Liverpool's internationals have endured a mixed start to Euro 2024 so far as new head coach Arne Slot watches on from afar
It has been an underwhelming start to the summer for Liverpool’s internationals currently taking part in Euro 2024.
With both players being captains of their nations, the pressure on their shoulders is inevitably even greater, and has seen them singled out for criticism by the likes of Roy Keane and Andros Townsend. Virgil van Dijk has fared better at least, captaining the Netherlands to a 2-1 victory over Poland in the Dutch’s opening game before helping them keep a clean sheet in a 0-0 draw with France, while Diogo Jota had a goal disallowed when stepping up his comeback from injury as a 63rd minute substitute in Portugal’s 2-1 win over Czechia.
The likes of Robertson and Jota plagued by injury throughout the campaign for example, while Szoboszlai has been horribly out of form since first suffering a hamstring injury at the turn of the year. In contrast, Gakpo was one of the Reds’ best performers as their 2023/24 campaign drew to a close. “And hoping that most of them - especially the Dutch! - will still be as long as possible away so they will reach the final. Then afterwards I will get to meet them and I think that's a better way of getting to know each other than by phone or Zoom meetings.”
The Argentine was one of Liverpool’s players of the season during his first year at Anfield, even if he endured a slow finish to the campaign as the Reds struggled overall. But with the Premier League season now finishing over a month ago, he appears to have started the Copa America well.
