The thrilling 2-2 draw between Manchester United and Liverpool has sparked numerous conversations, with one particular performance standing out for a Manchester United player. Reflecting on the match, the United star expressed surprise at the impact of Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo.

“My team took the lead in the game, but I have to admit I’ve never encountered such a fiercely aggressive player like him in the league,” the United player revealed. “It wasn’t Salah, nor was it Van Dijk—it was Gakpo. His movement, physicality, and intelligence on the ball were outstanding.”

Cody Gakpo, who hasn’t been a regular starter for Liverpool this season, was handed a critical role in the match by manager Arne Slot. The Dutch international made the most of the opportunity, showcasing his ability to create chances, apply relentless pressure, and unsettle Manchester United’s defense.

Even Liverpool fans, initially skeptical about Gakpo’s selection, were quick to recognize his influence on the game. A supporter commented, “This is the Gakpo we signed! He was incredible tonight. Give him more chances, and he’ll shine consistently.” Analysts echoed these sentiments, with one stating, “Gakpo has flown under the radar for much of this season, but tonight he showed his worth. He played with courage, focus, and poise.”

Gakpo’s performance against United may prove to be a pivotal moment in his Liverpool journey. Despite limited appearances so far, his ability to rise to the occasion in such a crucial encounter has undoubtedly given his manager something to think about as Liverpool continues its quest for the title.

For Manchester United, their player’s acknowledgment highlights just how difficult it was to contain Gakpo’s influence. With displays like this, Gakpo is poised to secure a permanent place in Liverpool’s starting eleven. Though the 2-2 draw left both sets of fans wanting more, one takeaway is clear—Cody Gakpo is ready to leave his mark on the Premier League.
