Liverpool fans have been gushing over Adama Traore for his performance against the Reds on Thursday.
This comes after the Wolves winger put in a blistering display in the match despite his team losing 2-1 to Jurgen Klopp’s side.
Was Traore Wolves' best player against Liverpool?
Yes
No
The Spaniard’s performance caught the attention of a number of Liverpool fans who were taken aback with what they saw from the winger.
Here’s a sample of Liverpool fans praising Traore:
I’m so relieved that it’s the last time we’re playing against Traore this season. He’s a monster on the pitch ? #LFC pic.twitter.com/DWZcFKEs2v

One fan even stated that Jurgen Klopp can turn him into Kylian Mbappe, who sees a move to Liverpool as an attractive proposition, according to Julien Laurens.
If #LFC get Adama Traore , Klopp can turn him into Mbappe . Trust me .
He has the speed and strength. Just needs better final product which he has already improved on from last year.

Traoré simply impossible to deal with he’s torn Robertson to pieces tonight. Class again from Allison (as always) and a very very sweet 3 points. #LFC

The winger, who is valued at £25.2 million (as per Transfermarkt), earned himself a match rating of 8.03 according to WhoScored, the highest of any Wolves player on the pitch. After the match ended, a number of Liverpool fans shared their thoughts on how impressed they were with his performance in the game.
That one feels big. Always knew Wolves would be tough and they proved it. Hardest game we’ve had this season. Adama Traore is exceptional. But Liverpool only know how to win. 3 points closer. We are absolutely elite #LFC

One fan even mentioned the club’s owners, Fenway Sports Group, begging them to sanction a summer move for the attacker.
Tell Fenway to bring adama traore to Anfield this summer!!!!!

Traore adding hold up play, work rate and end product to his monstrous ability has really made him a player. Hard to find someone as capable. You’d take him wouldn’t you. #LFC

What do we think?
It’s nice to see so many Liverpool fans taking the time to appreciate how well Traore played against them. The praise he is getting from them must be flattering for him. The fact that some fans were nervous when he was on the ball shows just how dangerous a player he is, but it’s unlikely Wolves would let him go with so little of January left.
