He took that he is not on the CL players list very personally. Well done Fede.

He could easily have 4 assists, Ekitike’s header and the 1st chance he laid off to Isak

Best performance in a Liverpool shirt by a country mile.

Looked confident, energetic and so much more powerful in his running.

Could possibly see him subbing in as our front man while Isak is still building fitness and Ekikite is serving his time in the Arne penitentiary.

Loved Fede’s touch for the second, that guy is serious class, hope we see a lot more of him.

Although I’d imagine now with Leoni’s injury, he’ll be added as a late replacement.

He looked shattered by the end, but what a game he had. If he can be built his fitness levels to the point where he’s able to perform every 3 days, he’ll be a massive addition.

His quality was never in doubt.

P.S. His intelligence and awareness are off the charts in the box. The lay off to Isak in the first minute, that one-time pass to Bradley against Burnley, his reaction to score the third versus Bournemouth; these aren’t qualities you see every day.

He should be in the CL squad ahead of Rio who simply isnt ready yet.

He would be if he was home grown.

Rio is in it more for his development than he is for his current ability.

Respect the fact that Slot wants to take it slow to complete his fitness journey back. But Chiesa during 2020/2021 was in the reckoning for being among the best world wide. You can’t coach something he has instinctively.

Maybe Hugo wanted to give him more game time :joy:

Well said @Livvy some people won’t let bygones be bygones it is only a song and Chiesa himself really appreciates, I even go as far as it is helping him not give up on staying at the club.

I am not sure about this but didn’t UEFA make a rule change to allow another player if we lose one to a head injury?

I hope you’re right as that guy might be the difference in winning the CL.

Chiesa will always be a hero to me for destroying England at Wembley in the Euros final, and I’m so happy he’s showing what he can do for us. A good showing against Palace and it’ll definitely give Slot something to think about.
