    The reason we have a great win % when Naby plays is because we beat most teams we play & he doesn't usually start vs the best sides in which we have more of a chance of dropping points. We drew 6 games vs the other 3 top sides, here are Naby's mins vs the best teams in the premier league.

    - City x2 games (0 mins)
    - Chelsea x2 games (Played 21 mins)
    - Spurs x2 games (Played 92 mins)

    Even vs the best of the rest:

    - Arsenal x2 games (0 mins)
    - United x2 games (73 mins)
    - West Ham x2 games (89 mins)

    So in the 12 toughest games in the premier league, Naby has played just 275 mins
    Naby can’t win games he doesn’t feature in

    With regards to the ‘toughest games’, we dropped almost as many points to Leicester, Brentford, Brighton and Westham (10) as we did to the rest of the top 6 (12).

    Man City also dropped 11 points to teams outside the top 6, only dropping 10 points to teams in the top 6.

      Em, yes and he can't lose or draw them either. Also, why didn't he feature & why does he average about 50% less games per season as everyone else in the last 4 seasons? Unavailable for half the games in your season for 4 seasons on the bounce is just another stick to beat him with too.

      When you play the 3 other best sides in the league, there is a far greater chance of losing or dropping points than playing say the 3 worst teams, Norwich, Burnley, Watford .. in which he played every game apart from the Watford home game. So, if Naby played those games vs the 3 best sides in the league, chances are that win rate would be a lot lower. When you play at LFC, your win rate is always going to be high, when you play for LFC vs mostly poorer opposition, your win rate is always going to be high.

        Or we might have picked up more points and won the league.

          Mmmmmm. We drew vs City which cost us the league and Naby didn’t start the game.
          Are we winning?

            Because Klopp doesn’t trust him.

              Yeah but as already pointed out, we dropped almost as many points to teams outside the top 6 as we did to teams in the top 6. This was the same for Man City.

              It's the dropped points against these lesser teams that we often look back on and think 'if only'.

                That wasn’t the point.

                  I know, but everything else is kind of irrelevant by comparison.

                        It's all gone a bit like a low energy twitter argument in here. None of you are for turning but happy to slowly go round in circles.

                          Naby is a good player, but end of the day, whether he or hendo plays, they are the weakest link, if it’s otherwise first 11.

                          If we want to try to improve, that’s the position where we need to. We have the best keeper, best back 4 and best front 3, in the world. Thiago and Fabinho are both world class when fit. It’s that third spot in midfield where we have a lot of room for improvement.

                            feels like because he had an incredibly **** shot in the final that will live long in the memory, that now means his season was awful amongst a sizeable chunk of our fans.

                            I think he had an ok season, and I hope he builds on it next year. So many false dawns with him.

                              Yeah, I don't disagree with that.

                                he’s probably been the player that I’ve been most pleasantly surprised with. Have to admit, last summer I wanted him and ox booted out, and would have loved us to give gini what was needed, to stay. I think I was right about ox, but naby definitely proved me wrong- He had his best season with us, and hopefully he can keep it up, if he stays injury free.

                                But as I said above, I think he’s the weakest link (in first 11, not the squad). That’s not having a go at him, it’s just the extremely high standards that we have at the moment- our first 11 has 10 world class players, and naby/hendo.
