Liverpool: Lost Potential – The Next Roberto Carlos?

Like that Yahoo in his sports column article, James Martin notes,

“Kerkez Milos could have been the new Roberto Carlos in the first six months at Anfield”but it didn’t happen, so the sale of his post-rival, Andy Robertson, to Tottenham would have been a serious risk.

Liverpool would have received “pennies”, moreover, they would not have had a “drop-in” left-back alongside the Hungarian national team player until the end of the season, he said.

According to the article, Kerkez continues to enjoy the trust of Arne Slot and his performance has visibly improved in recent weeks, but the former English national team player, Joe Cole according to him, it is still too early to say that he has completely taken over Robertson’s role.

– From Liverpool’s point of view, I was a little surprised because Kerkez – although he is getting better – hasn’t really fit into the system yet Cole said on the subject. – If Liverpool were playing in a cup final tomorrow, I’m not sure the manager wouldn’t be thinking of Robertson in such a tense situation.

Although based on Slot’s decisions so far, even Kerkez could start in a big game, a significant part of experts and fans still see the routine Scotsman as the safer solution. Robertson’s experience, his harmony with Van Dijk and his constant danger in attack remain a strong argument in his favor, the article says.

According to Cole, this is not a criticism of Kerkez, but rather a testament to how high Robertson has set the bar over the years. The future of the Hungarian defender remains promising, but in order for him to be clearly considered Liverpool’s long-term left-back, he will need more convincing performances.
