Alexis Mac Allister‘s Struggles Highlight Growing Concerns for Arne Slot as Liverpool Midfield Faces Questions
Concerns are mounting over the form of Alexis Mac Allister,with the Liverpool midfielder appearing hampered by ongoing fitness issues and struggling to impact matches. The situation is especially worrying for manager Arne Slot as he assesses his options, with several players now under scrutiny just months into the season.
Mac Allister, currently rated at 5.44, has yet to reach full fitness following problems over the last six months, frequently appearing uninvolved during midfield play. His difficulties are indicative of a wider issue for Slot, as he evaluates a squad where several players are failing to consistently meet expectations.This comes at a crucial time for Liverpool as they navigate a demanding schedule and attempt to establish a clear identity under their new manager.
Beyond Mac Allister, several other Liverpool players are raising questions. While not yet featuring consistently enough for formal rankings, Rio Ngumoha has impressed with a rating of 7.33, largely due to his match-winning goal against Newcastle. Giorgi Mamardashvili has also shown promise during his time in goal, earning a 6.67 rating, while Joe Gomez, with a 6.33, is arguably deserving of increased playing time.
Wataru Endo,currently at 5.75, has yet to fully establish himself in the team. The performance of these players will be critical as Slot seeks to solidify his midfield and build a cohesive, competitive squad capable of challenging for honors.
