I think having a load of senior midfielders like Milner, Henderson and Fab moving on has helped him, he seems to have stepped up and made the most of the chance with them going and new players coming into the midfield.

Indeed, and it’s hardly a forgone conclusion that having game time leads to success for young players, and loan moves are very hit and miss. Very few end up making the step up to PL first team players.

It isn't, but in fairness the the manager and club, we haven't really wasted much game time on players who haven't made it, the ones who haven't been good enough have generally been spotted early and haven't had PL/CL game time wasted on them and have been moved on

Where are these sensible 'debates' taking place?

The debates I see on here and social media tend to be, 'he's ****', 'never gonna be good enough', 'not LFC standard', 'get rid'.

Only have to check this very thread. Plus the comments on social media when Jones renewed his contract were sickening.

Patience with younger players pays off, who knew.

I think most people know this. The debate is to what extent a side that is looking to win the league (when there’s so little margin for error) can afford to carry players who aren’t at the required level, but need to play games to develop and get there. It’s about balance.

Looks like this is his coming of age season.

Our most improved player thus far. The over the top criticism of some of our players can be ridiculous at times. Klopp's track record shows that most of his players improve and contribute positively.

A few didn’t that’s for sure

He oozes class.

And he is so good on the ball. Stays so calm. Barnet stands up to bad weather better than Salahs.

All weather soul glow

[Rigadon]

Fantastic to watch him establish himself as such a key player. made up

really good player. Him and Mac our best midfielders. The underrated players that do everything so well.

Anyone that can’t see his importance to our team doesn’t know footy.
