There were days when I would shout at the TV, or from the terraces, saying “get Lucas on!” When the manager didn’t listen to me, we always lost. True story. Happy birthday, Lucas. YNWA and all that.

Happy Birthday Lucas. Liverpool is flourishing and I hope you have the same career path as them. It was always a pleasure to see you play in an LFC Jersey. Wish you and your family the very best of everything. #YNWA

What do we think?
It is great to see Lucas still keeping in touch with the club he clearly still has a love for. It is also nice to see so many Reds fans take the time out to share their own birthday wishes to Lucas.
