So one good season makes him immune from criticism? He’s been atrocious this season.

Also, there is a difference between abuse, which I haven’t seen, and criticism.

No 100% not, all players can be criticised. But, in reality he has had a few bad games and it seems a bit dramatic. And i didn't say he was being abused did i?...The tone sadly with our fans can quickly turn from criticism to abuse fairly quickly though.

Fair enough bue, dont disagree. Digne does fight and doesnt give up but that should be standard for any footballer at this level and generally is.

The difference between fighting/never giving up and leadership is a whole new level.

Its accepted Delph was disrespecting everton fans on twitter immediately after our worst result in many, many years. The club have said they are arranging a meeting with him. I dont care if he has a duke of edinburgh gold award - he is clearly everthing a leader isnt.

We cant all be perfect mate. Delph captained a team for Pep he has been England Captain the list goes on. He made a mistake, doesn't mean he isn't a leader. So you saying 'he is clearly everything a leader isnt' is a bit dramatic. Have you read Sir Alex book? he did a lot worst that a twitter spat and would you say he wasn't a leader?

He’s had more than a few bad games. We’re more than half way through the season and he has been genuinely terrible in pretty much every game.

Not read it but everything Fergie did in terms of football was carefully considered in relation to how his reactions would be interpreted by others. He led the club in every way possible. No one was above the club, no player was anywhere on the radar as important as the manager and he knew he had to respect the fanbase completely. I have never heard him once talk negatively about Unites fans reactions ie. most wanting him sacked before that cup game etc etc.

Delph is the exact opposite. He clearly knows nothing of our history or the culture of football in Liverpool. How anyone with an ounce of a brain cell, never mind leadership qualities never mind goes on social media after the most humiliating defeat in decades but makes fun of our supporters. Give me strength.

Ps. The captain thing is a non issue these days as is playing for your country. Tom Davies has captained our club! Michael Keane has played for England. Good grief - RIP hopefully Howard Kendall and Alf Ramsay.

Was that really needed to put in the end?

I wouldn't trust him to get a round in never mind with a couple of hundred million quid to buy players.

Talked to 7 supporters though, so a free pass on his disastrous signings.

Hes still brought in all our best players.

That cant be denied.

Every player hes bought has improved the squad, in most games the first team.

This season our best defender has been Holgate.

Up front it has been DCL, neither of which he has bought.

Our best midfielder is a tough one to pick as they have been awful, so will say Brands has improved that.

Overall his signings this season have played awful and one of the worst this season has been Digne. Think he will turn it around as he was class last season.

Brands take what he wants though, and this January window he has taken 7 fans to a meeting room for a cup of tea and some biscuits.
