Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson feels Lucas Leiva should be starting in midfield alongside Steven Gerrard.
Lawrenson believes Lucas could be the solution to some of Liverpool's current problems.
"Lucas is generally a 7/10 player. He isn't going to change games, but he rarely lets you down and he knows his job," Lawrenson wrote in his Liverpool Echo column.
"And if you are a team struggling for form, if you get enough 7/10 performances then you have a chance of changing from bad to good.
"I don't see why Lucas and Steven Gerrard can't both play in a deep-lying defensive mode."
