Nothing looks to have changed from last season 😒 Photo Credit: Getty Images/Liverpool FC Both are likely to come under consideration by Iraola, while Sunday’s match also confirmed that Lewis Koumas is front and central in his thinking as well.Koumas has had a really good summer, and was surprisingly handed 75 minutes to impress the head coach against Monaco. With Iraola clearly keen to take a closer look at him, supporters on Rousing The Kop‘s social media pages were impressed by Koumas, and have decided on the whole that they’d like to see him kept around the Liverpool squad this season.Liverpool fans keen to see Koumas stayAlthough not everything was perfect from Koumas – he should probably have scored on the volley after good work by Cody Gakpo and soon after passed up on the chance to slip Alexander Isak in when taking on a shot inside the area – he was largely very good.The 20-year-old looks full of running and has pace, something badly missing from Arne Slot’s attacking options last season.

As a result, and on the back of his performances across the summer so far, fans on RTK‘s Facebook page want to see Koumas given a further chance.READ MORE: What is already clear about Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak under Andoni Iraola at Liverpool“Most definitely [he should be in the senior squad],” said one supporter, with another adding that he ‘plays well from the wing.’“I think he complements Frimpong really well covering for him while he gets forward,” noted another fan, highlighting Koumas’ impressive work-rate and defensive sense.“The boy is good,” someone else admitted. “I wonder why Slot didn’t involve all these boys we are seeing today.”One more fan suggested Koumas should be kept for the bench, while someone else claimed that he is ‘a baller’ and should be kept around.Photo by Naomi Baker/Getty ImagesOver on RTK‘s X page, the opinion was slightly more split, with polar opposite views expressed.“Hundred percent yes [he should stay. [Would] love to know what the lad eats for breakfast,” one fan commented.“Championship player at best..

Good attitude, but not good enough,” countered another supporter.While it would be nice to see Koumas stay, and he certainly deserves to have a conversation with Iraola after what he’s shown over the past few matches, the final comment perhaps best illustrates where he is truly at. There are plenty of signs that he could offer something to Liverpool, and his attitude does look top-class.
