Still feel nervous when he's near the ball, as I feel there's another major cock up just around the corner.
Nope, still don't rate him I agree, he used to drop a big c*ck up ever 2-3 games, never seemed to learn, but he's really cut it out so far, so fingers crossed, every player has a c*ck up in them, so if he dropped one now he would just be being 'normal' though I'm sure we'd all jump on him !!!! One thing I've noticed in his game is he seems to take less risks, which was his big major problem, getting out of position and jumping into rash tackles and leaving us exposed, so far so good.

Nope, still don't rate him He’s been better this season but I still can’t believe how he’s gone from being completely frozen out for a midfielder to first name on the team sheet?! Has he got some compromising pics of Klopp or something? Why did I IMMEDIATELY think of Lovren when I read that ey?

Nope, still don't rate him He's ok on the ball, just as long as it's not in our own half. That's when it all goes pear shaped and he starts to p!ss his pants, while spinning around in circles looking for the man he's supposed to be marking.

hey, see your 8ft tall now  fallen out of love with koptalk due to the lack of posts and red4life coming in and ruining the whole site over and over again i pop my head in from time to time but it doesnt feel the same as before. it used to feel like a family forum (everyone know each other and had personal jokes ) but now it just feels disjointed be interested to know how other old timer posters feel about the forum now and then I have similar feelings. It swings between vitriolic and dead around here.

Re the topic itself, I used to catch a lot of stick for saying there was a player in there. He's shone in flashes what he can be in the past, and he's finally added some consistency and maturity. I think he's quality.

He’s supposed to be a defender and he’s not been much good at that which is why he gets so much stick.

He can defend. He hasn't really been at fault all year. But he defo needed some discipline and attitude changes. Our fullbacks are fine. We need a good cb right now. Hopefully Gomez get's a shot in his natural position.

I think it's amazing how he's pushed himself to learn and find a place here.
He could have easily asked for a loan to a league more suited like Italy or Spain but he has worked hard and even though our defence is atrocious. You can't really blame him for that.

Good on him for working at it but is he really that much better? His positioning still looks very dodgy to me.
