Ian Rush has admitted Cody Gakpo may have to become a more selfish player if he is to get his Liverpool career up and running.
The Dutch international has failed to score in any of his first six appearances since joining the club at the start of the January transfer window. Optimism was in the air upon the announcement of this deal, having demonstrated his goalscoring ability at PSV both last season and in the early stages of the current campaign.
Gakpo left his boyhood club with an impressive nine goals and 12 assists to his name from 14 league appearances in 2022/23, though has been guilty of snatching at opportunities that have come his way since moving to Merseyside. Already under pressure from some supporters to start delivering, the 23-year-old will be eager to end his barren run more than anyone else.
