‘Glides up the pitch…’ Reds pick one player for special praise

Posted by

Naby Keita was pretty much Liverpool’s only bright light in the first-half against Burnley tonight.

The team looked shy of ideas, and while the Guinean was by no means at his brilliant best, he at least looked happy to run with the ball in midfield.

Neither Jordan Henderson or James Milner have that in the locker.

Keita’s first touch is always positive and he can beat an opponent from standstill.

This 45 minute cameo proves he’ll be a valuable asset for us over this busy festive schedule, but thankfully, he maintained that level as Liverpool went on to win 3-1.

We really hope Keita can maintain this kind of form and look to get on the ball as much as possible.

He’s technically our best midfielder by some distance.
