Apparently Rogers was happy with him at Liverpool but changed the system to a back 3.
Here's hoping Rafa and his staff can get the best out of him.
I saw that as well, it slightly reassured me actually.

Even if he was crap in the highlights i saw with him in the team.

But as others have said they all were. Still wouldn't have gone for him myself but he's a player Rafa wants and he clearly thinks he can get best out of him.
