      He plays better with the hair and beard. It must give him confidence, especially when oether players mistake him for a continental player. Many players have been much worse after a haircut. If I remember right, Drogba got a haircut and was not very good until his hair grew back again.

      If the club is so impressed with his play then why have they not signed him up to a new contract?  Don't give me that bollocks about "oh but Jürgen said we will wait until the summer," we have signed players to new contracts during the season many times before.

      Looks to me like they are talking him up to try to increase his value for potential buyers.

      Why is it bollocks? Because you said so? That makes absolutely no sense, just because you try and present something as a fact, doesn't make it one.

      It could be Joe's choice as well, been more than a player or three that have put off contract talks until the summer break. As for me, I think he's off, as I believe he wants regular football and I don't think he'll get that here. Happy if he wants to stay and play a bit part though.

      It doesn't have to be a bit part though does it? Klopp himself admitted this week that he's learned to rotate his squad. We've seen it this season were the league, cup and European games have each had different teams playing in them so he could quite easily find himself playing a major role and getting just as many games as Milner or Can as the squad is rotated. Given his ability to control a game he seems a more natural choice for starting in European away fixtures with other, more dynamic players figuring at home. We need a big squad to compete across all fronts and a talented squad to do that successfully. There is nothing to assume he needs to play a bit part role with us. I just hope he, and the club, realise that.

      :lmao:

      That has to be Darren Farley right?

      I think so. He has a few others that are basically the same thing -- did one of the penalty Wee Joe scored a while back that was pretty funny :)

      Wasn't West Broms goal today from Allen being careless and kicking it to West Brom? Was not in match thread, but it looks like Klopp got it right to leave him out EL final if he is gonna do stuff like that again.

      Riby is right on this. Allen missed out in the final. Everyone said it in the live thread.

      I think Allen has been hard done by under Klopp.

      Klopp should have realised Moreno wasn't good enough for a Europeon cup final, played Milner at LB and started Allen.

      Or alternatively taken Cou off early in the 2nd for Joe when it was obvious he was adding zero value in the match.

      Joe deserved better given his performances this season.

      I agree. I also think Klopp doesn't fancy him and we'll be seeing Joe at another club :(

      I sadly agree with the last couple of posts by Baz and Monkey. I don't see Allen at the club for very much longer and while I think this is a real shame I think it's because he believes other players he is looking looking at (Zielinski, Grujic) have a higher roof of performance/greater potential. That is a risk particularly given the performances Allen has shown since Christmas. Regardless of what happens he's served Liverpool with dignity and has shown his class under Klopp.

      I love Klopp as much as the next person but we can't afford to be waiting until the game is over to be making key changes.

      Hindsight is a great thing but who can say with certainty Allen would have made the difference.
