Klopp asked to sign him, now he's Liverpool's worst player

As the 2022-2023 campaign got underway and the negative results began to manifest themselves at Liverpool, the criticism and bad comments were all made by Liverpool fans and one or two former Reds players, and it was not until the voices of those with no connection to the club began to speak out, many of them not holding back in lashing out against Klopp and his players, with one defender today being criticised by a man who in his latter days played for Newcastle United, that the criticism went from being understandable to the disgruntled atmosphere at Anfield to the voice of those with no connection to the club.

Following Liverpool's 3-0 defeat to Wolverhampton, Alan Shearer told Match of the Day that he felt Joel Matip's overall performance was not at all up to what Jurgen Klopp would expect from a central defender, claiming the German player looked awful during the first goal where a deflection off him was instrumental in opening the scoring within 5 minutes of the opening whistle." You have time to pick up your pass, put it behind, Matip stops. He's on his way there to go close it down and he stops. I don't know what he's doing."

While Liverpool's undisputed starters are players like Virgil van Dijk or Ibrahima Konaté in central defence, the likes of Joel Matip and Joe Gomez will be seen as at least a step down from the Dutchman and the Frenchman, with former players like Shearer taking advantage of this situation to criticise Klopp's men who did not have a good night like many of their team-mates.

Klopp intends to shut his mouth

Just as some former players outside the institution were responsible for criticising Klopp's players, the German coach will surely use Matip as a resource for the match that the Reds will have on Monday 13 February against Everton, looking with the participation of the central defender to give him that confidence lost against Wolves, because while Van Dijk and Konate can not return, his tactician prepares them hard for a possible start against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
