Too old now. 2 years past it.

Nothing he can do about aging but definitely something the club can do about giving blokes in their late 20's 4+1 deals. Not Jakes fault, i'd sign it in a flash too.

[Dexy]

He's the best we have in midfield , that says it all about our recruitment .

The best!  He is the worst.

TGH is the best CM we have for me. By far.

[Dexy]

The best!  He is the worst.

He's finished , the brain is still there but physically he's gone .Whose better ? ....the rest are rubbish .

[Dexy]

Still new to it mate , he will be in time no doubt .

[gazberg]

Still new to it mate , he will be in time no doubt .

I think he will get better if allowed to play there regularly.

[skyclad99]

The best!  He is the worst.

He is better than Mowatt by a mile....

[Dexy]

Got a lot to learn but agreed , my point is Livermore is still our best CM which is shocking because he should have been moved on 2 years ago .

I'd still have TGH ahead of Livermore but JL is somehow our 2nd best CM which as you say is literally insane.

[GREGMT]

Yeah right.  At least Mowatt has contributed 4 goals.  Liver. Ore has contributed 2 sending offs.

[GREGMT]

Livermore is hopeless, my heart sinks everytime I see him pull on the WBA jersey.

Ismael triggering his extension was the single biggest mistake.

I wonder if Livermore's new 1 year contract has a wages flex down built in the event of relegation to league 1?

[graka]

Livermore has been sub standard for 3 years and the balance of our engine room also for the same.
The only manager who recognised this was fat Sam.
Any manager who plays a mix of Livermore/sawyers/mowatt/reach should be consigned to the dinosaur museum
I actually felt Livermore did ok after furlongs dismissal last night but going forward he should be a bench warmer at best next season if we can't get rid.

[bosh]

Everyone keeps on saying bench warmer - yet always appears first on the teamsheet. We must have another candidate for captain.

[SmethDan]

You must be feeling quite down by now, 'they' say chilled acoustic music and mindfulness can be of comfort.......... give them a go on our next match day when Jake gets the nod again .

Who though? The fact he managed to keep his head last night and avoided a booking whilst putting his point across to the ref shows he has the qualities needed as a captain.

He should be a sub next season along with others like Mowatt & Reach  but I've no problem with him being captain.

[Groovephil]

He was the best midfielder last night. That is the problem.

Is this satire? The ref could have sent him off for dissent and took pity on him. Bruce was screaming at him to calm down. His job is to play football, not to engage in running commentary with officials.

This season he has managed no goals, two assists, two red cards and an own goal. Failure.

O Shea if he Is to be a future captain

Cut the sarcasm out.
 You say the ref could have sent him off, yet didn't even book him surely if he "took pity on him" he would have booked him if he wanted to save him from a red card?

 His job is to play football but also to engage with officials, that's what the captain does.

Great foot to foot dexterity though. Would have taken hours for a clogger to attain that level of technique, credit......where......it's.....due .

[KN22]

Jake is not great, he is far from it. However, I still think it sad that, among the worst squad of players seen at the club for 20 years, he gets more flack than any other player. It is just not justified in my view.

[iwastherein68]

League 2 standard if he's lucky.

He wouldn't get near Peterborough's team.

A trier though so he's liked.  I'd be a trier if on his wages.

But for your constant whining about Livermore, you would'nt be liked 

[GREGMT]

Mate, I can use tact and diplomacy at the right time, believe me.  However, this is an open forum where everyone bleeds blue and white.  I call it as I see it.

I am not totally against older players if they add value.  I just don't see anywhere enough from Livermore to make me stand up and say this guy is worth keeping.

You must remember that the playing of any old player (even Cristiano Ronaldo) means that he is blocking the path of developing young talent.  That's it in a nutshell.  And yes I'm sure Livermore is a good bloke off the pitch.

His behaviour in the first half last night was hysterical, the ref took pity on him as he'd already just sent off Furlong, but he deserved at least a yellow for dissent, he was screaming in the refs face for quite a while, he'd completely lost it. The ref, realised he'd made a mess of overruling their throw-in which led to the corner and their goal so was carrying a guilt trip; hence he was a lot more lenient than he needed to be.

The only thing Livermore is any good for at this point is the pre-match coin toss. The only positive thing I can say about him is that I'd still pick him ahead of Molumby who is league one standard.
