Liverpool have brought in some fantastic talent this summer, but they also have others from previous windows who have looked incredible.

This season has brought a mixed set of performances for the Reds, with the early half producing winning results but in arguably poor performances, and this recent run has exposed how poorly Arne Slot’s side have played.

While they had been on their nightmare run of four straight defeats in all competitions, it has now ended with a 5-1 thumping of Eintracht Frankfurt. It should be used as a confidence booster and a template moving forward.

Those players who have delivered this season for Liverpool, though, have proved why they should really be better than they have been, with stars like Dominik Szoboszlai and Hugo Ekitike showing their importance to the team.

One star who has had a good season and been a consistent force in the side is Cody Gakpo, who seems to be underrated for what he, as a player, brings to the team, including his goal contributions.
