It became even more apparent after half-time, as Ekitike&#8217;s intensity dropped.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\ud83c\udf99\ufe0f\ud835\udde4\ud835\udde8\ud835\udde2\ud835\udde7\ud835\uddd8\ud835\udde6 &#8211; Arne Slot on Hugo Ekitike: \u201cIt felt like he couldn\u2019t move like he did in the first half.

He had two efforts on target, created one chance, made two recoveries, and won three of four ground duels.<\/p>\n<h2>Potential Replacements for Ekitike Against West Ham<\/h2>\n<p>With the defeat to PSV, Liverpool have now lost nine of their last 12 matches in all competitions. They are going through their worst run in 71 years, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportscasting.com\/uk\/news\/liverpool-arne-slot-sack-fan-reaction\/\">fans are calling for Arne Slot&#8217;s sacking<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool, who are on a three-game losing run, travel to London Stadium for their must-win Premier League clash against West Ham.<\/p>\n<p>Ekitike has started eight games for the Reds in the Premier League, suggesting Slot sees him as his first-choice centre-forward.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Chiesa on the pitch for approx. 5 minutes and already doing infinitely more than virtually anyone else in red<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Empire of the Kop (@empireofthekop) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/empireofthekop\/status\/1993796441765236933?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 26, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>If he misses out on Sunday due to injury, Alexander Isak is his like-for-like replacement. However, the Swede has yet to impress, having failed to score in his first five Premier League games for Slot&#8217;s side.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool have another centre-forward option in Federico Chiesa.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian has played just 139 minutes of football across nine games in the Premier League this season. But he has already scored two goals and provided an assist.<\/p>\n<p>With pressure mounting on Slot, Chiesa could offer him something different in the crucial game against West Ham.<\/p>\n<h2>Hugo Ekitike&#8217;s Stats for Liverpool<\/h2>\n<p>Summer signing Hugo Ekitike has been in decent form for Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>In the Premier League, he has scored three goals in 11 appearances, with only Mohamed Salah outscoring him (4 goals). He has also scored one goal each in the EFL Cup and the UEFA Champions League.<\/p>\n<p>Ekitike is Liverpool&#8217;s joint-leading scorer (alongside Salah) this season with five goals.<\/p>\n<p>In the Premier League, he has provided one assist, created seven chances, completed 12 dribbles, and won 32 duels.
