Liverpool star at risk of half-time substitution as BBC pundit raises concerns

BBC pundit Clinton Morrison believes Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola could be forced to substitute James McConnell at half-time after the youngster picked up an early yellow card against Chelsea. The Reds are facing their Premier League rivals in the Carabao Cup, with Iraola making seven changes to his starting lineup and handing opportunities to several younger players. However, McConnell’s early booking has raised concerns about whether the midfielder can safely remain on the pitch for the remainder of the contest.
