Greenlizard0 Premier League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [17th - 21st February 2024]

I think we need to agree to disagree on what "going missing" means. He presses well, and links play well. I agree that he often doesn't look threatening for long periods but it's rare that he fails to do a useful job. I accept that you might say you need more from a top centre forward, but it's as important to have players who hold the team together as it is to have exceptional ones. He's also still learning that role having arrived as a winger.
But he doesnt always press well at all thats the issue, he is very static at times and just slows it down far too much if gets ball at times as he isnt quick, its a half speed at best when comparing his speed to Diaz, Elliott, Nunez, Jota, Salah

He can do what your saying maybe 10 minutes in a game then goes back to the above. He may improve and hope he does. Bobby until his last 2 seasons did everything you mentioned week in week out, maybe thats what Klopp is hoping Gakpo will do but i dont see it yet.

Diaz finally gets his goal :D

Incredible people on here were doubting
Im assuming you watched same first half like rest of us? Diaz fluffed everything, Gakpo didnt exist, Gravenberch wasnt great.

It wasnt a doubt as such but signs were not good and our squad is threadbare so slipping up wouldnt of been a surprise either
