For me, one of the reasons is that he has been playing a far more demanding role that what is required as the 6
Commentator said earlier lots of premier league clubs watching Anel Ahmedhodzic Sheffield Utd central defender.
Lots of clubs probably will struggle to spell his name 
We could just call him the AA.
Is it just me that read that as âAnalâ? 
Better than the A&E which is where most of our lot spend their time.
Imagine the headlines Klopp has meeting with the AA.
SMHâŚWhy??
We already need to replace Ox and Naby so keeping JM around is fine.
So what happened to letting aging players age their legs on other peopleâs turf and getting new players to compete and possibly push known starters onto the bench? Wouldnât Milner also be blocking Curtis Jonesâ time on the field or is Jones not needed anymore?

Iâve got no issues if the club decides this, I actually half-expected it.
Ramsay is struggling to even get fit before even showing heâs a player right now for Liverpool. So thereâs uncertainities with that one for the short term.
And Millie has generally performed when he was called upon. Thereâs an end to that around the corner and itâs impossible to know when, it can happen in the middle of a season.
He basically covers 2-3 positions, 3-4 roles at a stretch. Not a starting player, not a double-pivot midfielder, but someone who is a massive help off the pitch and a solid, reliable help on the pitch.
If it happens while heâs still under contract, well, thatâs the âriskâ you take. I think we took much bigger risks with some new contracts.
It doesnât change our summer transfer plans, due to his worth as a character and player + his versatility, he can be the âextraâ player to remain.
Iâd be happy to have Millie here for one more season and then we see what happens.

At least, the good thing is that this club ainât gonna face Vinicius Junior again in the foreseeable futureâŚ

Who blocked Jones time on the field this season?

There are no blocks.
The player who is fit/available, trains and plays well, raises his chances to play more.
We have 30 seniors at the club right now and some players needs to ask themselves first and foremost why theyâre not playing more.
Itâs not gonna fall from the sky at a club like Liverpool, they wonât get a million chances to make it here.

Well, Jonesâ own body? 
but what I am saying is that if the pre-requisite demand from Milner for staying at this club is that he has to be at CM, then he should goâŚ
There isnât anything wrong with signing Milner to another 12 months, the issue is if they donât sign anyone in CM in the summer.
Milner shouldnât have to play CM for 70 mins against Real Madrid anyhow, itâs because some other players are always injured or canât be arsed that he is.

Where has he said that? Wasnât that his prerequisite when he joined apparently only to spend one season entirely at left back on that specific contract which was supposedly demanding he play CM.
And if Iâm frankly honest out of all our CM currently itâs the one Iâd want on if we were looking to hold on to a lead in most PL matches.
Why do you take everything posted by ITKs as gospel or why do you think that renewing Milner is a bad thing?

Problem is we canât even get a lead nowadays even with our current starting CMs whom one is very fragile.
What I said was IF he demands to be played at CM as part of the contract extensionsâŚ
An expected extension if true.
Will be reduced wages, donât panic.
If a 37 year old has the ability to block Jones, then panic about Jones or whomever else canât complete with a 37 year old. Or maybe heâs good enough to earn his spot.
There are two players that are nearly 10 years younger, if we extended those contracts, then yes we should all panic because itâs all relative.
