Another piece of business that came out of nowhere and announced only by a guy close to the club when it was effectively done. https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/liverpool-reach-agreement-cody-gakpo-transfer
I've been a huge fan of this lad since Stephens' night. A few more YouTube clips and I'll be an expert on him.
Think the same can be said for every game. Looks tidy on the ball but doesn't look a ball winner or someone who will hold onto it to get us up the pitch. Strange enough signing given the shortages in midfield at present.
For me , he looks again tidy on the ball , doesn't look as if he would win many balls or hold onto it for that matter. He looks out of place doesn't seem a right fit for the team overall. But we'll see as the rest of the season progresses. Maybe he'll find his footing.
I'm sure if he had a fully fit Nunez and Diaz/Jota next to him he'd fair a lot better. It's hard to get going in a team that's low in conference
Will definitely be reserving judgement on this lad till next season, brand new to the league and in a team who's confidence is on the floor. I personally wouldn't have signed him if we could only bring in one this month either
Poor enough again yesterday but did have a few bright moments compared to some other games. We played a bit deeper yesterday and I don't think he has the pace to play on the break so I don't think it suited him.
