    Solid game so far from Endo. Some good passes. Opens up 2 good attacks and was not much tested in the defense, but look quite focused.

    I would say more to good. Endos play wad quite positive. The Foul from Matip was clearly a foul on Matip. And almost every player today has lost a Ball, that can happen. But when Endo continues like that its fine.

    I really feel like he is struggling with the pace a little

    Yeah a little thats right but it looks like it has more to do with liverpools open tactic. The CBs and WBs are almost not there and the RM and LM is in front of the goal, so there are gigantic gaps and Endo is often totaly alone + its Endo second Start on the PL he needs to adapt. But overall its a solid game.

    He gets good ratings and critics. They said he played safety and gave Liverpool the missing structure which the team has needed.

    And you have to say his superb pass in the first half was genius. He splits the hole defence into parts.

    Sorry for spaming but I want to share more informations with you guys.

    English media for example liverpool.com was measuring Endos play today as the best in his short Liverpool career. They said he played very good and compared him to Rodri (also they say, he is yet not on the same level for Liverpool).

    They said his tactical awarness was good and that he addapt better and better to the speed of the PL.

    Endo played again 90th minutes today and was very good. Also gets much praise and good ratings.

    He is getting more and more playing time. Would be nice if he can make a Tomiyasu and break into the first 11.

    Yeah great goal and necessary too. What a crazy game. Every goal for Liverpool was fantastic. It's like they let the other team score just so they can show off.

    Endo was very strong today and gets much praise and good ratings also. They rate his performance as a "heroic" one.

    + MacAlister is injured. When things are going right he is in the starting line up from now. But lets See.

    Klopp on Endo yesterday.

    Speaking on Amazon Prime Video Sport, the Reds boss sang the praises of one of the Hungarian’s midfield colleagues, gushing: “Wataru Endo – wow! He was outstanding. He was everywhere. He really helped us a lot.”

    Yeah but looks like Endo has a average game which is not that bad. And to be honest the hole Liverpool team with mabye 2-3 players outlined (Salah,Alison) were average today.

    Nontheless he has a 92% Pass rate, 5 duells won out of 10 which ist quite solid and do nothing wrong. He struggled a little with the physicality of palace and dont put in any risk in the offensive but more or less he did his part and I would say he didnt deserve to be subbed at ht. After he was out they fastly conceded the goal after a penalty.

    Endo didn't play well. Lost the ball a few times and almost conceeded a PK due to losing the ball outside the 18 yard box (but he was clearly fouled in the build up play). Any player that gets dragged at half time isn't playing too well.

    I say he was a average not good. . But Endo was not that bad and to be subbed out can also mean you need a new impulse to win a game cause the play of the player is not optimal.Gravenberch and Szoboszlai today played at least not better then Endo and where subbed out later.


    For example after Endo went out they conceded the goal and you can argue that as a plus for Endo. And the PK Situation you cant count cause it was a clear foul on Endo which the referee didnt see. So that a Situation you cant count to badness for Endo cause the PK never happened.

    I wouldnt say Endo was good but after he was out overall Liverpool where way more unbalanced.

    Endo loose the Ball maybe 3-4 times thats true but he didnt do much wrong beneath that ( didnt do much right either) and on the pitch where 4-5 players who played more worse then Endo. The ratings and when you watch the game are confirm that.
