Midseason Grades for Liverpool’s Transfer Period
By J.R.
Alberto Moreno: D+
Moreno was bought from La Liga side Sevilla for 12 million GBP. The left full back has yet to make a huge impact for the Reds. Moreno has only played in 12 Premier League matches, netting 1 goal.
With Rodgers changing to a 3-4-3 formation, Moreno has seemed to be the odd man out. He has shown great pace and attacking instincts on the pitch. However, his lack of passion and effort on defense has led to a decrease in his playing time.
Moreno, like so many other transfers, will benefit from being able to play in the Europa League. The Spaniard has certainly excited fans in Anfield. But until Moreno shows a dedication to defense he will find himself watching from the sidelines.
