      Unfairly he's likely to be remembered for his lack of game time due to injury more than his football....He should be remembered as a very very good footballer.

      Huge shame of a signing this turned out to be, should've done our homework on his history with injuries.....wouldn't have taken long.

      Won't miss him like I'll miss Matip or the others that departed last summer but I thank him for being on this journey with us and good luck to him wherever he ends up.

      Unbelievable player but just wasn't fit enough.

      Was still crucial for us in spells though. Instrumental in our 2021-2022 season where we got so close to winning the lot and his form in the run in the season before was really important to getting us back into the CL.

      Won't miss him. Technically gifted but I never thought he made us much better when we played. He was always tackling recklessly and upfront, his creativity did not benefit our forwards IMO.

      I hope his career ends well.

      Yeah, never really got a proper chance to see what he could bring to us. Too many injuries.

      All the Best Thiago, knowing our luck, you go elsewhere to continue your career and you never get injured again! Hope that's true for you, anyways.

      Injury robbed us too often of his genius.

      Fantastic player who I wish well in his future

      On the coaching staff at Barca.
      Great move for both.

      Lewa - "So how was your time working under Klopp"

      Thiago - "I had the best time, not only a great manager but a great man"

      Lewa - "Speaking from experience, I couldn't agree more"

      I'm glad he had a good time, he wasn't much use to us and he's still not working.

      Apparently was only there to help the new management bed in.

      Would love him involved at the club in some capacity.
