What do we think?
The 21-year-old was absolutely fantastic in the win over Southampton, and played a pivotal role in bringing three points back to Merseyside.
For the season so far he has a 6.71/10 average rating (as per WhoScored), but with a consistent run in the team coming up due to injuries, hopefully, he will continue to build on his latest performance.
