Once tipped as the most promising left-back in Europe, Alberto Moreno has become nothing but a benchwarmer at Liverpool. When you’re deemed not good enough to start over James Milner at left-back, then something is truly wrong.

In addition to that, any time the Spaniard has stepped onto a pitch for the Reds, he’s displayed a gung-ho mentality that shows no discipline or restraint. His performances have shown no tactical or game understanding, often costing Liverpool.

In return, Jürgen Klopp has left him to rot on the bench, even though their only other LB in Joe Gomez was out injured. Instead of helping Liverpool offset their defensive problems, the Spaniard is now a £70,000-a-week burden.
