Liverpool assistant boss Peter Krawietz admits they're expecting big things from Marko Grujic.

He capped his first appearance for Liverpool with a goal in Wednesday's 5-0 pre-season stroll at League One side Fleetwood.

Krawietz said: “We are very, very optimistic.

“Not [only] since Wednesday, because we knew him before of course. He has had a good start and this is the point from where we can start to work with him and develop improvement with him.

“He has the possibility to play in different positions in midfield.

“He is a young player; he still has to adapt to the Premier League and our style of play. We know you need strong players and tall players – a mixture for Premier League football.

“He has every possibility to adapt quickly."
