Lucas Leiva (Liverpool > S.S. Lazio)

Looks like Klopp is grooming him for the CB role, great reader of the game the position is natural to him.

Yeah, should be moved to centre back full time now. Was man of the match against the best attack in the league.

Boss as F**k.

He's our true captain.

I love Lucas to bits. I still don't like to seem him win man of the match votes, he shouldn't, not given the talent of others in the squad. Gave up on footballing heroes a long time ago, Lucas comes damn close to changing my mind at times.

I'd be more than happy with him at centre back next season.

The only logical choice for captain!  Henderson did ok tonight, but Lucas showed true captain material!

Lad is Boss... Felt for him when his penalty was saved.

Along with Clyne thought Lucas was outstanding tonight

Lucas has so much composure and awareness in which all of our midfielders are poor at, so once Lovren or Skrtel returns, I would move him back in midfield as we need leadership and quality in the middle of the park.

Absolute bargain considering what Rafa paid for him...

If Rodgers had his way he would have been in Turkey now.

The unofficial leader of the team.

Played brilliantly again yesterday, was my motm.

Can't see him going anywhere in the summer.

He was offered big bucks to go to China last window and turned it down.

I wonder what the process is for making somebody a captain. I guess each manager has their ways of doing so but I wonder who would be made captain if Klopp asked each of the senior players to vote. Something tells me Lucas would be well up there.

He doesn't need the armband mate.

A natural leader.

Disgusting isn't it? Considering the importance Leon Britton had in his Swansea side you'd think he'd appreciate Lucas being that type of player but 10x better.

Wheres that from mate? Havent seen it anywhere.

Fantastic game from Lucas, I call for him to be Captain as well.

Brilliant player our Lucas.

Would consider moving him to CB permanently.

I would even consider asking him to teach our so called natural centre halves proper defending lessons. If we have two Lucas at centre back... we could play anyone in goal. Even a clown.

Lucas out for 5 or 6 weeks

Gutted for him and us, the bloody injury crisis continues.

Apparently and I've idea how true it is but he got this taking the penalty, saw a tweet from a reputable source but it was a few days ago when we thought the muscle injury wasn't as bad.

I know exiled says about CB above but we're really struggling in CM now, missing him for both legs of the United tie, well let's just hope the others step up.

Get well soon Lucas!

There is no injury crisis at Liverpool anymore. Sakho is set to return for next game also. Then just Lucas, Stewart, Rossiter, Ings and Gomez on the injury list. Not really a crisis. There is only Europa and League left also, so I am not worried so much. Pretty much best 11 every game till the end now and no more rotation. Allen and Can will cope fine in the middle.

What are we going to do for a centre back now?

Has to be Lovren and Sakho.
