      I'll always have a soft spot for Jonjo after he told Fergie to F**k off 😂

      Likewise. Always rated him as a footballer as well.

      Would not mind seeing this fella back at Anfield. Lovely footballer

      Could not see the reasoning for his departure.

      Shelvey works on a different wavelength to most midfielders,
      which is why he's so great and frustrating in equal measure.

      Sees a pass that very few will & loses his man under pressure defensively.
      Would be an ideal 10 in a team stacked with defensive midfielders...

      Didn't Carra say in an interview it was to do with his lack of discipline?

      Still would have to look at a cheeky bid if Newcastle go down.

      Lack of discipline, not following managers orders, generally being a tw*t.

      Didn't Gerrard collar him when he first arrived and told him to stop giving it billy big bollocks, saying he'd be out the door F***ing quick if he carried on like he was.

      I agree. Good player, but no where is he good enough to play under Klopp and for a CL club.

      I kind of disagree as a Shelvey on top form is good enough but his form is probably too erratic to guarantee that.
