KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum How close will we be when Allen returns ?

Doesn't matter where he comes in the pecking order, right now thats our lightest position and a fit Allen gives us options until we hopefully buy in January.

I think Allen is underrated. When he forst came in he showed glimpses of class. he was unlucky with his injuries but I believe he could still be a major cog in our midfield.

allen is brutal.

I just don’t know what to think about Allen. He looked good in his first few games with us, despite an annoying tendency to pass it backwards and sideways with little of the Coutinho eye for an attacking or creative pass about him. And from then, whether it was the injury to his shoulder or what? but he went downhill from there. I suppose my jury is still out even after all this time, I just need to see him play a half dozen more games before i write his obituary... or else his eulogy!

Started writing a pro-allen comment...

watched this video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gWwdd67DFQ

LOL eehh yeah...he shouldn't play for us anymore!

Allen is the new ray Wilkins ..... Pass side ways and backwards only...

Br facking wasted 15m on a player worth half that and shelvey cud of done his job

So br shud of used that wasted 15m on Allen on some like ie
Erikson
DM
Right sided mid
Am
Striker

Why's that? He get's an assist in that video. He passes it sideways a lot, but he's playing DM in that game. It's his job.

If you watch carrick that's exactly what he does every game.

He and Lucas would pair well, I think. Gerrard would be free to move a little more forward, and when his legs give out, Henderson could come on for him.
