Elliott has mantle of old pro'

HE’S still only 20 so still a ‘kid’, but Harvey Elliott also happens to be one of the most senior players in Liverpool’s new look midfield.

And while he admits to still be struggling to get his head around such a bizarre situation, the England Under-21s regular is taking the responsibility of his insider’s knowledge of Anfield seriously, to help Jurgen Klopp’s new-look team bed in successfully.

Of Liverpool’s eight-man midfield department, which Klopp significantly refreshed this summer, only Curtis Jones with 100, and Thiago on 97, have made more appearances than Elliott, who is approaching ‘experienced’ status, with 73 games under his belt.

It means he has to step up and take responsibility for helping the new signings settle in, and also take a much greater role in creating an environment where Klopp’s “Liverpool 2.0” as the manager calls it, can forge its own identity, and mentality.
