Allen is rubbish and has produced nothing to prove otherwise or to write home about. He may well be a very good footballer, at another club. He should grow a pair. We certainly need better squad players than Allen, Cissokho, Johnson (who seems to have lost it it), Borini (who is thriving at Sunderland which incidentally is his level), and Coates. Lucas is another borderline player who is great when he is good which is too few and far between.
If these players want a future at Liverpool, they must apply themselves much like Henderson did. I'm all for second chances. Winning requires a ruthless streak both on and off the field.
I can't believe no one has ever pointed out that you speak purely in clichés.
