Some Liverpool fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the performance of Naby Keita against Brighton and Hove Albion on Wednesday evening.
Keita was in action for Liverpool in their Premier League game against Brighton away from home at the American Express Community Stadium this evening.
The 25-year-old central midfielder started the match and played for 61 minutes, as Jurgen Klopp’s side – who have already clinched the league title this season – won 3-1.
According to WhoScored, the Guinea international played four key passes, had a pass accuracy of 86.2%, took 43 touches, attempted three dribbles, made two tackles, one interception and one clearance, and put in two crosses.
So far this season, Keita has made six starts and seven substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Reds, scoring one goal and providing two assists in the process, according to WhoScored.
The central midfielder has also scored one goal in four Champions League matches and played twice in the EFL Cup for the Merseyside outfit this campaign, according to WhoScored.
Some Liverpool fans were impressed with the display produced by Keita against Brighton and have praised him on Twitter.
Below are some of the best comments:
Keita’s performance shows again why we’d be mad to move for Thiago (as good as he is). He’s such a classy & unique player.
Use the funds on a forward – which is the crucial area we need to address this summer.

The difference keita brings is massive he’s so key to us attacking and breaking down teams this is why we need thiago to rotate or play together we have no creator to swap with keita

Thought Naby Keita was excellent tonight. If he can keep that level of consistent performance he’s shown since the restart, he’s going to establish himself in the first team next season. #Keita #LFC
