Gravenberch, definitely in for a rest at the weekend, put in another good display, but it was Nyoni who caught the eye, passing the ball crisply through the lines and putting his foot in where it mattered against LASK. Six of his seven long balls were accurate, suggesting his ability to mix his range up, while Nyoni also made six defensive contributions, taking his responsibility as Liverpool’s deepest-lying midfielder with appropriate seriousness.

His tally of one win in three attempted ground duels could be bettered, but Nyoni did win both of his aerial battles, which could come in handy against Brentford. If Szoboszlai is passed fit, it could still be that the Hungarian starts next to Mac Allister, but if he misses out once again, no supporter should now feel any kind of concern about throwing Nyoni in for his first Premier League start.
