    personally i think he's going to mature like pirlo and the like that actually play their best football in their 30s. His game's never been about speed which will hopefully mean he has a longer career. Top talent and built like a brick shithouse some one said of him when he made his debut at 16.

    Monks a tool for doing it publically.
    He got gifted the managers job and a decent team.
    I fully expect JJ to be still playing when Monk has long gone from top flight management.

    He certainly doesn't seem to have pushed on as much as he should have. Seems to be being pushed down the England pecking order too.

    I've always said he's not intelligent enough as a footballer to make it as a permanent England international. The raw talent is there without doubt but can he push on. I doubt he can. ( cue the Shelvey mafia! )
    I think Monk said what a lot of people think but maybe it wasn't the greatest idea to say it publicly.

    I think Monk is right, absolutely love Jonjo but he's always picked up needless bookings through not just laziness also petulant challenges.

    Now elbow in face of defender missed by ref. Doubt he'll come out for 2nd half. Still twice the player Henderson is.

    But you can appreciate how he was encouraging (pointing) keep possession even if it meant pass it back. Important to frustrate Scousers at home. Mountain to climb now.

    Having seen Paul walsh,Robert Lee, and Paul Elliott either in debuts or youth matches and saying to anyone in earshot they would play for England. (Elliott having to quit after that tackle put paid to his chances)

    With Shelvey i thought he had great talent but was not sure about his temperament and if he could play the simple ball as well as the 30 yard pass.

    Lee Bowyer had bags of talents as a youngster but was a flawed character which hindered his career.

    This seems to be Gary Monks style (like Big Bob on TBH) let see if it works, or JonJo gets the hump?

    Interesting to hear Carragher say he used to do it in training as well and that it was his ill discipline that led to him leaving Liverpool.

    Can understand why Monk thinks that Shelvey is a lazy sod after watching Liverpool's 3rd.
    Never has a man looked less bothered about an opposition player running past them.

    Haven't seen too many Swansea games this season but they've all been very poor with ball retention tonight.

    Shelvey own goal on top of that elbow to top off a horrible game for him.
