Best dm in the PL, any lurking Scousers yes better than Fabinho

Problem with Dippers is they have the best keeper , centre back , full backs and front three and the best manager which makes you wonder with all these marvellous world class players why Klippety has won only two trophies of any note in six seasons after spending nearly £500m.
The only reason the media blow smoke up the scousers backside is the number of their lighweight plastic, armchair world wide fans and the amonut of clicks they can attract , its nothing to do with their vastly under achieving football team.

Loved him since day 1 and glad he's blossoming into the all-rounder some wanted to see. His ability to resist a press is unbelievable but he's 2/3 seconds ahead of every opponent right now it seems.

A proper joy to watch which is an odd thing to say about a 'defensive' midfielder!

I'm guessing that the ULTIMATE test will have to wait until a rainy winter's evening when Stoke are back in the PL.

All you lot acting like he's only come good the last couple of months will be back to saying he's shite the second makes a big mistake.

First time I watched in months. He's looking much more active now, directing the passing and movement of others. All you can ask, really. Good god he's so bloody tall now.

Declan Rice has emerged as an English option with a very similair game, a reputation as a leader and organiser with an excellent mentality - and a very, very high ceiling as a player. I wonder if that has helped our lad's motivation.

If games against Burnley, closest to peak Stoke, are any indication, they'll be his favorite opposition :)

He was magnificent against PSG - positional sense, protection of the ball, distribution, and creativity were all as good as you will see. What a player.

It is a way of excusing the error of judgment they made.
