The England defender has been dropped by Klopp despite being available

There are inexplicable things in football, how to suffer in one area of the pitch and have it available to you. In The Pool the defence has been a constant problem for Klopp who has had to vary in most of the games, for example in the last game where Virgil van Dijk was unavailable.

Not only has the Oranje captain been missing from the starting eleven, but Ibrahima Konaté, Calvin Ramsay and Joe Gomez have also been dropped throughout the season by Klopp. But despite this, there are players like Nathaniel Phillips who have been all but written out of the German's starting line-up.

26-year-old Nathaniel Phillips began his professional career as a Red's youth player in 2016, coming through the youth ranks at U-21 and U-23 before going out on loan to the Bundesliga twice with VFB Stuttgart, returning to Anfield in 2020 to go out on loan again to AFC Bournemouth.

<strong>The sad story of the Englishman who has been devalued in the market</strong>

According to Transfermarkt Nat fetched around €8m at his peak, and now with his limited minutes at The Pool, around €6k on the market. Sadly the Englishman has barely played a single game in the Premier League and has not played since last January in the FA Cup. Salary Sports the defender earns £24,000 per week, £1,248,000 per year.
