Sky Sports savant Robert Earnshaw was very dazzled by one Liverpool player who looked ‘extremely sharp’ in this evening’s Carabao Cup conflict against Leicester
The beneficiary of that recognition was Cody Gakpo, who scored the Reds’ balancer from the get-go in the last part and was unfortunate to see a header skip off the crossbar and onto as opposed to over the goalline a couple of moments later.
The Welshman was one of the visitor specialists on Sky Sports News this evening and he said of the 24-year-old (by means of the telecaster’s live web discourse, 21:04): ” Cody Gakpo has been awesome today. Extremely sharp, exceptionally clean in his contacts. You’d fancy him to get another objective. He’s now got one.”
After a disappointing first half which saw Liverpool go in 1-0 down at the span, the Dutchman’s objective to draw us level demonstrated the defining moment of the game, with a Dominik Szoboszlai rocket later terminating us into the lead and Diogo Jota covering the triumph with an extravagant backheeled objective.
It was to be sure an exceptionally clean completion from Gakpo after some splendid blend play with countryman Ryan Gravenberch, and the 24-year-old’s general exhibition on the night was meriting all the commendation he gets.
According to Sofascore, the ex-PSV Eindhoven aggressor won nine duels and four handles, the majority of any Reds player for the two measurements, while he took no less than seven shots (three on track) and drew four fouls from the resistance.
It was an exhibition where he positively put his hand up for one more beginning against Tottenham on Saturday, in spite of the fact that Darwin Nunez could have a comment about that!
Liverpool ‘beat’ Manchester City to the signing of Dutch ‘phenomenon’ As he says ‘yes’ to Klopp, Liverpool ‘beat’ Manchester City.
According to reports, Liverpool has signed Wolfsburg defender Micky van de Ven ahead of Premier League rivals Manchester City
The Reds are seeking to enhance Jurgen Klopp’s team by signing a new defender during the summer transfer window.
Following a disappointing first two-thirds of the season, Klopp changed his tactics, resulting in Liverpool winning seven and drawing two of their last nine Premier League games.
Liverpool prospered with Trent Alexander-Arnold in a hybrid role, and Klopp is now looking for a new left-sided central defender to develop the system even more.
Sporting Lisbon’s Goncalo Inacio, Ajax’s Jurrien Timber, Chelsea’s Levi Colwill, and Wolfsburg’s Van de Ven are among the centre-backs connected with a move to Liverpool.
According to the Spanish tabloid Nacional, Liverpool ‘beat’ Man City ‘at auction’ for Van de Ven, who is dubbed a ‘phenomenon’ by the publication.
After joining Wolfsburg from Dutch club Volendam in 2021, the Netherlands under-21 international has been fantastic this season.
The Liverpool manager is claimed to be ‘amazed by the potential’ of the Dutchman, who has indicated ‘yes’ to a move to Anfield.
Man City has also been ‘immersed in the auction’ for the 22-year-old, but Liverpool and Klopp now have ‘the advantage’.
Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are interested in Leicester City midfielder James Maddison, but former Liverpool defender Glen Johnson feels he “has the class to play for” the Reds or Chelsea.
“It’s difficult to say that any player from a relegated club would be good enough to make the huge jump to playing for one of the Premier League’s top six clubs,” Johnson said to Betfred. West Ham United, in my opinion, would be overjoyed to sign a player like James Ward-Prowse.
