Liverpool
‘Disappointing’ Liverpool player is about to become so much more important for Jurgen Klopp now.
A “disappointing” Liverpool player is about to assume an even greater significance in the eyes of Jurgen Klopp.Injury updates such as the one Jurgen Klopp provided yesterday rarely yield substantial improvement.
However, despite the potential severity of the injuries to Diogo Jota and Alisson Becker, there is always the chance that others will step up to be counted in the absence of key players.Due to Jota’s form, Luis Diaz’s continued preference, and Darwin Nunez’s emergence as a key player, the 24-year-old may not have had the opportunity to do so to his maximum potential. But now that the Portuguese have regrettably been eliminated, Gakpo has been presented with an opportunity. It is required that he take it.
Gakpo was given an opportunity to flourish.
Preceding the start of the season, Liverpool fans were extremely intrigued by the potential of Gakpo. After assimilating into the group since his January acquisition, the Dutchman appeared prepared to advance.
Although there remains a substantial amount of time for that to transpire, Cody has yet to ignite at this time.Concerning the goalkeeper, this will undoubtedly be challenging. Liverpool has been well served by Caoimhin Kelleher, who merits this opportunity to make his debut. However, he will never be able to surpass Alisson.
However, the injury sustained by Jota cannot be analyzed using the same perspective. During the initial stages of the season, the 26-year-old was possibly Klopp’s fifth-string attacker. Nevertheless, as the season has progressed, Diogo has exploded into the starting lineup.
This has occurred primarily due to Cody Gakpo’s lackluster start to his rookie campaign with the Reds. Gakpo acknowledged yesterday in an open and candid statement that he has not performed at his peak in 2023/24 and that he is striving to improve.It is true that not everything has been negative. Despite this, the former captain of PSV Eindhoven has scored four goals and has entered the game briefly when required. Additionally, he has demonstrated his versatility by occupying deep midfield.
However, his return to eleven Premier League contests with only two goals and no assists is disheartening.
Likewise, Dutch publication Voetbal Primeur described Gakpo as such during the most recent international break.With Jota sidelined with an injury and Mohamed Salah and Nunez likely to be rested, Cody’s first opportunity to turn things around arrives tonight against LASK.
While he continues to contribute significantly even without the goal contributions, he should begin setting down a few more.
While we have become accustomed to seeing Gakpo come off the bench in recent months, he will now have the opportunity to earn more starts. We are prepared for the imminent increase in Cody’s significance to this Liverpool squad.
