Jeremie Frimpong

Frimpong gets from his own half to the opposition byline faster than almost anyone else on the pitch, turning defensive transitions into attacking overloads before the opposition has organised. He began his career further forward as a winger, and that background shows in his comfort receiving the ball high and wide rather than staying disciplined in a deeper shape. His crossing and cutbacks from the right have become a genuine source of chances.

Frimpong's game is built around a threat that only really works if the space in behind him is properly covered by a teammate or the midfield shape ahead of him. Liverpool's system asks a great deal of recovery running from a full back this advanced, and there will be matches where his positioning gets exposed. Watch how quickly he tracks back after an attack breaks down, because that discipline decides how much freedom he keeps.
