"I know he's a good player, but he looks like he's playing for the youth team, or the Under-21s. He looks so naive; he looks like a baby out there. He's losing 50-50s with Neto! He's had Premier League experience, it's not like he's come in from another country. He's got a lot of games under his belt, he's played at these grounds before, so I expected him to slot in."
"One, he's playing alongside Virgil Van Dijk, the best centre half in the world, so if you want to play in a back four, you want to play with great defenders and he is doing. And he's got players who work hard on that side, it's not like he's playing on the right with Salah in front of him, which is always a bit more difficult because you always get a little bit more exposed"
Chelsea secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge when 18-year-old substitute Estevao Willian scored in the 95th minute. Moises Caicedo opened the scoring early for Chelsea and Cody Gakpo levelled in the second half for Liverpool. The defeat continued a troubling run for Liverpool, with consecutive losses and late goals surrendering momentum. Former England right-back Gary Neville singled out left-back Milos Kerkez for harsh criticism, calling him naive and likening him to a youth-team player, noting Kerkez's struggles in 50-50s and perceived failure to slot into the back four alongside Virgil van Dijk.
