How Crystal Palace’s Stunning Upset Over Liverpool Shattered All Expectations and What It Means Next
Perhaps the lack options – Joe Gomez played a bad game himself in the Carabao Cup victory over Southampton while Leoni obviously wasn’t available – forced the hand of the Liverpool head coach.
What exactly is the reason behind this poor performance from the 26-year-old, we’ll never know for certain, but constant links with Real Madrid may have played their part. His contract at Anfield expires at the end of the season and the Spanish giants are reportedly hoping to sign him as a free agent.
If that is indeed a factor, Liverpool would do well to either persuade him to sign a new contract as soon as possible, or prepare for his exit by acquiring another high-quality defender in January if possible.
