Liverpool lost to Crystal Palace this weekend and one of their players has been told to leave after being dropped to the bench by Jurgen Klopp.
The Reds mustered up plenty of good chances against Palace but couldn’t take any of them as Ebere Eze’s goal proved enough to win the game.
Once again Darwin Nunez was guilty of missing a big chance as Jamie Carragher lamented the big striker for once again coming up short in front of goal.
Nunez wasn’t alone mind, as both Diogo Jota and Mo Salah had massive opportunities as well.

A returning Alisson didn’t have too much to do, albeit he did make a stunning reaction save at close range to keep out Jean-Phillipe Mateta.

Of course, Alisson’s return from injury meant that Caoimhin Kelleher was dropped to the bench after doing well in recent weeks.
Kelleher, valued at around £30m by the Reds, is seen as one of the best number twos in the league.
But with Alisson clearly number one and not going anywhere just yet, Kelleher might need a change this summer if he is to become a regular starter.

“I’d have to play. I’d be leaving, for sure. I had that at Spurs. Spurs had made a decision at board level that they wanted to be young and British and I was neither and so yeah, we had a lot of conversations and I had the opportunity to go to ‘Gladbach and play,” Keller said.
Caoimhin Kelleher gets in a lot of Premier League teams
There comes a time in a lot of players’ careers where they need to look elsewhere and that time is coming for Caoimhin Kelleher.
Now 25, the Ireland international cannot afford to sit around and just hope that he gets the better of Alisson.
Alisson has years ahead of him himself and it’s hard to imagine a new manager coming into Liverpool and simply discarding the experienced Brazilian.

Kelleher, then, needs to get his agents working for him and find a way out this summer. There will be so many teams in the Premier League and Europe who would take him as well.
Much like we’ve seen with Dean Henderson at Palace, a move away from a huge club can be beneficial and it’s something Kelleher now needs to push through.
