The Ian Doyle analysis after Liverpool rounded off their pre-season preparations with a 4-1 win over Sevilla and 0-0 draw with Las Palmas at Anfield
The people have spoken. If the reaction of Anfield is any barometer, there appears little appetite among supporters for Luis Diaz to leave Liverpool this transfer window.
It bore all the hallmarks of a trademark passage of Diaz play, accepting possession and the invitation to force his marker to retreat into the penalty area before sending a rising shot high into the net. Beyond doubt, though, is Liverpool agreed a deal in principle for Anthony Gordon until Newcastle United pulled the plug, a move that would offered an immediate threat to Diaz’s regular starting role.
Of course, Liverpool were hardly a route one team under Klopp, even if the directive was often to get the ball forward as quickly as possible given the attacking threat at the Reds’ disposal. And the hints were primarily dropped by those who, despite the plentiful opportunities on offer, were barely involved if at all.
