Steven Gerrard urges Liverpool head coach Arne Slot to bench Cody Gakpo after the team's shocking 2-1 defeat to Wolves. Gakpo struggles to deliver, prompting Gerrard to call for rising star Rio Ngumoha to start. Gerrard criticizes Liverpool’s lack of creativity, stating, “For 65 minutes Liverpool were desperate tonight.” He insists on Ngumoha's inclusion in Friday's FA Cup match, highlighting the youngster's impact in brief appearances. Michael Owen echoes concerns about Gakpo and summer signing Milos Kerkez, who he claims plays like "a bag of nerves." Owen notes Liverpool's decline in key areas compared to last season, emphasizing that Gakpo and Mohamed Salah are not performing at their previous levels. After the loss, Liverpool risks slipping to sixth in the Premier League if Chelsea secures a win against Aston Villa on Wednesday night.
