Jamie Carragher has joined the Jayden Danns love-in after the Liverpool teenager scored twice from the bench
Klopp continued the bedding in of academy players once more against Saints
The trust in the Kirkby kids paid off again as the Reds ran out 3-0 winners over high-flying Southampton
Danns, who had never played for the senior side 10 days ago, epitomised that.
He clinched the game after coming on after an hour, scoring a brace in front of the Kop. Koumas himself had given the home side the lead before half-time
It was Danns that truly captured the imagination though. He raced onto Harvey Elliot's weighted pass and calmly chipped the ball into the net over the onrushing goalkeeper to open his account for the club
Running off to celebrate in style, Danns was flogged by his teammates after knee-sliding into the corner
He then grabbed a second, tapping in the rebound to Bradley's placed shot. In disbelief, he sprinted off in the other direction
Understandably he has been the centre of attention after the game, and Carragher has become just one of those making his praise loud and clear.
Carragher
"Two goals, MOM, great post match interview & all that at just 18! "
Before Wednesday, Danns had only played five times for Liverpool's Under-21 side, and wasn't even yet a regular in Premier League 2.
