Liverpool legend Steve Nicol has blasted Milos Kerkez following the left-back’s performance in the Reds’ defeat to Manchester United on Sunday. Liverpool’s latest defeat - its first at home this season - raises yet more concerns after what has been a dismal few weeks for the defending champion.

Florian Wirtz found himself on the bench again on Sunday following his record-breaking move from Bayer Leverkusen, while Alexander Isak spurned golden chances to score his first league goals for the club, and earn some points for his new side. It’s Kerkez though that has come in for some particularly heavy criticism since his move from Bournemouth.
