Naby Keita

[Doc_Piptorious]

I don't agree that Keita or Henderson are weak links but we are one midfielder away from having the perfect squad.

Won’t be Bissouma as he’s signing for Spurs.

[Irishnev]

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.

Sums it up perfectly for me

[Big-Red-Ed]

I've been very critical of him. Mostly because I thought we were getting a worldie. He isn't that but he's still a good player. Even maybe a good squad player. But in the context of where we are now we need much better as a starter. He will have value for potential buyers and that's maybe why he might leave. Klopp does seem to rate him though

Its obvious we need an number 8 with so much more than Henderson/Keita but not sure lashing out at them helps.

My concern Klopp will want to leave room for Jones/Elliott to progress rather than bring someone else in until Ox/Milner have left.

We do, but "lashing out" come on

Say he's ****e in just in jest, he's a decent enough player. Yeah I don't think him missing a shot suddenly changes people's opinions, you either rate him or you don't. We have had 4 years to make up our mind & people's minds were well made up before that shank. We need better than Hendo, Keita, Ox and Milner in our midfield and I'm sure we will sort that out

[SB]

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.

I think that the two number 8 positions need strengthening in some form (be that better players replacing existing ones or another option to come in and rotate with them giving more competition)

Thiago, Keita and Henderson have had a tenancy to miss games through injury. Thiago is a quality player but we can't always get him on the pitch, even when he isn't carrying a knock you feel we need to wrap him in cotton wool. Henderson is a great leader and as much as I like him and I don't mean this to sound disrespectful but I feel we are more having him on the pitch for his leadership than his playing ability. Keita is decent enough, this was his best season, but I still feel he has been inconsistent, you see him have a good couple of games and think right that's it that's the player we signed, then he's average or anonymous again for a few games then out of the side.

[Liverpool]

Agreed… didn’t think I was lashing out though? As I said they’re both good players.

not you, lots of our fans in general pick on the weakest link

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.

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.

Yeah, I don't disagree with that.
