"Don't forget Suso too has signed a long term contract! I knew the reports about Martin Kelly demanding 45K a week was not true! Kelly is a Liverpool boy and he is loyal to the club! Show them what you are made of Martin!"
"Great to hear from kelly again we really missed him at times this season, wisdom has done a decent job to cover for johnson when being played at left back for enrique .. glad to see more and more players committing their future to the cause .. Hope you recover from injury soon Kells YNWA"
"Well done Martin! Congratulations to have committed your future to this incredible club! I hope you'll find any response to the necessities you have as a professional through this club! Keep working hard to facilitate your come back to the full fitness and availability for BR to the training ground! Keep up the good work lad! We love you Martin! YNWA Martin Kelly"
"Kelly maybe the new Carra! i certainly thought so before his injury hopefully he can come back strong and maintain 1st team football we need local lads with quality and passion coming through like Stevie and Carra did. YNWA"
"Glad to see that Kells has comitted his long term future to the club too. It bodes well for an exciting future. However, I'm seeing that slicked back hair and wondering if there is some sort of Andy Carroll type pony-tail going on at the back there. LOL"
"Glad to hear...he has so much potential and is just a great lad!!!
keep the lads who live for the red-shirt...so this week has two faces, a very sad and a very good one...a defensiv-legend who retires and maybe a future defensiv-legend who commits his future!!"

"Martin strikes me as an ideal replacement for Jamie at CB (was always a temp RB IMO)and like Jamie understands what it means as a local lad to play for our great club. "
"Its amazing how many of the players are signing new contracts, Fantistic work by FSG and fantastic commitment from the players, its a new exciting era for the club, if this lad does half as well as Carra he will have a great Career!"
"We have enough players in defence to manage carra's retirement. It's just Kelly & wisdom needs to practise as both CB & RB. I believe Wisdom can be a good RB. But LB investment is definitely needed since Enrique is getting injured quite often"
"People may read into this that carras retirement announcement just happened and he signs, but this would have been in the pipeline for months. Great news."
"I love this kid, same attributes as Carra. Is a total defender and will take right back position when he comes back. A major negative whene he got injured. Cant wait to see the guy back"
"This is a massive statement for LFC. It's amazing what a poor job BR must be doing that so many of our stars & future stars are signing long term contracts for the club. Well done BR, IA & FSG; as Hannibal Smith would say, 'I love it when a plan comes together'."
"was 'slightly' worried about the crap news of him rejecting previous offer but f that.... He is so underrated... amazing player, CB turned RB. Dont get me wrong, I am impressed by Wisdom so far but I must say Kelly is far more a hidden gem... he is I repeat again so underrated! "
"excellent news martin. just hope you return as good as you have been b4 injury. hopefully in 12/13 yrs we will be mentioning you alongside jamie etc. get well soon and come back strong as ever. YNWA"
"martin has the talent and would hope that he can put his injury problems behind him, it is a concern that he gets injured so often. Perhaps at center back he will not have so many problems with hamstrings"
"Hey Championsof europe. great comment 2021, and its so true, this season is really refreshing, in regards to all the players long term commitment, a few more out in the summer and a few top top players in and next season will be amazing, Everything Br has said has come true this season, a big announcement in june to come in regards to the Stadium to, Great times!!!"
"Great to hear, refreshing news to read following the continuous and relentless attempts by the media to sell all of our players, and in the wake of one of our best CBs ever to play for this club retiring, fantastic to hear about a huge prospect signing a new contract. "
"Young Kelly is the next Cara, needs to learn all he can before the end of the season, can't see cara away for too long . Give it 6 months and he'll be back coaching, he has probably promised Mrs C a cruise!!"
"Lol I was watching his goal and when you have carroll, coates and Kelly in the penalty box, one of em definitely gonna get a header in lol. Good lad. YNWA!"
