🚨 Liverpool Fans, Who Really Owns the Left Wing Now?


Liverpool pulled off a record-breaking move this summer by snapping up Alexander Isak – the biggest transfer in British football history. šŸ”„ The excitement is unreal, right? Many already see him as the man to lead Arne Slot’s attack for years to come.

But here’s where it gets interesting… šŸ‘€

šŸ‘‰ With Isak set to be the star striker, whose place is under threat?
Some fans think Cody Gakpo could be the one pushed to the fringes. After all, Isak and Hugo Ekitike have both been tipped to lead the line together. So… is Gakpo about to lose his spot?

Not so fast.

šŸ’” Interactive question for you:
If you were Arne Slot, would you drop Gakpo from your starting XI? Yes or No?

✨ Gakpo’s Answer Came Loud and Clear

During the international break, while everyone was busy hyping up Isak, Gakpo stole the show for the Netherlands against Poland. ⚔ Reports described him as ā€œmenacing,ā€ proving once again that he’s not someone who fades into the background.

Now pause for a second…

What does this say about his mindset?

Is Gakpo quietly telling Slot: ā€œI’m still here, and I’m not giving up without a fightā€?

šŸ“Š Gakpo’s Liverpool Numbers Don’t Lie

2022/23: 26 apps | 7 goals | 2 assists

2023/24: 53 apps | 16 goals | 6 assists

2024/25: 49 apps | 18 goals | 6 assists

2025/26 so far: 4 apps | 1 goal | 2 assists

Not exactly the stats of a player who should be left out, right?

🚩 Here’s the Twist

Gakpo is actually the only natural left winger in Liverpool’s squad right now. Sure, Federico Chiesa and Rio Ngumoha can step in, but Gakpo is the most proven option. Add Slot’s love for rotating forwards, and suddenly Gakpo’s role feels far from over.

šŸ’¬ Now it’s over to you, Reds fans:
Do you think Gakpo will force his way back into the XI and bench one of the big-money signings? Or will he become Liverpool’s ā€œsuper-subā€ this season?

Drop your thoughts ā¬‡ļø – this debate is only getting started.
