Skrtel excited about young talent coming through at Liverpool

Martin Skrtel is excited about the talent coming through at Liverpool.

The Reds boast four members of England's U17 European Championship squad, while fullback John Flanagan made a winning debut against Manchester City on Monday.

When asked about Flanagan's display, Skrtel told LFC TV: "He was brilliant. He is just 18 and on the pitch he looked like an experienced player.

"I think he showed his best and he showed he can be a very good player.

"The young guys from the Academy have already got a chance in the first team, like Martin Kelly, Jay Spearing, Flanno and Peter Gulacsi.

"They are still young players but they are part of the first team.

"We can see they are the future of Liverpool FC and it is on the right way. These players can be big in the future of Liverpool."
