Liverpool midfielder featured against Bayern Munich.
Naby Keita’s move to Liverpool has not brought the individual success he had hoped for.
Manager Jurgen Klopp retains faith in the Guinea international, and started him in last night’s Champions League match with Bayern Munich.
The game was a cagey match which did not live up to hype which preceded it, finishing 0-0.
Keita’s performance was praised as a positive by BBC Radio 5 Live co-commentator Dion Dublin.
Dublin said, BBC Sport reported: “I think Naby Keita has done well tonight.
“He’s had lots of the ball and tried to create chances.”
Keita played 75 minutes before being replaced by James Milner.
During this time he had three attempts on goal, but none of them hit the target.
Keita created one goalscoring chance, completing 75 per cent of his passes.
He will hope he has done enough to earn a starting spot this weekend against Manchester United in the Premier League.
