      Best game of his Liverpool career so far. Shame about the Boly handball stopping him from getting his first assist as Mo looked to be on his way.

      He's improving and if he continues, I would keep him and Nat with Gomez and VVD and would sell Matip.

      It will cause some people to explode (what about the net spend!), but it would definitely be an option given how well they are performing. I think it's 3 clean sheets in the 3 games they have started.

      Fraid I'm starting to look for some "humble pie" !! Never saw them last couple of decent performances from this lad.I'm now thinking with Virgils guidance, he could be a bit "special".

      More like release Matip as I really can't see anyone taking a punt on him now due to age and injury record.

      We need to think with our minds not with our heart. Matip gave us all but he's pass his best fitness-wise.

      Not an issue with me.

      Nope. Too small (1,86m) and too slow. You can't change both parameters at this point. He'll be average.

      2 cm taller than Ramos as well, yeah yeah he's a c**t but still a superb CB.  BTW I'm not convinced he's too slow, but even if he is he can counter that with positioning.

      Surely one of the south coast clubs is in need of a defender?? ;-)

      Yup I think keeping in mind his age is crucial when you analyse him because its easy to fall into the trap of expecting amazing performances week-in week-out wither its because of our recent run of form or because we all have the VVD-Gomez partnership in mind as closest comparison.

      He's young (I would say super young for a CB)

      He's just playing his first games in arguably the best league in the world

      He's not coming from playing some great football with a team competing for a CL spot in the bundesliga

      He's been given like 3 or 4 different CB partners so far all while he's supposed to be adapting to the PL

      My point is there's a lot going on at the same time here and a lot of it is nothing to make his life easier. Despite that. I think an honest look at the kid points in the direction of very decent potential (not saying he's the next VVD but he's definitely a good looking project)

      I hope Ozan has a crap game today along with the other Turkish players ;-)
      I'll certainly be keeping a close eye on him.

      Only 20 so inconsistent performances are to be expected. There's a good player there for sure.

      Yeah I'm not sure what people expect of Ozan after a shaky first two games he's looked the part for us since.
