Last week we heard how Man Utd and Man City fans were causing mischief on the Liverpool website with their campaign to see the misfiring Italian crowned the club's player of the year.
One can only assume there was a very real danger of him winning the thing, because a couple of days ago his name was removed from the list of nominees.
Now he's not had a great campaign, but surely he's more deserving of the title than Jordan Rossiter (0 Premier League starts this season) down at the bottom there?
Anyway, people noticed, and he's since been reinstated. Though you could argue the damage has already been done.
