But he's got that great "Character" 007 mate, that adds on about 5m on top ;)
{Ed007's Note - We've got enough characters up here. I jus can't see Liverpool selling their best player this summer.}

DM/ CM - Can, Hendo, Milner, Grujic, Allen, Stewart
AM/ Inside Forward/ Winger - Firmino, Lallana, Coutinho, Ojo, Ibe, Markovic
I think Lucas long term future is at CB under Klopp.
I think the Pre-season battles: will be between Grujic and Stewart, Ibe and Markovic. Depending on who wins the battle you will see some movement, aka Ibe going out on loan or Markovic being sold.
I think it will be up to Allen if he is happy coming of the bench.

With Mignolet stuggles I was thinking between the sticks wouldn't be a bad idea Irish mate, he has shown to be more than adapt at keeping the ball out the net ;)

Its not even close when you compare Henderson to Can, Hendo is the superior athlete, better close control, bigger goal threat, better passing in confined spaces, leader of the team, better positionally, larger passing range and in terms of pressing the best in the entire squad. Don't get me wrong I really enjoy watching Can, be he isn't anywhere near the player Hendo is yet.
But there are some things which Can provides that Hendo doesn't which is those bone crunching slide tackles, Shoulder barging opposition players just to let them know your there, strong aerial challenges, breaking the game open with a 10-20 yard run with the ball. Very Fundamental things that just lift the moral of a team. All things that incidentally fans also love to see, hence why you read articles raving about him.
The problems we have right now is lack of goals from midfield and a player who can control the tempo of a game, Hendo is the biggest goal threat when Milner and Can play, Milner can't play DM and when Can plays there he leaves big gaps. So Hendo has to play DM, we solve a bit of the problem when Lallana plays in terms of goal threat instead of Milner, but then we aren't as stable defensively.
Going forward I think we have two options one is to get a DM who can offer the same things Hendo does in that position, and push he further forward with Can and hope they offer us a greater goal threat. Or the second option is to bring in a Lampard/ Gerrard type player who can get you 10-15 goals a season and keep Hendo playing DM, I would love to see Ross Barkley, but that's dreamland.
I will say this though, the last couple of games with Hendo and Can we have been physically dominating teams in midfield, something I haven't seen in a Liverpool team since my memories of being a Liverpool Fan.
