"Hope to see you back in the first team soon. We need a natural DM to help out with quick counters. Certainly underrated midfielder and unlucky to have two nasty injuries in two years."
"Welcome back Lucas BR should build for the future around you as like Stevie, Carra and Pepe you are a true committed RED who is not at the club for the cash YNWA."
"Brilliant news. competition for the centre midfield roles is high which can only be good for us. I'd personally play lucas alongside sahin with Gerrard in front as I think lucas can break up play wheras Sahin can play a deep lying playmaker role with Gerrard freed up in front of them. Allen can slot in for Sahin if we need more protection in front of the back 4"
"Faultless performance from Lucas this afternoon. One every tackle and 100 percent pass rate. Great to see he back on the pitch. Wish he had been able to play last night, result would have been different.

"it will be important not to rush him back to avoid setbacks and new injures, hope he will play at least one or two other U21s games. Please Lucas be careful in the tackles, it's an adivice for your good!"
"Consuiering we should win against So'ton anyway, hopefully he won't play the full 90, if at all, just for the extra training and rest. As rushjob says, with Lucas back LFC should be so much better, with Allen getting a bit more forward."
"This guy will enable BR to get rid of dead weight. There are still a few players clogging up the wage bill. A good performance here and there from a hapless player will not paper over the cracks. We would have a tussle between Allen, Jonjo and Suso for the remaining midfield berth, which is so healthy for LFC."
"Just heard that we are buying back Ince for 6m after selling him for .25m, brilliant piece of business, not. And then you have some inebriated fan championing those who sanctioned Inces sale, crazy!"
"I'm really glad Brendan rates Lucas so much. He's amazing. I always stuck with him when he was getting a bit of stick. Brilliant player. Him and Allen plus Gerrard is some midfield. NOW LETS START SHOWING THIS PREMIERSHIP HOW GOOD WE ARE!!!"
"Just hope he gets back to his best again, a tireless warrior who nevers gives up, who believes every ball is worth winning, one super guy with an amazing atude, I honestly hope he can go on to captain Brazil and play in the next World Cup, maybe the new Dunga? We miss him badly, it proves how valuable a player is the void they leave behind when they are not there like before."
"From what I saw of Lucas in the U21 he has still retained his football brain and sense of position. He was mopping up anything that came through and was making forward telling passes. This is what we have been lacking.However i hope BR doesn't rush him back. A few 50 to 60 minute games to get back to fitness.YNWA"
"without playing Lucas is getting labelled as the worlds best player. He defence duties were GETTING top notch but his attacking aspects needed plenty of work. With a years absence it will probably take him 5+ games to get hopefully to the level he was at, but his return doesn't mean that Allen, Shelvey, Hendo & Sahin don't need to improve their basic defending!"
"Desperately need Lucas back, top midfielder who frees up the play and allows players to get forward. Really should take Allen's place, am not convinced about him."
