OPINION
These verdicts are right – Gini Wijnaldum was completely assured throughout the 3-1 win over Manchester United on Sunday, and he thoroughly deserves all of the praise he has got here for a top game after being named to start. Like one fan pointed out, he is such an “underrated” player, because it is not often him that receives the plaudits. Yes, admittedly he has been blowing hot and cold this season, but that does not take away the fact that he was “superb” on Sunday. Another supporter has highlighted the fact that he is able to play well alongside various midfield partners, which is also a testament to how good he has been recently. Being able to adapt to different playing styles and ability is a great attribute to have, and Liverpool are lucky to have such a player on their hands. He is even one fan’s “favourite player so far this season” – and if he carries on in the way that he is, he will be everyone’s favourite player.

How good is Gini Wijnaldum though? Played vs Napoli then vs Utd with different midfield partners who have different strengths and weaknesses. Doesn’t always get the credit he deserves

Gini Wijnaldum and Fabinho have both been outstanding all game. Man of the match might as well be split for the both to share. #LFC
