What are people's opinions on moving Milner over to the right and getting a new left back. Milner has shown good awareness at the back and it will put him on his best foot rather than cutting in. Let TAA be his understudy in the cups so he gets more game time with the view to taking over in a season or two. Just need to find a decent left back, they seem to be like unicorns nowadays!

No thanks, Milner is the most dribbled past defender in the league, his crossing his awful and his penalties are skewing most people's views on him. We're upgrading both full back positions this Summer so thankfully I won't ever have to see Milner or Clyne slowing down very possible attack ever again.

Is that true that he's the most dribbled past defender in the league?

His crossing isn't that bad, and it doesn't help that he has to first cut back onto his right foot to deliver an inswinging ball. I'd wager he'd be far more comfortable delivering crosses from his natural side. I don't think his penalty taking ability is skewing anyone's view mate. Really not sure what you're on about there.

Chubney, I think he might do an ok job at RB, but we have an opportunity this summer to seriously upgrade our fullbacks and I suggest we do that rather than put more round pegs in square holes.

Do you want to compete next season and actually challenge for trophies, if so then Milner should be nowhere near the starting 11. SImple as, stop accepting mediocre players.

No more bandaids, please. We need upgrades to both FB positions. Ricardo Perreira for RB or LB and a true LB, both with quality and end product . No more BS with always using stop-gaps.

Seriously how many shoe hornings are we going to do again next season? Do people not want us challenging for trophies any time soon? Let go off your sentiments and look at the bigger picture. Milner will be a back up LB at best next season. Klopp wants two attacking full backs and he will get them this summer. Milner will be a squad player (if he stays) and Clyne will leave (not good enough) .
I would be chuffed with Periera and Mendy/ Bertrand. Sessegnon as well with a loan back to Fulham for next season to eventually replace Milner will be the icing on the cake.

Am I seriously reading 'fans' slating a player who has spent the whole season playing out of position to help the team while keeping our designated left back on the bench. Give your heads a shake gents. Milner has been solid all season, makes crucial tackles, gets forward well, keeps a composed head on the pitch and has a massive influence on the rest of the team. For me he's been one of the players of the season. But for his penalty miss against the Saints he's barely put a foot wrong.

{Ed001's Note - no one is slating him, just pointing out he has not played well since the early part of the season. He was far from solid defensively. He has always been Mr Average, throughout his career. As for massive influence on the team, that is part of the problem, as he cowers away when the going gets tough and hides, which is exactly what you don't want. Nothing wrong with just wanting to play football and not get involved when you are one of the lads, but he has been wearing the armband and that is a major issue.}

I have to disagree with ed001. I think he has been playing out of position on the wrong side of the pitch. I like the team better with Milner in it and RB is up for grabs. If we can get first choice RB then cool, but I would prefer we play Milner for one season and rotate with TAA instead of buying 2nd/ 3rd or 4th choice. Just my opinion.

{Ed001's Note - I have no disagreement with him being on the wrong side of the pitch.}

23 May 2017 08:50:34
Completely agree with your sentiments on milner ed001.

{Ed001's Note - thank you mate. I like him as a person and he is a decent enough back up for a number of positions as a player, but that is all he is.}
