Araujo & Jacquet Have Changed EVERYTHING For Liverpool

Liverpool head into the international break with three points – and Craig has plenty to discuss after a hard-fought victory away at Bournemouth.

On Late Night Live, Craig begins with the huge positives at the back as Jeremy Jacquet continues his outstanding start to life at Liverpool. Jamie Carragher admits he's already getting carried away with the young defender, while Ronald Araujo's impact at right-back is also earning enormous praise. With Liverpool keeping clean sheets and looking increasingly secure defensively, has the club finally found the foundations of its next great back line?

Craig admits the Bournemouth performance was the first time this season he was genuinely disappointed with the German, while Carragher delivers a much more damning assessment – questioning whether what Liverpool are seeing is simply the player Wirtz currently is rather than a temporary loss of form.

Could moving Dominik Szoboszlai into the No.10 role and changing the midfield balance give Liverpool something different – while simultaneously taking Wirtz out of the firing line?
