Victor Munoz makes himself undroppable after outrunning everyone in Liverpool vs Man City

Victor Munoz has surely cemented himself as one of Liverpool's first names on the team sheet after his display against Manchester City.

The Spaniard was electric against the Citizens, with Andoni Iraola likely having little reason to take him out now.

The build-up to the game was mainly focused on the 114 charges placed upon the Manchester side, but following Ryan Gravenberch's red card, they managed to pick up a 3-0 win.

Before the red card, it could have been anyone's game, and Liverpool were causing the Sky Blues plenty of problems.

With Munoz typically at the focal point of those situations at Anfield.

The Reds have plenty of attacking talent, and making yourself an option that cannot be ignored is exactly what Munoz produced on Sunday afternoon.

Why Victor Munoz is making himself undroppable at Liverpool

Iraola will be far from happy with the result against Man City, but the truth is the red card changed the game.

If it weren't for the sending-off, the Merseyside club had every chance at securing a win, with Munoz likely to have been at the heart of it.

His work rate against Man City was infectious, with Gary Neville stating on Sky Sports' coverage after just 23 minutes that the Spaniard was a "nuisance."

Throughout the rest of the game, he remained that against Nico O'Reilly.

As per FotMob, no player completed more sprints than Munoz' 21, while he also came in with the game's highest clocked speed.

He was captured to have run as fast as 35.6 kilometres per hour at Anfield.

Additionally, only Alexis Mac Allister ended up covering more distance (11.4km) than Munoz (10.8km) in a Liverpool shirt.

Not the Reds' day at the office, but it was certainly the Spaniard's.

What is Liverpool's best attack?

With Munoz surely in line to maintain his place, Iraola has significant decisions to make at Liverpool.

Florian Wirtz was once more far off the pace, and it is hard to come up with any reason for him to continue in the number 10.

Dominik Szoboszlai should be given that role, with another midfielder dropping deeper instead.

Munoz should retain his spot on the right, with Bradley Barcola keeping his spot for now.

He is still adapting to life in L4, with Rio Ngumoha waiting in the wings for his chance as well.

Up top, Liverpool will be hoping that Alexander Isak passes fit soon, but Lewis Koumas has impressed.
