Bad miss yes but I feel for this lad. He has ability and he is still young, it's not his fault that Liverpool overpaid for him. He has had no luck with injuries and his confidence is evidently at rock bottom.
He's been unlucky with injury, but he's had 18 months now & I don't see him getting many more chances to impress. Come January we will be buying more midfield players so I think he's only got 7 games left to save his liverpool career
