Don’t let him near the team’ – Liverpool fans all say the same thing about one player after win vs Real Madrid
Milos Kerkez was dropped by Arne Slot in Liverpool’s 1-0 victory against Real Madrid on 4 November as Andy Robertson excelled.
Liverpool signed Kerkez from Bournemouth over the summer, yet the big money move has failed to take off as of yet.

The Hungarian was thrusted into the starting XI, but struggled to adapt to the demands of playing for the Reds which saw him benched against los Blancos in the Champions League.
Former Man United and Blackburn scout Mick Brown exclusively told Football Insider that Slot will be very concerned by Kerkez, reinforced by his decision to start Robertson in Europe last night.

Andy Robertson superb as Liverpool fans in unison that Kerkez must play second fiddle for foreseeable future
The former Cherry was restricted to a brief eight-minute cameo off the bench for the Scotsman at Anfield as he watched his competition thrive.
Robertson was astute defensively, winning four of his six duels and ensuring he wasn’t dribbled past by the speed of the Real Madrid attack.
The clear contrast between the 31-year-old and the 21-year-old was the former’s composure on the ball, losing possession on just eight occasions.

Virgil van Dijk vented his anger towards Federico Chiesa following Wolves’ decisive goal at Molineux. Rob Edwards’ outfit pulled off a surprise 2-1 triumph in the Premier League as the Reds squandered an opportunity to climb into fourth position.
Mohamed Salah netted an 83rd-minute leveller in a chaotic conclusion after Rodrigo Gomes had opened the scoring in the Midlands. However, Andre sparked wild celebrations in the stands with a 94th-minute winner.
Liverpool skipper Van Dijk was left furious following the late setback and yelled in Chiesa’s direction, evidently unimpressed with the Italian’s contribution. Alisson had launched a pass towards the winger, but after the duo failed to connect, Chiesa did not track back in an attempt to retrieve the ball.
Andre’s strike then deflected beyond the Brazilian and into the net. A series of issues emerged in the post-match analysis.
Van Dijk was more measured in his post-match interview, though still frustrated by the nature of the defeat.

“Conceding goals is always frustrating,” he told TNT Sport when asked if there were any frustrations about the manner of the two Wolves goals. “Obviously we’ve come on the back of a couple of clean sheets and I think defensively we have been very solid.
“But yeah, listen, it is what it is and we have to move quickly on because we come back here in a couple of days and we want to do well in the FA Cup as well and we have to show a reaction.”
Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard reckons his former side were sluggish in responding to an error from Alisson. “The Liverpool players from the goalkeeper’s mistake – it’s not the greatest clearance from Alisson – but I just thought they were slow to react in midfield as well,” he commented on TNT Sports.
“You know, Wolves are jumping on the first ball, picking up the second ball. It’s a poor goal from a Liverpool point of view to concede, and it’s another late one. It’s happened too many times that they’re conceding these late goals.
“I just think the speed of the reaction from the poor clearance – I’m sure Alisson will want to own up to it – but the reaction’s just too slow.”
Former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock, though, laid the blame at a different door. He identified the pass to Alisson as the issue.
“It was a mistake from Curtis Jones – he plays a ball into Alisson and Alisson’s never going to get any purchase on it,” Warnock stated on BBC Radio 5 Live.
“Andre looked heavy in the last five or so minutes but he takes a shot and it takes a wicked deflection to loop over Alisson.”

GOAL!!! Wolves 1-1 Liverpool (Salah, 82)
SALAH FINDS THE NET IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE! His first for 122 days. Good time to get it.
And this is why Wolves are going doing. Bellegarde plays a horrific pass straight to Salah who runs at Krecji into the box and pokes a clever finish with the outside of his foot.
Straight back to the centre-circle. No time to waste.
