Takumi Minamino may no longer be a Liverpool player but he’s still tormenting Premier League defenders.
The Japan international was in action for Monaco yesterday as they faced Arsenal at the Emirates in a pre-season friendly.
Mikel Arteta’s side won the game via penalties after the game finished 1-1 during normal time but Arsenal defender Gabriel will still be having nightmares about our former No. 18 after he sent him for the Echo with a sublime turn inside his own half.
Minamino received a pretty questionable pass from his teammate but controlled the ball superbly with a Cruyff turn and left his Brazilian counterpart with no other option than to drag his shirt and pull him to the ground.

Taki Minamino spinning Gabriel🤣
We had shouts that he was better than Virgil, he’s not better than Gomez. #LFC
