The subtle tactical aspects of the unusual role that this star played have been described

The No. 15 started the 3-1 victory at Villa Park on the left of the Reds' front three, with Mohamed Salah in his usual position on the right and Darwin Nunez in the center, he then went into depth about the pre-game instructions Jürgen Klopp and his coaching staff had given him, Oxlade-Chamberlain told Liverpoolfc.com, "I think I did OK."
