Say what you will he was the only player that consistently got into the box to support Suarez and was unlucky not to get on the scoresheet.
Is Shelvey The Messiah ?

Shelvey has showed glimpses of a top player.
He needs time and he needs not to be pushed to much especially when we are not winning, same goes for Suso and Raheem with the latter looking the most content with being asked a lot despite his tender age.
Shelvey will not be the one dragging us out of this current slump, not many young players will at the highest levels for several good reasons.
Messi probably being one of very few exceptions to the rule - perhaps Ronaldo as well.

The simple fact is we looked a better team when he came on. Ok so he missed a few but that's due to game time. We don't have many midfielders that at least find themselves in goal scoring positions like he does (and I count Gerrard in that) in the 30 mins of game time he had he could've scored 4 times.
He definitely adds a bit more bite into midfield, something we clearly lack. A young lad let's not forget. And his goal record isn't that bad for a central midfielder.
Well said.
He's a very naughty boy.
He's got a long way to go ... but he'll be ok.
Better than Henderson. That's about it, really.
He's not as good as his 'fans' on here say he is, and he's not as bad as his critics on here say he is.
some muppet on here had the balls to compare him to a young zidane....
I thought Zidane was shite when he was young.
He didn't improve til he bought his house in Formby.
Agreed. Suso is much more suited to a central role.
Shelvey's all hype at the minute, does have ability but he has a long way to go.
I'm assuming that you're basing that almost exclusively on today's game because he's been largely anonymous for the last few weeks. Admittedly, Shelvey's form has been poor of late, but I think the danger when you're not doing so well is to blame the team selection. In actuality, the main problem is not so much the team selection, but the players we have to choose from.
Pink would be the best place for that.
