      I've seen many shouts for Grujic to be given a chance in the forum, but I'm really not convinced he's good enough.

      That's also because we're sick of our midfielders who are ahead of him. Part of us are crying for some change.

      Yeah I understand that mate, and to be honest I haven't seen a whole lot of Grujic, but apart from the League Cup last season (Spurs I think?) when he got an assist if I'm not mistaken, he hasn't really impressed me much. If he played as our DM I think we'd be even worse defensively.

      Have you watched him in the U23's playing in the no 6 role mate?

      He sure looks a player to me.

      What have we got to lose at this stage we're a mess as it is we'll be out of the top 4 race soon if we continue as we're going why not give him a game or two to show his worth?

      Not sure what his main role in midfield is, but vs Utd, he was playing as the #6, and he sure as hell showed he can shift the ball from deep. Also looks very composed.

      Don't get the calls for him to play either. So far he has only looked promising in friendlies. He has looked very average in every cup game / league game I've seen him play in. Too erratic, too many unnecessary fouls. Not writing the lad off of course, he has everything to become a really good player, just has to cut out the little moments of madness. Throwing him in our current midfield would only make matters worse I think.

      I did watch him for U23's yesterday and was pretty surprised to see him in the #6 role. I think under Klopp that's where his future is. I don't see him as an #8 in our midfield. Big difference being that he clearly just bossed the United players around because of how big and strong he is, he doesn't have that advantage when playing in the PL. As Diego said, it'd be stupid to put the young lad in as a #6 in the first team. His positioning still needs a lot of work and that's one of the main issues in the current midfield. Putting him there won't solve anything. Plus he's a card magnet, you can't have that as a #6 in our system. I agree that he does look a player though, he's still very raw and young, but a lot of very positive things about his overall play (great passing range from deep, good shot, natural tackler, ...)

      Still feel this fella needs one more loan move at a proper club in order for him to develop properly.
      Love to see him go out in January, for 6 months, to a team in the Premier League where he can play week in week out at this leagues level of intensity.
      Think he desperately needs it.

      Probably best thing for him as he is going to improve by playing with the U23's

      BTW I still insist he is better than Milner as a CM......

      As some one above said, great to loan him out BUT only to the right club.
      I would want to keep him in the premiership and hopefully loan him to a team where he wouod get a lot of games.

      I have a friend who is a season ticket holder, but he also supports Liverpool ;D. I will have to get regular updates from him, but F**k me, Warnock? Let's hope he doesn't F**k him up!

      I get the same feeling.  Wish the loan had happened at the start of the season.  It will be hard for him to settle mid-season, which may result in him not getting the minutes he desperately needs to develop....

      Will be really good for him to get regular football. Must be so frustrating for a young player to sit on the bench constantly.

      Think he's got some potential, wouldn't write him off. He looks a bit immature imho, like a rabbit in the headlights when he comes on. Just needs to settle down, play some ball, and grow up.   Then come back when he's on fire :)
