Hello Pirate!
Look at the stats of the matches without Lucas. Only two wins. You do not have to score to win matches. Lucas' presence offers stability in the midfield. Today for instance he was pressing high and won some brilliant tackles which lead to counter attacks.
If Lucas was so poor 4 consecutive managers (Benitez, Roy, Kenny and BR) won't have made him their first choice CDM.

in the last 6 weeks Liverpool remained unbeaten in 12 out of 13 matches in all competition. The only match we lost was against ManU when Joe Allen replaced Lucas. I am excited to see Joe Allen coming back when Lucas leaves.
RedHustle, so you mean Markovic, Borini and Shaqiri all play in the same position? Haven't you been following the news of Gerrard's imminent departure which will leave us without any world class player by the end of this season!!

I think that was a plausible explanation. There can be two possibilities:
1) So called 'mutual agreement': Rodgers was asked about what went wrong. He then said that his coaching staff (including his good old company Pascoe) are not good enough. - if this was true, Rodgers is a big damn culprit who puts his trusted person on line when trouble crops up. But I doubt FSG would be that much gullible.
2) FSG have decided to make a massive change in the backroom and bring in a DoF who would run the show. If that makes Rodgers to leave, they really don't bother.
Either way, Rodgers apologists should reconsider their unconditional pledge toward him.
We are still in 4 tournaments. We need depth. and lucas is not a squad player now, he is a regular starter. Letting him go right now without replacement will be a crime.
{Ed002's Note - Can is his replacement. Liverpool are not using a large number of players they have.}
