“Wataru Endo’s Masterclass Against Southampton: A Bold Message to Arne Slot”
“‘Unstoppable’: Fans Believe Wataru Endo Delivered a Powerful Statement to Arne Slot with Southampton Display”
Wataru Endo has mostly been on the fringes this season, failing to start in both the Premier League and Champions League. However, the Carabao Cup has given him a valuable opportunity to demonstrate his talent.
In Liverpool’s recent match, Wataru Endo seized the spotlight with a tenacious and commanding performance in a hybrid role during the first half, earning widespread praise from fans. His display has ignited calls for Arne Slot to trust him in more high-stakes games.
Fan Reactions:
OgKangs: “A 30-year-old relatively unknown Japanese CDM for £13m who wears a gumshield—oddly specific, but this might be my favorite kind of signing.”
HighlyBaked0: “How can you not be romantic about Wataru Endo?”
elGueroWey: “If Slot doesn’t rate Endo after this, I don’t know what to say.”
DogmaticMagmaFox: “Endo is playing like a man possessed, proving he deserves a shot under Slot.”
Argo_Menace: “Endo is playing as if it’s the Copa Libertadores final. Love to see it.”
ducktownfc: “Why can’t Endo be four years younger?! Absolute destroyer, giving 100% every minute.”
wadonious: “I get why Endo doesn’t play more, but it’s such a shame. He’s an incredible destroyer, reliable on the ball, and wins aerial duels he has no business winning.”
With displays like this, Endo is making an undeniable case for a bigger role in Liverpool’s most crucial games.
