3. Neco Williams - 387
Jurgen Klopp is known for his team-rotation strategy that keeps his players' morale high. He is also the kind of manager who never shies away from giving opportunities to the club's young talents.
One such youngster who has benefitted from his coach's trust in him is the 20-year-old Neco Williams. Neco Williams joined Liverpool's academy as a boy and progressed through the ranks. He was a crucial member of Liverpool's youth teams.
A consistent level of performance eventually earned Neco Williams an invitation to the first team. On 30 October 2019, he made his debut for the senior side against Arsenal in the EFL Cup final and achieved a victory. Williams kept shining in a squad full of teenagers.
He continued to play for Liverpool, majorly in EFL games, before being loaned to Fulham in January 2022.
2. Nathaniel Phillips - 134
Nathaniel Phillips made just three appearances for Liverpool in the on-going season. He first featured as a second-half substitute in Liverpool's EFL victory over Preston North End on 28th October 2021. He then played in the Reds' 2-0 victory at home against Atletico Madrid in the UCL group stage fixture.
On 8th December, Nathaniel Phillips played the full 90 minutes for his side against AC Milan in their last UCL group stage game. He displayed a fine performance and helped his team secure a 1-2 victory.
The defender expressed his desire to leave the club for more time on the pitch. The club accepted his request and sanctioned a loan move to AFC Bournemouth.
1. Adrían - 90
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp hands out opportunities to his non-regular players whenever he sees an opportunity. The Merseysiders were about to face a relatively weaker team, Preston North End, in the 4th round of the EFL Cup. Klopp saw that as the perfect opportunity to rest his regular players and implement team-rotation.
Many players featured in the game and the club's second-choice goalkeeper Adrian got his chance too. He was successful in keeping a clean sheet and helping his team advance to the next round.
After the game, Adrian was back to being second fiddle to Alisson Becker.
