Marvellous. Amazing some folk arent convinced by Harvey's form before he got crocked at Leeds. I really think this lad is going to deliver.

[bossy]

Delighted for Elliott, and his dad. He looked right on it as soon as he got on the pitch. Looks proper.

[TheDrowningMan]

I think I said last year that the absolute worst he’ll be is a very good Premier League player. I reckon we’ve got a special one here.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Skills, confidence and drive to improve and fight. He'll be good.

[stringvest]

He’s our RM for the next 10 years

[the chimp]

He is in the pantheon of great Elliotts - TS, Fred, the lad from E.T.

 

He's a superstar in the making.

And Ness of course.

Absolutely fantastic talent, glad we have him, I say, absolutely fantastic talent, glad we have him.

He gives us different tactical options on the right. Trent can come inside - which poses the threat of a Gerrard-esque 25 yarder and Elliot can fill in on the wing. We can't do that with Henderson because he offers no threat on the wing.

He is gold - erm I mean Gould.

[Captain Turdseye]

The record will show that I was his biggest fan. 

[m0e]

He's clearly left footed. I honestly thought his natural was his right.

[Carvalho Diablo]

I'm still not completely sold on the lad but admittedly, he was excellent yesterday.

 

If he can really kick on again and elevate his game to an even higher level, turning it on in big games against top teams, then that would be huge for both Elliott himself and LFC.

 

The kid is deceptively quick I think, and whilst not being blisteringly fast, he's definitely a couple of steps quicker than our other midfielders and that is something we've been crying out for.

 

I also think Kloppo has him plugged into exactly the best position for him to shine, that inside right / number 8 position, linking with Mo and Trent. If Elliott proves to be the player we all hope he can truly become then we have a lethal triumvirate down that side of the pitch.

 

Honestly can't wait to see how the lad develops.

Fixed that for you Boss

[Guest Alex_K]

He will be a top player. Klopp & the club's approach to him in general (taking him to Club World Championship at barely-turned 16 etc.) has always said all there is to know - especially given this is not an Academy-borne player who the club have a special obligation to.

[3 Stacks]

He profiles perfectly as someone like David Silva. Technically and tactically, he's already so good. He was a magnet for the ball when he came on.

I’m not convinced number 8 is his best position. He’s clearly more of an AM than a CM and Klopp demands a lot defensively from his CMs.

The right sided one has been getting forward a lot more this season though, especially if Thiago plays as the left centre mid.  Where else would you play him?

I think AMR or AMC in 4-2-3-1 would suit him best in the long run.

Would be nice if Henderson and Milner could learn a lesson or two from Harvey and Thiago on how to move the ball quickly....

 

The difference in ball-tempo and technique was ridiculous to see.

Being 1 or 2 goals up helped that situation. Elliott looks very talented but he still has to prove consistency and long term fitness before we get all giddy. 

[etho]

He's going to be a fucking brilliant midfielder in a 4-3-3, which is the system we play and will continue to play. 4-2-3-1 is for football manager and FIFA.
