Liverpool U18 boss Hughie McAuley is happy with the progress of former Barcelona striker Dani Pacheco this season.

The Spaniard struck in last week's 5-3 FA Youth Cup defeat to Sunderland and McAuley told liverpoolfc.tv: "He's a good player who can get hold of the ball and pass it with good vision and he showed good examples of that in the game. He can produce something special and score goals so it was good to have him playing for us and he took his goal really well."
