    I just wonder if he'll fancy it, though.

    Yeah, looks like he's easily got another season in him after this. When Jozo is fully fit, we can afford to give Kolo a rest every so often as well if we're having 2 games a week on a fairly regular basis.

    Just delighted we have him here, regardless of how long he stays.

    Think he looks to be enjoying himself, also really likes playing under Rodgers. With Champions League games to come, and games like yesterday, I don't think we need to worry about that.

    Great signing, funny that at 35 when you watch him you dont even think that he's an old player he's more mobile and fitter than guys like McManus, Caldwell, Majstorovic, Rogne etc who all done ok at worst for us.

    Could play on for a while yet as long as he maintains good fitness.

    I hope you're right because if he leaves we may need several defenders next Summer.

    Sviatchenko is fine, but Simunovic is still an injury concern and Ambrose doesn't have a future. It's unclear how things will go for Boyata, and O'Connell is probably only ever going to be a back-up type.

    I don't think we'll see Jozo play for us again. Full fact we accepted a bid, rumours of a failed medical and him saying he's fully fit and the club not saying anything or even acknowledging it... I think he's *.

    I think we might see a couple of defenders leave in January and one brought in. Ambrose is out of contract next year isn't he? If so he'll be gone in January I'd imagine.

    Kolo, Erik, Lustig, Jozo and a new centre half would be ideal. Then if Kolo does leave next year we still have options.

    Erik is the main man, Lustig can fill in and O'Connell can do a job when called upon. Efe will be offski soon and there are huge question marks over the other two. W

    Regardless of whether or not Kolo goes, we'll need someone in the Summer window.

    :50:

    Never rated Boyata. Or should I say, never been convinced.

    You'll get another season out him no bother at all.

    He's every bit as quick as he always was.

    Think just resting him for Man City. He's been training I think, he's good to go.
