Topic: Curtis Jones

[Gods_Left_Boot]

Maybe not as brilliant as his last performances, but still very solid. Probably could use a bit of a rest against Fulham, he's played a lot of football in the last 3/4 weeks.

That bit of skill to do Ben White... absolute filth

[kop306]

another top performance from curtis

Hard to rest him at the minute with other absences, he's really important. Maybe another 60.

[DiggerJohn]

Curtis is really impressing me. I didnt know he was this good.

Imagine if it was Saka who had done that Shearer would have combusted.

[Bobsackamano]

He's now going up a level with each run of games he gets, keep him in as much as possible until Endo gets back and maybe then rotate.

[Theoldkopite]

Love that.

A local song from a local band, about a local lad playing for his local team. Gets my vote.

I’ll go with that one. Just give us a couple of weeks to learn the words

Thanks for sharing. You can see from the swagger that he is believing in himself now and coming of age.

[DiggerJohn]

How the fuck is that one not a yellow. But Jonesy owned him

[So… Howard Philips]

He’s starting to achieve his potential but I’m sure there’s more to come.

No doubt.

[Knight]

sorry, Knight - I'm not sure if we're agreeing or at cross-purposes

I want Southgate to stay the hell away from all our players.  I get that it's important for the players, and I love 'em to death - but I'm 100% selfish on this.

I don't want to get to the end of a season thinking we missed out on silverware because we had too many players out injured due to overload "but at least Trent, Curtis, Joe etc got England caps" (in games I don't give a shit about)."

I agree it's probably better for us but I also have affection for our players, especially the likes of Jones, so would want it for him!

Give him a rest midweek, play Grav instead.

[Yorkykopite]

He has that Gini ability to keep the ball, and work it too, in stupidly confined spaces. But he has the edge on Gini in flair. Such a valuable player for Klopp.

[Clint Eastwood]

He’s turning in to a bit of a monster, isn’t he? Still only 22.

Aye, he (White) didn't like it

[bradders1011]

My non-Red mates reckon he's shite and won't get anywhere near the England squad.

I do hope so.

[Lochgelly Violet]

Do they rate any liverpool player. My non red friends don't seem to rate any of them

[jckliew]

Jones has very good close control of the ball on the run too. He is becoming undroppable player.

[Kalito]

Sky's the limit for this lad. Boss player.

[GinKop]

This lad is an absolute BALLER.

The fact he's a Scouser too also makes it even better.

[wige]

He's our best and most important midfielder imo.

[Knight]

He's our best and most important midfielder imo.

Dunno about the 1st part, Szoboslai and Mac are real players. I reckon the 2nd past is 100% true mind. He offers defensive work and ball retention skills on another level to anyone else and as a result knits the whole midfield and team together when he's on it.

[SamLad]

he's almost impossible to get the ball off at this point. his close skills under pressure are amazing and is hugely important to allow his mates to get sorted when we've been under pressure or are prepping for another attack.

what he did to White was absolutely wonderful, in more ways than one. 

[smutchin]

Curtis is really impressing me. I didnt know he was this good.

He's definitely stepped up a level this season. He was always a talent but he no longer looks like an academy player trying to get by on raw ability alone. He's added tactical nous to couple with those natural ball skills, and is physically stronger as well.

Mad that he's still only 22. Several years off his peak. He will be immense for us in the long run.

A family member of his told me ages ago that one of his nicknames amongst the other players was The Iron Curtain because he was so strong physically and tough to get past in training. I didn't think anything of it at the time as I couldn't see it on the pitch but watching those Arsenal players bounce off him I now see where it comes from.

great nickname

[slaphead]

He has a brilliant touch. One of them players you can really fizz the ball to and he kills it. Really impressed me lately

[Knight]

98% pass accuracy? What is this wizardry.

[stockdam]

Got better and better as the game went on.

[DelTrotter]

That last 10 was terrifying, him getting a knock and Joe and Darwin getting assaulted, fucking hell. Was just an impact knock, hopefully everyone is ok. One of the best midfielders around right now.

[Clint Eastwood]

What a player.

[L.Suarez]

Best midfielder in the country right now, prove me wrong.

[Jean Girard]

Best player on the pitch for me. Him and Jota really took that game by the scruff in the 10 minutes before we broke through finally. Excellent.

[SerbianScouser]

Didn't want him to take that shot with his left, so glad he did anyway. Really happy he's scoring regularly now, that's how you cement your place in this team.

[Andar]

Southgate would be bonkers not to start him in the Euros. Him and Bellingham as the advanced centre mids would be quite a combination.
