The Anfield Wrap · Barcola, Gakpo and Liverpool's Options In Midfield | The Gutter · 30 Jul 2026 podcast

I think there will be times where, you know, if Liverpool have got two sitters and just say it's Gravenberg and Ailder, maybe it's McAllister if they keep hold of them and stuff, but they'll have to have a think about that in terms of where McAllister was last year with form.

But,

Areola's already said he likes him, so maybe it's him, maybe it's someone else.

But then if you've got the three behind, Isaac, you know, maybe it is Barker, maybe it is Wirtz, and maybe it is Subbas, like, more pulling to the right-hand side, because you've got to, I think, sometimes... Also, Harvey Elliott comes into play.

Harvey Elliott, and listen, this can be game-dependent.

It doesn't mean they set up like that every game, but certainly in a big game, if you're trying to get Wirtz into the team, they've got to think about what's going on behind them as well.

And I think last year...

Listen, Wirtz, you buy him because of what he offers you, offensively, of course, but defensively, there's clearly a bit of a lack of physicality there.

So by playing so boss-like, almost next to him, but on that right-hand side and tucking in at times, that does give you a bit more of a robustness in midfield where he can support and help.

And this is the debate that Liverpool fans will have.

But even...

Even when you've got absolute top draw players.

So when I think about France in the World Cup, obviously they're playing a lot of the time with four forwards.

And that's all very well and good.

And you will dismiss a lot of teams playing like that if the lads are all elite.

So you think about Dembele, Alisse, obviously Mbappe and stuff.

All really top players.

And Barclay was playing left hand side that day as well, but obviously playing teams who maybe aren't at the level.

But in that semi-final, they come up against a really switched on team in Spain, so just fucking help number them.

And you can have all the attacking talent you want, but if you can't get the ball, and obviously you've got lads there, and maybe Barclay and Dembele, who aren't as comfortable tracking back.
