Liverpool fans hope that Cody Gakpo can soon get going and really announce himself as our player, making it clear that the forward is confident in his own ability.
Ahead of the Merseyside derby, the 23-year-old spoke about how he can help us change our form: “I think at the moment it’s a bit difficult for the whole team to get into the right positions to score the goals together. I can help the team there to score the goals”.

Let’s hope the Dutchman can live up to his own billing and find the back of the net for the Reds soon, with the game against Everton providing a brilliant opportunity for him to become the hero.
Our number 18 may well hope to replicate the exploits of his compatriot and now team-mate Virgil van Dijk, scoring the winner in his first derby against the Blues at Anfield.
