Liverpool Reach Carabao Cup Semi-Finals, But Jarell Quansah Faces Criticism After Struggling Performance
Liverpool advanced to the Carabao Cup semi-finals with a 2-1 victory over Southampton on Wednesday, but young defender Jarell Quansah’s performance was a cause for concern. The 21-year-old, who made an impressive breakthrough under Jurgen Klopp last season, has found it difficult to replicate that form under new manager Arne Slot.
Social media was flooded with frustrated fans voicing their opinions, with many calling for Quansah to improve his game. One fan, V, tweeted: “Endo is a better CB than Quansah and Gomez,” while Rejoice Chinaza added: “Quansah is championship level, not top-level championship, all those relegation clubs in the Championship suit him well.”
Some fans were even more critical, with Laurie asking, “How has Quansah gone from looking like a £60m defender to looking like Rhys Williams in the space of a few months?”
However, not all supporters were ready to give up on the young defender. AB tweeted: “Jarell Quansah will come good, even though it’s frustrating to see him drop off after having a stellar breakthrough season, but he will learn and become a better player for it.”
Perhaps the harshest assessment came from David, who humorously wrote: “Bro needs a phone call from Klopp to get his head screwed on right.”
Despite the criticism, many remain hopeful that Quansah can regain his earlier form and develop into a key player for Liverpool in the future.
