OPINION

It has been a whirlwind couple of weeks for Adrian, who helped Liverpool pick up the UEFA Super Cup after a penalty shoot-out against Chelsea. It nearly came crashing down after a bizarre altercation with a fan in the celebrations was close to ruling him out of the trip to Southampton. The Reds will be thankful that it didn’t though, as the Spaniard played a big part in the match throughout, especially in the first half after pulling off a great save from Maya Yoshida’s header. It was no secret that Liverpool’s possession-based style suffered slightly at St Mary’s – with the Spaniard not used to playing in a side that uses their keeper as much as the Reds do, but he managed to keep his cool and make sure the absence of Alisson was not too obvious. Liverpool did have to endure a nervy end to the game after Adrian’s poor clearance led to Danny Ings cutting the deficit to one goal in the game – something that most likely enraged some Reds’ fans, but they must forget about that mistake after the Spaniard kept his side in the game in the first half with numerous saves which saw Liverpool eventually win 2-1. Many Liverpool fans took to Twitter to praise the impact of Adrian against the Saints, with one fan even calling the stopper “quality.”
