Liverpool Players Struggle During International Break

Luis Diaz struggled in Colombia's 3-2 World Cup qualifying loss to Uruguay, where he was rated a disappointing five out of ten for a largely anonymous performance. Despite being in strong form for Liverpool, he failed to make an impact alongside teammates Jhon Duran and Juan Quintero, who shone in the match. Meanwhile, Curtis Jones had a memorable debut for England, scoring in a successful outing. Conversely, Alexis Mac Allister of Argentina faced criticism after a poor performance in a 2-1 loss to Paraguay, earning a low rating of four out of ten. In goal, Caoimhin Kelleher has impressed for both Liverpool and the Republic of Ireland, yet manager Arne Slot confirmed that Alisson will reclaim his first-choice spot once fit, potentially hindering Kelleher's development. This decision raises uncertainty about Kelleher's future at Liverpool amidst the arrival of new talent in the squad.
