Harry Kewell points out Thiago's problem at Liverpool

Thiago Alcántara arrived last summer at Liverpool, but he has not finished reaching his best level in the English club. Oldham Athletic coach and former Liverpool footballer Harry Kewell is clear about the problem that the Spanish international is having in the ranks of the Anfield team. The former Australian footballer confesses a great admirer of Thiago and is convinced that it is a matter of time before he adapts to the Premier League and can show all his talent.

Speaking to Ladbrokes, Kewell spoke of Thiago: “I think Thiago Alcántara is one of the best players in the world. People may disagree with that, but I think he's trying too hard right now. His game vision is brilliant, his layout is excellent. You just have to adapt to the English style. When he does, Liverpool will have a phenomenal midfielder in their ranks. When people say that in football you have to associate, especially in the midfield area, I agree to a certain extent, but unfortunately now we are in a time when games are played quickly. “

Thiago came to Liverpool from Bayern Munich in a transfer that cost 30 million euros, but since arriving at Anfield he has not lived up to expectations. At the beginning of the season he was away from the pitch for more than two months due to a knee injury and Klopp recently had to defend his midfielder from criticism. Klopp is under a lot of pressure for Thiago to partner in the core with Henderson, but Kewell is aware that rotations are essential: “It is impossible to have couples who can play together constantly all season. You will likely be able to play a maximum of 30 games in a season if you stay injury and suspension free. So you need at least four different options in that area of ​​midfield, so it shouldn't matter that Thiago couldn't play with Jordan Henderson as much as we would have liked this season. “
