'He is flying': Conor Bradley says Liverpool have a 20-year-old youngster who's blown him away recently

8 months ago 151

Conor Bradley is one of many young players at Liverpool who are making their mark on the big stage.

Jurgen Klopp has been forced to give opportunities to a number of youngsters this season because of injuries to his key players.

Many have stepped up and delivered, even against the big teams, and that is a huge compliment to the work done by Liverpool‘s academy.

Bradley has been one of the biggest success stories for Liverpool so far this season. He has been outstanding, but there are a few others who deserve praise too.

Conor Bradley says one Liverpool youngster has been ‘flying’ this season

Jurgen Klopp has built a new squad of sorts at Liverpool, hasn’t he?

Many of his key players from his most successful years at Anfield have left the club, and the German has had to work hard to make his side competitive again.

Yes, Liverpool have spent good money on new players, but a lot of credit must go to the recruitment of younger players as well.

One such talented youngster Liverpool signed back in 2019 is Harvey Elliott.

The 20-year-old can be frustrating to watch at times for Reds fans, but has been really good for Klopp’s side recently.

Conor Bradley, who has impressed everyone himself, had his say on Elliott, and it’s safe to say that he has been blown away by the midfielder’s performances.

Speaking about Elliott on the Premier League’s YouTube channel, Bradley said: “Yeah, he’s flying! He’s scoring some big goals for us too.

“Every time he comes off the bench, he’s a threat in games. He’s been brilliant for us.”

Harvey Elliott needs to improve his output

One thing people forget about Harvey Elliott is that he is still only 20 years old.

The Englishman has been around the Liverpool squad for a few years now, which is why he is sometimes treated in the same way as his more experienced teammates.

That is not right at all, but Elliott is an exceptional footballer, and the only reason why people are sometimes frustrated with him is because they know he can do so much more.

The 20-year-old has scored just three goals and provided eight assists in all competitions this season. That is not awful by any means, but Elliott is capable of producing much better numbers because he has got everything in his game.

We’re sure that will improve as he plays more regularly in the coming years.
