The 24-year-old, now on loan at Borussia Dortmund, told AS: "I did not fail at Liverpool. Brendan Rodgers wanted me to play as a number 10. But I do not play behind the strikers.

"I talked to him and asked him why he was playing me there. It is not my real position. The coach could not answer me … Still, no regrets. To play at Anfield was a wonderful experience.

"And maybe if I had not gone there I would not have been able to return to Borussia Dortmund. For that, I am happy. Thank God I have left Brendan Rodgers".

Match-fixing to ensure a player is sold? It happens
The ground, a typically soulless Soviet-style concrete arena, attracted a mere 200 or so supporters for this end-of-season top league fixture – probably just as well considering what happened next.

The striker I was watching played a blinder. Every ball forward went to him; he danced past defenders and had shot upon shot on goal. When he buried his first one, the president nudged me and said 'Not bad eh?' with a meaningful smile, and he kept on grinning. Although I lost count of how many times the player ended up one on one with the opposing goalkeeper, a total of two goals and two assists – away from home against what, according the league table, was supposedly the stronger side – would impress any scout … except that I was becoming increasingly uneasy about events as the game unfolded.

I think his treatment was unfair at Liverpool, but that was uncalled for.

To be fair, it's not like Nuri put up a lot of fight for his place. Enrique, Henderson and Downing all proved themselves out of position, and look at the good it's done them.

That being said, he's not really much of a Number 10, and I think we could have played him in his more natural position a bit more whilst Lucas was out, as long as we had Henderson or Allen doing the legwork.

It's a shame we're probably going to be focusing on Defenders (and the odd forward) this transfer window, as we could really do with a more physical midfielder with good energy and work-rate, like Diame or Toure for example, to fill the shirt Sahin vacated. That would improve our squad massively.

We have Messi, Bale and Brendan impersonated on footy-gaf. We need more of that.

Salazar should change to Cleverley.
