I actually thought he tried to do the right things last night, he’s just a bit slow in the head and lacks a bit of quality.
When you make a squad player first choice every week their limitations become painfully obvious. He’s nowhere near talented enough to be starting for Liverpool, it’s the club’s fault for putting so much faith in him.
Yeah, I thought he was pretty good. Battled hard, was more of a physical presence that we’re used to seeing, and it was good to see him taking on his full back on the outside.
I thought he was good last season, so maybe he is just someone who needs competition to bring out the best in him.
I didn’t think he was good, he still wasted a number of good opportunities. But he did try, and he made a couple of simple passes he’d usually miss.
Better than usual, still not the standard required.
He is playing like his confidence has taken a huge hit. You can see him delay the thing he wants to do, knowing that the defenders know that’s what he’s likely going to do and it isn’t going to work. You can see the wheels in his head grinding to a halt when he gets on the ball
I actually think he is being played out of position for the talents he has… I can remember back in the school days when a teacher played kids in a position they weren’t used to, nor happy to play in… I get the same vibes here with Gakpo
Fuck knows what his favourite/best position is though :0)
Maybe he’s naturally a right back.
Gakpo treats the football as his lover and needs to caress it as much and as often as possible. He looks at the football as if it were his lover and would not take his eyes away from it. You? No Looking at it and No Touching It! 
The key difference between him and Diaz imo: decision making. Gakpo frequently makes wrong calls in key moments, and it’s starting to damage the team.
The one he’s playing.
He does well, then no end product, just seems to be wrong in his decision making at the moment and seems to have lost confidence.
You can’t knock his effort, he definitely is a trier and does go past his man but then pffft, just fizzles out
