I think hes a great midfielder who can do things for liverpool in the future. I won't call him a flop just yet because he was injured and showed that he can be creative in the final few games when he was playing. Rafa must stick him alongside gerrard in the centre and drop lucas to the bench.

I think it's easy to be over critical when so many have had such a poor season. The guy has played about 5 minutes since joining, got injured after playing a few bit parts and was not match fit with confidence also an issue I'd imagine.

Really not a good start for anyone; having to adjust to the F1 of football coming from the snail league.

At least he wants to play for the club and that puts him way above many as things stand.

Just by saying what he has shows he's got more metal then most Italians who would have made there excuses and already wanted a transfer.

I'm backing him 100% and hope he stays and can come out the blocks fresh, fully fit and now fully prepared for a Premier league season. If this guy can get anywhere near his best he'll have been a fantastic signing.

He needs more playing time and to stay injury free and I think he'll be a good signing.

Lets not forget, he came into a team, off the back of a major injury, that was playing as bad as they have in their lives with zero confidence and a manager who didn't know how to turn it around (and I think how to use Aqua!). Given that situation I don't think any new player would have shone.

Great points Wilki.

He's not had long enough to be a flop or a success, it can't be easy for the lad comin back after a shattered ankle, but one thing he is for sure is something different. I say give him a chance.

i think he has natural ability and a good touch once he has had a few games on the bounce and toughens up on the 50 50 balls he could become a top player well just have to see.

yeh good point, he did look a bit weak on occasion but im sure now he's got a taste of the premier league he will be hitting the gym in pre season training.

I think it's fair to say that when he has played well he's been involved in the build up when goals are scored.
I will also reserve judgment as long as Rafa (if he's still here)gives him a chance to play more games.


say what you see.
