    How is he the oldest player in the squad by a good 3 and a half years yet still the most immature by a mile?

    Wouldn’t be surprised if his next video is titled: “I got caught speeding on the motorway and you won’t believe what happened next!”

    Firstly: how the **** did he plead 'not guilty'?!?

    Secondly: Does that mean he already had 6 active points on his licence, or am I missing some new reg about getting 6 in one go?

    He already had 6 apparently. And who knows about the 'not guilty'... I think a lot of footballers do it as a hail mary and hope their solicitor can find a loophole.

    Tactical "not guilty" so he can stretch it out and delay the hearings to keep driving in the meantime I'd imagine. He was caught speeding almost a year ago so has dragged it out so he's been able to drive up and down from work for most of the season.

    Pretty much. Always going to get a ban and a fine, probably could have got a smaller fine if he'd accepted it straightaway but hardly a problem for a multi millionaire!

    The sooner he leaves the better. Part of the bad smell from relegation part one.

    But no when he probably needs to be fully focused and ready for action won't be - guess he will have some sort of club driver.

    I can see him rocking up on his bike to a service station somewhere!

    This in the same week that the Liverpool supporting bell end he gave tickets in the home end to is revealed as being a racist piece of ****.

    Can’t wait until this moron is nothing to do with our club anymore.

    Can we add the 6 points onto our season? We're still going down but at least makes it look more competitive.

    We’d be out of the relegation zone at least !

    I wonder what he would do if he got banned from bike riding? Would he change his account to "The Walking GK with a Bad POV"?

    No match day videos but did one of the in house training game the squad had.

    Ended 2-2.

    Masina, WTE, Kabelese and Sierralta seemed to be the defence for one team.

    Interesting - so could that suggest a first-choice defence of Kamara, Samir, Nkoulou, Femenia for Liverpool?

    Not sure if he was fit by then - would be a risk after so long out .

    Ben desperate to go viral again as he pokes a bit of fun at Steven Gerrard whilst grinning away in a post match interview after a defeat. Utter insufferable ****.

    So he aggravates an existing injury playing a game with Hashtag United (people can say we don't know for sure but he clearly did). Now he's done a video with these bells throwing himself around on an artificial pitch. There's only six weeks of the season left, you'd think he would wait until the joyous day he becomes a free agent. Then he can hang out with teenagers all summer and make whatever videos he likes.

    Never been so happy of the prospect of a player leaving the club. Can’t stand him.

    I don't know what's worse, him trying to hang out with teenagers or the state of his kicking in that video.

    The surprising and tragic thing about the Sidemen is that they are all, in actual fact, approaching 30 years of age.

    In his first spell with us he had a mighty hoof on him, the same when he arrived here for his second spell, what the hell has happened to his kicking since?

    Tbf he had a mighty hoof on him in the video as he put it out of the stadium twice. Problem was he was taking penalties instead of goal kicks!

    It honestly looks like he's given up, purely going through the motions now. His kicking is so half-hearted, he just lazily swings a foot at it and if it goes in the direction of a Watford player then great.

    Seems to fit the mentality of a man who’s about to hold the record for number of relegations from the Prem.

    Not many videos recently- has he even given up on that ?

    Probably thinking about what train home he needs to get.
