agreed, it'll comeI like Elliot. But we need to work on his end product. Be that either goals or assists
Absolutely this.
A future progressive midfield for us looks like Badger-Tits, Carvalho & Harvey.
It’s not going to work please those that want to see more powerful, physical players in there.
He's a trier and has a great attitude, but ultimately I don't think the kid will be good enough. Not as a regular starter anyway.
Superstar and flop aren't the only two possible outcomes. There are plenty of stages in between. I reckon the lad is LFC first team standard and will demonstrate that increasingly as time goes on.
What's the end goal?
You're missing Bellingham ... for Trent.A Schweinsteiger-like #8. He will not put up huge goal-scoring numbers as a winger/AM, but his decision-making and short passing game is world-class. And he works hard on the defensive end; just needs to bulk up.
Potential future LFC midfield:
—-Elliott/Caicedo—Trent—- (or inverted)
————-—-Bajcetic———
Might sound harsh and a lot of people won't like it but I'm more leaning towards this than him becoming a superstar for us unless we see a drastic change 2nd half of the season....that needs to start with him being more adventurous and taking a lot more risks.

Not really true that though is it? I mean just look in recent years with the other British lads alone.He's 19 FFS. Most 19 yr olds aren't even close to the first team.
Well done you listed 7. Now list the other 500 that didn't make the team until 20-22. Exceptions don't set the rule.Not really true that though is it? I mean just look in recent years with the other British lads alone.
Jude was a regular at 16/17.
Foden was a regular at 18
Sterling was a regular for us at 17.
Trent at 18.
Rice a regular at 18.
Sancho at 17/18.
Rashford at 17.
Your teenage years are arguably the most valuable as it will usually tell how good you can be from those years.
True, we still could sign Jobe Bellingham.

You won’t be wasting your time as you won’t find too many more geniuses. Go ahead.Listed 7 as an example......
Obviously not going to waste my time naming more on either side of the spectrum but to say most don't get in the first team squad at 19 is baseless.
& since you're the 1 that made the false argument, it's only fair you list them?

Lol. So you think professional footballers just hang about at reserve level until they're in their 20s?
Just look at any young player today and look back when they first made the cut.
Moukoko 15
Pedri 16
Gavi 17
Ferran Torres 17
Leao 18
J.David 18
Vini Jr 18
Rodrygo 18
Nkunku 18
Werner 17
There's another 10 for you off the top my head.
This is idiotic. Elliott started last season as a regular, the only thing that disrupted that was injury, or he'd have been a regular at 18. You're chatting bollocks.
That's making debut though? Jack Robinson made his debut at 16 and where the fucks he? Jordan rossiter still patrolling our midfield?
Harvey's work rate, combined with his ability and intelligence means he'll make it. Hell, he's already a season behind on his development due to the injury last year. The lads scary potential
