Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp believes his youngster Curtis Jones can offer a lot more in the coming months and years.
Jones has played a lot more than expected in midfield, due to injuries in defence pushing the likes of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson into central defensive duties.
It was another special display from Jones as the Reds won 2-0 away from home in the Premier League against Sheffield United on Sunday.
Asked about Jones, Klopp told reporters: "There is a lot to come from Curtis. The potential is exceptional.
"We had a lot of talks this week, video sessions as well and we showed him just that he has to be more in these decisive areas because he's very good with the ball, his control is good.
"He controls the game really, keeps the ball – that's all really good – but a player with this quality we need him in finishing situations as well tonight. It worked out really well, so happy about that."
