Liverpool midfielder Shelvey delighted with Blackpool debut goal

Liverpool midfielder Jonjo Shelvey was thrilled with his goal on debut for Blackpool.

The on-loan Liverpool midfielder found the net with a fantastic 35-yard free-kick and he played a pivotal role in the victory.

Speaking about his goal, Shelvey told Blackpool's official website: "I just thought I'm going to smash it and see what happens. It came off nicely and started spinning away from the keeper so it was a good goal for me personally.

"The manager has told me to go and express myself and for a player in my position that's what I like to do."
