Wataru Endo has largely been on the sidelines this season, failing to start in the Premier League or Champions League. However, the Carabao Cup has given him a chance to shine.
The combative midfielder impressed Liverpool fans with a standout performance in a hybrid role during the first half against Southampton.
Some fans are now calling for manager Arne Slot to involve Endo in more significant matches.
Fan Reactions:
OgKangs: “A 30-year-old relatively unknown Japanese CDM for £13m wearing a gumshield—it’s oddly specific, but this might be my favorite type of signing.”
HighlyBaked0: “How can you not be romantic about Wataru Endo?”
elGueroWey: “If Slot doesn’t rate Endo after this, I don’t know what to say.”
DogmaticMagmaFox: “Endo is playing like a man possessed, showing he deserves more recognition from Slot.”
Argo_Menace: “Endo’s playing like it’s the final of the Copa Libertadores. Love it.”
ducktownfc: “Why can’t Endo be 4 years younger? He’s a proper destroyer, treating every minute like it’s the 90th.”
wadonious: “I get why Endo doesn’t play more, but it’s such a shame. He’s an incredible destroyer, reliable on the ball, and has no business winning as many aerial duels as he does.”
Endo’s impressive display in a three-at-the-back system highlights his potential as a key player for Liverpool. Fans are eager to see him get more opportunities in higher-stakes matches.
