Kerkez, who played for Bournemouth before joining Liverpool, has struggled in his appearances for the team. Neville expressed his disappointment with Kerkez's display, stating that he looks like a player from the youth team rather than a professional. He pointed out that Kerkez has had experience playing in the Premier League and has played at challenging grounds before.

Neville emphasized that Kerkez is playing alongside Virgil Van Dijk, one of the world's best center-backs, which should make his job easier. He also noted that Kerkez is surrounded by players who work hard, making it harder for him to struggle. However, Neville believes that Kerkez has struggled since the start of the season, citing his performance in the first game against Bournemouth as an example.
