Curtis Jones Absence Explained by Andoni Iraola After Monaco Loss
Iraola said Liverpool lack the energy to sustain their level for 90 minutes after squandering a second straight two-goal lead.
- On Sunday, Liverpool lost 3-2 to Monaco in a friendly at Anfield, with manager Andoni Iraola citing his team's inability to "sustain the required level of performance" throughout the match.
- Iraola noted his squad lacks energy for 90 minutes and struggles to maintain intensity after substitutions, compounded by a 4-2 defeat to Leeds United earlier this month.
- Alongside Alisson Becker and Cody Gakpo, Captain Virgil van Dijk made his return, while Ronald Araujo neared a season-long loan move from Barcelona with an option to buy for around £47.2m.
- Manager Iraola is taking a "cautious approach" with new signing Jeremy Jacquet due to ongoing knee issues, leaving uncertainty about who will partner Van Dijk at centre-back.
- Liverpool has two pre-season matches remaining against Como on August 16 before the Premier League campaign begins with an opening fixture against Newcastle United on August 23.
