First of all I would like to start off saying he was very poor against YB and was at fault for the 1st goal we conceded as well as the 3rd as he was just ball watching! I don't think there's many defenders on the planet that would dribble around his own keeper and casually poke it out the box to the opponent O_O like Jim Beglin said does he think he's Pele?
In my opinion I think the reason his form dropped is because he's become too confident and thinks he can hog the ball! When he first came he was excellent he did all the simple things well and when he had chances to run with the ball he did it really well. He knew he had to start off well at a big club and that's what he did. Another negative thing about him is he thinks he's too strong and tries to barge people all the time (thinks his DENCH) when he should just go for the sliding challenge e.g against Ramires in FA Cup Final.
All in all I think he's got the ability no doubt but just needs to cut out the showboating and needs to show some heart cos he doesn't like getting his shorts dirty! I still believe he'll end up being a really good player for us and if he can get rid of these silly things in his game he'll sooner or later get that Spain call up.
Enrique Criticism...

BR should tell him to keep it simple

It comes as no surprise.
I always thought the style Rodgers wants and the style Enrique plays may clash. Let's just see if he can adapt, but I do have my doubts.
Enrique plays with his head down, this is not easy to coach out of a player. He holds onto the ball too long because he distribution isn't great and he natuarally wants to move forward with the ball.
Defensively he's good, on his day he's very difficult to beat in a one on one, but his head down, run with the ball, limited passing game is a problem offensively.

Sold next summer.
Replaced by Neil Taylor if he proves his fitness.

I hope this is not a case of personality clash with BR. Maybe BR just can't motivate him or hopefully it's just a loss of form.

Temporary loss of form, I mean.
