Liverpool, a midfielder, has unexpectedly benefited from their temporary injury issue in attack.

In the Premier League matches against Aston Villa, Klopp went to the underutilised 29-year-old to play on the left side of his 4-3-3 formation because Luis Daz, Diogo Jota, and Roberto Firmino were all out injured, Due to Dáz's injury, Klopp fielded a 4-3-1-2 formation to maximise Firmino's potential, the system move was successful, 

But because the Brazilian was also out, Klopp returned to his standard 4-3-3 formation. Fábio Carvalho was slated to start on the left versus Villa, contrary to popular belief, but the former Fulham player struggled in the same position against Manchester City in the Carabao Cup loss, despite scoring, Oxlade-Chamberlain was chosen as a result, and Klopp seems pleased with his performance.

"First and foremost, Ox is a brilliant player and an even better person, so I am aware of the circumstance, but occasionally, a professional football player finds himself in a difficult situation, ""We can't think too much about the summer," said Klopp after the game. "But Ox is fit and back. He was back before the break, but he wasn't fully fit, now he is."

He had excellent preparations, and regrettably, he was scheduled to start the City game before becoming unwell. I'm hoping he can maintain that fitness level. That would make us happy, and everyone's future would be promising."Didi Hamann, a former Liverpool player, expressed his dissatisfaction with the English midfielder's performance, 

<strong>Showed flashes of his former self against Villa</strong>

Noting that he wasn't very satisfied with it, he told Stadium Astro, "Oxlade-Chamberlain did OK today, but I think his time is up as well, Oxlade-Chamberlain showed flashes of his former self against Villa, but overall he didn't do anything to persuade Klopp to give him another shot at starting on the left before Friday's match against Leicester.
