The “outstanding” Liverpool talent was hailed after last night’s historic 3-0 win.
Liverpool youngster Bobby Clark was praised for his performance in the EFL Trophy last night as the Reds won their first game in the competition. The under-21s faced League Two at Morecambe’s Mazuma Stadium as Clark stole the show for the visitors as the teenager pulled the strings to score Liverpool’s third goal. The 3-0 was historic for the Reds as it was their first win in the EFL Trophy and it was also a night to remember for Clark, who may have just put his name on the map.
Clark is being hailed by the media after his “fantastic” Liverpool performance. Clark is praised by Ian Doyle of the Liverpool Echo and the Anfield reporter rated the 18-year-old 9/10, with the youngster’s “outstanding” performance catching the reporter’s attention. Hailed as a “real talent”, many Liverpool insiders are confident that Clark will reach his exciting potential as Jurgen Klopp’s youngster this pre-season. And performances like tonight against Morecambe will be key for Clark in the senior team, with UEFA Europa League football a realistic route for the versatile midfielder. Klopp must consider Clark for European matches. Clark is easily one of Liverpool’s most exciting talents and Klopp should start considering the youngster as an option in Europe this season. The Reds are expected to make light work of the Europa League group stages, and the kind of competitive minutes Clark gets could have a huge impact on the midfielder’s development. Furthermore, the teenager could flourish at a senior age as Clark turned EFL side Morecambe around with relative ease last night.
