth a pile of crap.

At least citeh managed to recoup their losses from balotelli. No so lucky for us.

I can't get over the fact that he's a steaming pile of sh!te who will have pocketed £3m from us by the time he next kicks a ball!

Have you actually followed him since he came in? The guy has played about 6 times and had a number of injuries. This ridiculous pattern continues.............every player is a robot, every young player LFC sign at 'punt money' (and this is these days for a striker) should perform like Messi from game one and contribute 20 goals in their first season or they're Conference stuff!

The lad's come on after returning from injury, has all the mental stuff going on and no doubt feels under pressure anyway and then gets a dislocated shoulder in minutes.

Impossible to judge him until he gets a run in the side and is settled into the place and team. He is a young Liverpool player and it appears all people want to do is put the boot in and do the complete opposite of 'support' or show some empathy with the lad.

It really is sad stuff.

Big Andy has potential and is doing well at Wrdt Ham. We should bring him back in next season. We'll have four tremendous strikers and will help us challenge for title

He would struggle to help us challenge for the Championship.

It's hard not to laugh when someone refers to Borini and Carroll as 'tremendous strikers'!

Sorry but if you actually read my post you would see that I said I really liked the lad and he did have talent. However one goal in a season for a striker is poor even if he missed half it with injuries.

on paper it looked like a good signing. a young striker who netted 10 goals for roma playing out of position and made the italian squad for the euro's.

i still think the lad has got potential but not sure he will have a great deal of opportunities to show what he can do now. chances may be even thinner if we don't make the europa league next season and if coutinho continues to impress.

the start of his liverpool career couldnt have gone any worse tbf. very unfortunate to be injured.

i hope the fans give him a chance though, he has got potential to be a good player.
