However, from the other perspective, Gakpo may perform admirably in the Suárez position. Similar to the Uruguayan, he is entering Anfield under little pressure, with the majority of attention still focused on his more expensive attack partner. Expectations are also moderate given that they are from the Eredivisie and without any Champions League experience.

His previous complete season, which ended in 2009–10, saw an astounding 35 goals and 17 assists, making it even more outstanding. Gakpo, like Suárez before him, will leave the Netherlands as the division's best playmaker and marksman, conclusively demonstrating his readiness for the next level.
