Welcome Cody Gakpo

[Kid Klopp]

He's good at football but I think he might be a fair weather player. Compare to how Nunez plays when short of confidence. He's shirking it out there 

If this is what we get from him under Klopp, I don't imagine he'll get better under a new manager either.

Not a great day but I still like him. He’s a great finisher could just do with being a bit more aggressive.

It's this for me. Danns was the total opposite when he came on. Could be a confidence thing, but I'm not sure. I'd me made up if he proves me wrong though as he seems a great lad - a bit too 'nice' maybe.

[YugoB]

I think the minutes hes put in as of late, has been a problem for him, he isn't sharp at the moment, decision making wise. 

 

[Florist Cinema Pond Goal]

Not in good form but all of our forwards have had times of poor form. He’ll come good again

[muleskinner]

Proper shifts and here we are top of the league.

[chrisbonnie]

I'd sell him in the summer. 

Seems a really good lad, but the fact of the matter is, he doesn't score an awful lot of goals.....

11 for someone that isn’t always a starter and who gets moved about more than any of the other forwards seems decent to me. 

[D.Boon]

Been very disappointing the last 3 games and you would think being subbed off for Danns will sting. With Jota out though he'll have a role to play the rest of the season and see what the summer brings.

And the team keeps winning. He's run his a*** off every game.

He’s absolutely knackered. Give him a break.

[Ombudsam]

Isn’t it like a week and a half ago he scored one of our most crucial goals this season?

[Swipe]

Yeah it seems to me he scores big goals. He’s not quite Nunez but he seems to make his own changes every game too.

Maybe. But he seems to me to be a player who plays well when the team is. He's more a facilitator in a good team rather than an instigator like a Darwin or Suarez. 

Seem a little short of confidence right now which seems to be the same thing that happened Diaz when it was all on him. 

Either way we are top of the league and he’s part of that so it’s all good and I’m sure he’s got some big important goals in him this season. 
 

[honourablegeorge]

He scored a good few when Nunez was missing everything. Other way round now.

[muleskinner]

Sell him and weaken the squad .

[Widnesian]

His decision making at times is questionable. If I’m honest I think he’s a bit out of his depth. Sell in the summer.

Or sell him and buy someone better and strengthen the squad.

The squad is struggling with him in it.

He’s got 11 goals, a few assists. Barely started, then four games in a row in 11 days. 
 

Name another teams 5th best striker with 11 goals this season. You’ll struggle.

Jota went the best part of 30 games without a single goal.

Context.

[stressederic]

He’s done some big shifts in recent games with a very mix and match line up of attackers around him. He needs a rest which hopefully he'll be able to get soon.

You have described a fair weather player.

I'm trying to maintain my usual position that if he's your 5th best forward you're in very good health

He's in poor form in the last 3 and at a time we need him most so it feels like you're describing, but I'd be ok him staying 

He's not got any devil about him which I think top players need. He's too relaxed, too calm, too much of a steady Eddie. As a squad forward I think that's a good thing at times but yesterday wasn't one of those 

[Jarg Armani]

I like him. Seems a bit short on confidence maybe because he gets shunted around a lot to help the team. He’ll be fine. He’s a leader as well

I wouldn't write him off, not yet anyway. But he hasn't been very good in a situation where he should be stepping up, he was our main striker these past few games, his decision making has been terrible, almost as bad as his shooting.
