45 | Abdukodir Khusanov - 2025/26

Untimely injury for himself.

He did a couple of daft things in the first 10mins but one of his better performances.

Probably move to the bench with Dias fit, which I think is best for his development and our trophy hopes.
 
Crucial in dealing with the dipper direct threat. Feared the worse when he went off, seemed alright to me and Pep simply chose to sub him off. Dias cannot just walk back into the side, khusanov and Guehi are the future and compliment each other's attributes very well, they have to remain first choice options


Not sure how concussion protocols work, if you're subbed off for that reason, don't you instantly become unavailable for 10 days? Do we even know if it was that? My commentary suggested it was.
 
This concussion protocol thing is confusing me, he can't play for 10 days now? I've never heard of this before.

Hopefully cleared up soon.
 
How was that chance anything to do with him? I’m genuinely interested to see how you see the game!

Because Ekitike was his man who ran behind him to have a clean header and Khusanov was just watching Salah with no idea what was going on around him?

Who do you think was at fault?

If he has a concussion he can't play for at least 10 days I think. But a concussion sub isn't an automatic diagnosis, just needs a doctor to suspect a concussion.
 
He was immense, and yet I also think Dias coming on when he did was really important for us, we needed his leadership in the last 20 minutes and he wouldn't have been there without the injury.
 
One area that concerns me slightly with him is that he isn't great in the air. Apart from that, he's been very good. I think he might be a better RB than CB.

Ekitike ran off MG, who had an outstanding game. But it’s a sport, and everything can’t be perfect all the time. It’s Liverpool away, we gave up one real chance, and then we conceded from a 45 yards free kick.

I think they brought that in along with the replacement sub, not being counted as a normal substitution.
Pity the refs don't clamp gown on these faking head injuries, wouldn't be long stopping the cheating.
 
There is only so many ways I can say the same thing - he’s top. He’ll be essentially a squad player for the next 12 months but he is the business

Is there a better 20 year old defender in the country?!
