Kuyt recently stated that he still believes Gakpo has the potential to be a 20-goal striker for the Reds.

Kuyt acknowledged that Gakpo faced a difficult assignment when he first arrived in England, being thrown immediately into the starting lineup in January.

And, despite his success, Kuyt believes he is now ready to perform at his peak.

Klopp has had to deal with an unprecedented number of significant injuries in recent seasons.

However, thanks to his summer additions, Klopp is now well placed to deal with the absence of Thiago and Bajcetic at Liverpool.

Ryan Gravenberch is finally finding his footing alongside players like Alexis Mac Allister.

And Liverpool fans will be ecstatic to see another 90 minutes of Dominik Szoboszlai when the opportunity arises.

The Hungary international has settled quickly and appears to be an important part of this team.
