Liverpool assured as Lampard says: Wilson deserves greater press

Derby County boss Frank Lampard says Harry Wilson has deserved greater press this season.

The on-loan Liverpool midfielder again impressed for the Rams in their Carabao Cup win at Manchester United.

Lampard said, "I'm delighted for Harry. Mason [Mount] has been getting the plaudits, rightly so, but Harry I feel sorry for because he's been injured and then had to get fit.

"But in the two games he's come back in, he started at the weekend and was fantastic and then again at Old Trafford. That's not easy to come here with one game in the bank in the last six weeks.

"The free kick was a mixture of quality and hard work. Him and Mason Mount stay out hitting free kicks. I have to call them in sometimes. That's what happens. It doesn't always happen at Old Trafford, so he should certainly enjoy this one."

Wilson is on a straight loan at Derby with no option to buy.
