I agree Boo and JR , that he will be very difficult to replace , but he would not have been playing until Nov. the media over here were going to make it impossible for him with their hounding and hatred. He would have become a huge distraction for Liverpool . Rodgers is more about team than one player ( even the best player in the World ). I expect Liverpool to continue to invest heavily and strengthen. It is a big shame that the biting incident happened ..... But eventually a club has to move on.
