'Curtis is 19 — until he enters the pitch': Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp lauds impact of midfield prospect Curtis Jones

Jurgen Klopp has predicted a big future for Curtis Jones and says the midfielder has a talent that belies his age.

Jones is only 19 but he has made giant strides this year, starting with a superb goal to knock Everton out of the FA Cup and ending with him being touted as a candidate for England's squad for next summer's European Championship.

There is no disguising Klopp's excitement around Jones's development and the manner of his mature performance in the 2-1 win against Tottenham on Wednesday did not reflect the fact he is one of the least experienced members of the squad.
