Four Reasons Why Naby Keita Deserves More Time To Prove Himself At Liverpool | Walk On - Part 3

2) Keita Has Never Managed To Get A Consistent Run In The Side

Keita

Since the midfielder arrived at the club, he has played just 2941 minutes of first-team football. If you compare that to the likes of Gini Wijnaldum (6832) and Jordan Henderson (5879), you can see there is a large disparity.

Injuries have played a big role in his lack of match action, and if he can stay fit for any length of time, he may get a consistent run in the side.
