There’s a growing list of forgotten men at Liverpool.
Rickie Lambert, Brad Jones and Iago Aspas were lucky to gnaw their way out of the shackles of the Liverpool bench as they seek first team football elsewhere.
But Jose Enrique remains a Liverpool player and he’s pretty pissed off that he’s not starting for the Reds on a regular basis.
“I’m in a difficult position,” Enrique told Marca.
“The club have alienated Balotelli, Borini and me. I have a year left on my contract and I imagine the club will want to sell, but I still want to stay and fight as I always have.
“I will not give up. I know from experience that football changes from day to night.”
Brendan Rodgers is keen to unload Enrique, as well as Balotelli and Borini, from the Liverpool ranks in this transfer window but admirably the Spaniard wants to prove his worth at Anfield.
“I feel fine after two years with knee discomfort.
“Plus in the squad here we only have one pure left-back [Alberto Moreno] and I know that if I stay I’ll play.
“I want to prove that some are wrong.”
