Liverpool made a decisive move in the winter transfer window to snap up talented winger Gap from Manchester United, but the Dutch international has been a disappointment, with no goals and no assists in four games. In Saturday's (21st) match against Chelsea, he hit only one of his seven shots on goal, which made many United fans on the Internet to celebrate "escape", Liverpool's famous Oyun also expressed his sympathy for Gapp.
Gapp has been increasingly underwhelming in games since his £37 million move from Yanhofen to Liverpool. In the game against Chelsea, he had only 1 shot on goal out of 7, did not make any breakthroughs, and had only 1 success out of 7 confrontations. Many Man Utd fans left comments on the internet: "Gap is the Dutch version of Dim Warner, Man Utd got away with it", "I know he's only played 4 games, but he's done nothing in those 4 games", "Luckily Man Utd didn't sign him! , he's a one eater weirdo", "He's the first striker Gop to sign the wrong one in 8 years"...
Despite being labeled as a "water boy", Liverpool star Oyen defended Gap: "To be honest, I feel sorry for Gap, he joined a very unstable team and his confidence has been eroded. It's clear to see that Gapp is working very hard and I'm sure he'll be seen as a successful acquisition in the future, but at least for now, even if Mays joins he won't be able to play any better."
