Andoni Iraola must risk upsetting one Liverpool star this season, even if it means the player could leave Anfield.

Doubts are growing over Giorgi Mamardashvili's long-term future at Liverpool after a challenging first season.

The goalkeeper's performance and a hidden act have caught the eye of his manager and a journalist.

The Georgian goalkeeper is finally in line for his first appearance under the Spaniard, with the EFL Cup at Anfield the stage.

Liverpool are expected to have a quiet deadline day with no more signings and Mamardashvili staying.
