Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has given Stefan Bajcetic his seal of approval after a dominant display against Everton on Monday night. The midfielder ran the show in the Reds’ 2-0 win over their local rivals in a confidence-boosting performance.
Jurgen Klopp’s side have struggled markedly this season but their display at Anfield proved that they still possess the talent to push up the table. Their victory against the Toffees sees them move into ninth in the Premier League, nine points outside of the top four.
Liverpool’s midfield has been their main problem so far this campaign, with their first-choice options now injury-prone and not getting any younger. But Klopp appears to have identified his saviour amongst his youth ranks, with Bajcetic being handed his third start of the season against Everton – and he took the opportunity with both hands.
The 18-year-old was handed the Player of the Match award and received high praise from his teammates. Gerrard also lauded the Spanish prospect, commenting a fire emoji and clapping emoji underneath an Instagram post from Liverpool’s official account labelling Bajcetic as ‘brilliant’.
