Liverpool’s midfield duo of Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch have been exceptional this season, with Curtis Jones playing a more advanced role in the middle of the park.
In a recent match, the starting lineup included Alisson, Tsimikas, Van Dijk, Konate, Alexander-Arnold, Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Jones, Gakpo, Jota, and Salah. Jota returned to the starting XI after recovering from a minor injury, replacing Nunez in the lineup.
Manager Slot opted for rotation, resting Szoboszlai and giving Jones a chance to shine. Gakpo also got some minutes on the pitch, while Diaz had to settle for a spot on the bench. Tsimikas was given the nod ahead of Robertson at left-back.
Despite concerns about contract expiry fears, a ‘superb’ Liverpool star remains focused on the present, making a bold statement about his future. It’s clear that the team’s midfield is in good hands with Mac Allister, Gravenberch, and Jones leading the charge.
