Analysis from Ian Doyle after Liverpool's clash with Everton in the Premier League
When Jurgen Klopp declared before the game he didn’t want Liverpool’s players to run the risk of red cards like Steven Gerrard in past derbies, he probably didn’t expect them to take him to heart quite so literally.
Rarely can the Hungarian have been as ineffective as here, offering little going forward and borderline invisible as Everton snapped into challenges to seize the early initiative. Having had their forward line questioned following a month in which they frittered away a succession of decent chances to drop costly points, the Reds’ attack was given a much-needed shot of confidence in victory at Fulham on Sunday with Diogo Jota scoring on his return to the starting line-up and Cody Gakpo posting a man-of-the-match showing.
The knee-jerk reaction from disgruntled observers will now be to sell all of them, but what will be a genuine concern to Liverpool is that, for the second successive campaign in a row, Nunez has fallen away dramatically during the closing weeks of the season.Even with an evolving squad, enough of this Liverpool side have been around the block enough times to know how to handle a demanding occasion. But for the opening half-hour, they played right into Everton’s hands.
