5. Kevin Stewart

Kevin Stewart is exactly the type of player that Liverpool fans love to cheer for. He gives maximum effort every time he steps out onto the pitch, and clearly loves the club. Unfortunately, he just isn’t talented enough to be a difference-maker for a club challenging for a spot in the top four.

It’s not that Stewart isn’t a capable Premier League substitute. He could certainly fill that role for a club in the bottom half of the division. He just lacks the talent to fill that void for Liverpool.

The Reds wouldn’t be the first Premier League club to give up on Stewart. He joined the Reds on a free transfer from Tottenham just two seasons ago. It’s only a matter of time before Liverpool come to the same conclusion as Spurs.

Selling Stewart isn’t going to earn Liverpool a huge transfer fee, but anything they get for the versatile midfielder will be pure profit. Look for the Reds to cash in on January.
