Liverpool U21 coach Lewtas delighted with fully fit Gordon

Liverpool youngster Kaide Gordon has been described as a real match winner.

The talented attacker has not had the best of times over the past couple of years with injuries.

However, he is now fully fit and was part of a 3-0 win for the youth team against Manchester United on Friday.

“He promised me a hat-trick but I'll take the one goal! His performances have been really good," said the boss Barry Lewtas post-game.

"We do our bit, they do their bit (the first team), the proof is in the pudding and both clubs get players in the first team. To be fair, Kaide has been a real goal threat for us. This was it all (coming) together.

"His work rate was phenomenal, when we fixed a few things at half time he took it on board. His ability to carry the ball, good passes, good finishes, good decisions. It was his best performance for us by far, a real match winner."
