Liverpool hero John Barnes believes Nat Phillips should leave.

Barnes believes Phillips must leave Liverpool if he wants to play regular football, insisting he would 'fully respect' the 24-year-old for moving on.

"If Nat Phillips wants first team football it'll be away from Liverpool," Barnes told BonusCodeBets.

"He won't start ahead of the likes of Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip or Ibrahim Konaté.

"He's not that young anymore and he has to decide whether he wants to stake a claim for regular first team football elsewhere.

"Often it depends on the individual. Some players are happy being part of a squad and playing when necessary, whereas some prefer to drop down a level and play regularly.

"I fully respect him if that's what he chooses."
