What an absolute mess
It’s hard not to feel a little aggrieved by our former skipper’s frankly atrocious behaviour in recent months.
After helping secure our first league title in over three decades – not to mention countless additional honours – the now 33-year-old opted to call time on his Anfield career in favour of the riches of the Middle East.
