      As a manager - would you want him returning to the club? If it dosent work out you can be almost guaranteed that he will deliver a cheap shot...

      Is a player like that worth the risk? For a Messi or Suarez yes - you take the rough with the smooth, but for Lazar - im not so sure...

      Agree mate.  I personally don't like that attitude and like you say a lot of us make exceptions for players that deserve it.   He doesn't come across the sort of player that is worth it.

      I'd prefer to have players with a little more fight in them at the club. He gets dropped so he wants to leave? Players wearing the red jersey should have to fight for it!

      Dropped from the squad not the team with no explanation

      Nah, he's not. HOw many games did he play for us in his proper position?

      Some times you have to use your head to get answers.  He played very poorly for us and instead of blaming the manager he could have easily watched the highlights of his performances and would have got his answer that is if he did know.   He is still young and hopefully he will prove himself, but having cheap shots won't get him up the ladder faster.

      Again, he played about three or four times further forward. He came on when we got twatted by City and looked bright, he was excellent against Spurs at Anfield and scored, he was probably our best player against Arsenal, but was hooked, played well against Basel until his sending off, etc.

      One thing that annoyed me was that he was always the first sub and often he was taken off at half time regardless of how well he was doing. He would have decent games and be hooked at half time. That is going to do nothing for his confidence.

      He's 21 years old and do one of the top rated young talents in the world.  Can we not give him a second chance ???

      Is that the Basil game where it looked at first glance he was trying scratch a player and got sent off for.   Listen man he may have potential, he may yet make it age is still on his side and if he does make it hopefully it is here.   But but he was not in the squad because he wasn't good enough and there were many players that were ahead of him.   His overall performances didn't warrant him to be automatically be chosen for the 17 man squad.  Having cheap shots while still being in the early stages of development and trying to prove that he is a player good enough to play for top team in one of the hardest league in the world isn't the recipe for success.  Whether you like or dislike or even hate the previous manager it doesn't mean it excuses a young hopeful to have a pop at him trying to get browning points.   

      Most young players are played out of position to get that opportunity.  Why should he get special treatment.  That is not an excuse he was poor in his first spell.   Hopefully he does well in Turkey and comes back a better player.

      I was thinking about Lazar the other day. I haven't seen him play for the best part of a year so like everyone else I've forgotten all the times he was sh!t. The only thing I can remember about him is a sidefoot volleyed goal in an FA Cup game, he looked as surprised as everyone else when it went in. Because though he hasn't played for us for a while, it's high time we all got a bit nostalgic for him (it's the best way of getting back into everyone on the forums good books, don't play).

      He IS young and he WASN'T signed by Rodgers apparently, which means he will be given a fair crack by most. For my part though I have come to the conclusion after much deliberation that he isn't good enough. I think Jordan Ibe has shown 500% more in a Liverpool shirt than Markovic ever did, and has more potential too. As he is pretty much home-grown though and doesn't have an exotic name and haircut it'll take a while for him to win everyone over.

      He was sh*t for us, I agree, but he's 20/21 and barely played in his natural position. He deserves a second chance if the likes of Moreno, Mignolet, Lovren etc. all got numerous chances.

      Its the same with half of our players, we have no idea how good they are, because we are so awful and they are all play like strangers.
      Rodgers it seemed didn't rate him, but then again he played Can at right back in a 3, which in hindsight was his better position as he is F***ing awful in the centre of midfield.
      Just a load of mis management piling up on top of piss poor buys and decision making. If we were a normal business we would be bankrupt

      Under Brendan maybe for a whole host of reason's. Let Jürgen treat him like a new signing and see how he get's on. Clean slate and all that.

      Behave yourself, he gets dropped for no reason and with no explanation by the manager, of course he's going to want to leave, anyone with any dignity or self respect, ie not Jose Enrique, would.

      Pretty sure he was dropped because of his performances, didn't take a genius or an explanation to figure that out. Yes, he was played out of position but you still have to perform. Just because of his price tag doesn't mean he gets to play wherever he wants.

      I hope he still has a future here because he looks like he has a lot of potential but he needs to grow up, he wont get anywhere with that attitude.

      It's an intersting question ;D. "Degrees of sh*tness", we've certainly been through the full spectrum these last few seasons.

      He wasn't sh*t and he'd definitely improve the current team if only because he has pace.

      Moreno has more pace than the road runner but sadly his brain cant handle it. You need a brain first then pace second. Lazar needs a chance to prove himself as I don't think he was given that opportunity yet
