Jürgen Klopp has vowed to overhaul Liverpool's midfield's organisational scheme. There is now a player there named Harvey Elliott, but he is not the only one that fits this description, Bobby Clark is a rising star with similar characteristics, Curtis Jones came before him on a similar route, and Fábio Carvalho seems to be a number 10 who,
For now, plays wide left but might become a number eight, the goal is to transform Liverpool's midfield into what supporters had yearned for when it comprised of Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, and the 'functional' Gini Wijnaldum, without their 'own Kevin De Bruyne, Elliott has received criticism for some of his performances this season.
Not simply because of his age, but also because it is unfair to the youngster. He has played more football than he should have, and more adaptation has been required of him than it should have been.
Elliott is a creative outlet with a lot of skill and the ability to penetrate defenses, but as a number eight, he is expected to do more of that,
Which is crucial for supporting Trent Alexander-Arnold, another player who wants to be going forwards, this season, gaps have repeatedly been found in Liverpool's midfield, and individuals like Elliott have been unable to provide the same type of effort that Wijnaldum performed, however, it should come as no surprise that
Their main purpose is to serve as more attacking stars. Furthermore, Fabinho and Henderson are no longer physically able to complete as much work as they once could. Elliott wouldn't be a problem if he played for Liverpool and the other 11 players were all at the top of their game. However, he is not, and as a result, the defensive characteristics are more prominently displayed.
