Such a shame, one of our best natural talents (and dressing room characters) with the rare ability to unlock the tightest of defences. It's also a big shame we didn't get to see more of the potent chemistry with his relationship with Pato - with Pato playing out wide left and Walshy linking and feeding his deft moves. It's not over yet though, he's a proper fighter and tough cookie.
Would make an excellent pundit, a proper student of the game and highly eloquent.
At least he'll now get to properly utilise his season ticket at Anfield.
