Neco Williams would have been the perfect solution for Liverpool this seasonOf course, Williams still isn’t the best right-back in the Premier League or anything like that, but, since he’s been regularly chosen, the best version of him seems to have come out. This was proven in Thursday’s game between England and Wales when Stephen Warnock, while speaking on BBC Radio Five Live, lauded the right-back for a ball he put into England’s box.

“The first moment of quality from Wales,” he said.“Neco Williams swings in an absolute beauty of a ball, and David Brooks is unattended at the back post.“Credit to Jordan Pickford, he almost saved it with his thigh – very unconventional.”Arne Slot is haunted by the decision that Jurgen Klopp made on Neco WilliamsOne of the Reds’ main problem areas this season has been their right-back. Jeremie Frimpong was brought in to try and be their answer to the exit of Alexander-Arnold, but, in reality, it’s clear that he’s not strong enough defensively to be the Reds’ right-back.

Of course, the attacking prowess he brings to Slot’s starting XI is second to none, but it feels like Williams would be a much better option. At the moment, it’s anyone’s guess what could happen, but for now, it feels like Slot would welcome a player of Williams’ calibre with open arms.
