Trey Nyoni’s Liverpool career hit two big milestones this week after the youngster followed up his first Premier League start with a maiden goal for the Reds. Nyoni was arguably Liverpool’s best player during their disappointing Champions League defeat against Fenerbahce, and with Ryan Gravenberch now injured, the 19-year-old will likely keep his place for the visit to Selhurst Park this Sunday.However, while Nyoni’s rise has been good news amid two worrying losses for the Reds, Jamie Carragher has claimed that his impressive displays have shone a light on what looks like a poor decision to hand Gravenberch and Dominik Szoboszlai bumper new deals.Liverpool LOSE 3-2 to Fenerbahce… what is your reaction to that performance? 😳 Nyoni highlights poor Liverpool decisions Nyoni was always likely to make an impact at Liverpool this season after the Reds opted to put faith in him to step up rather than sign a replacement for Curtis Jones.
“Nyoni and Ngumoha were the best players for Liverpool, and they were a week or so ago against Chelsea,” the Liverpool legend told CBS Sports Golazo after Wednesday’s game.“But they also play in a position of players where Liverpool have spent big money. With Trey Nyoni in midfield, Liverpool haven’t spent expensively on a player as such, but they’ve given big contracts this summer to Ryan Gravenberch – who was left out at the weekend for Trey Nyoni – and Szoboszlai who played tonight and didn’t play particularly well.” "The squad Liverpool have got is very expensive but not as good as it should be and not as balanced as it should be."@Carra23 questions Liverpool's return on investment 🗣️ pic.twitter.com/YSOQdgiSqh— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) November 4, 2026 View X READ MORE: Alexander Isak explains why Liverpool fans do not need to panic despite consecutive defeats “It doesn’t matter the figures, but you can imagine the type of figures they will be on.
You basically haven’t spent your money well enough.” Although Szoboszlai’s new deal was being clamoured for by supporters, his performances this season have suggested that his extension could soon be viewed as an expensive mistake. So, while Nyoni’s performances are obviously a big bonus for Andoni Iraola, the possibility that he becomes a permanent fixture in the XI instead of either Gravenberch or Szoboszlai is definitely a somewhat embarrassing scenario for Liverpool.
