'There are crazy players at Liverpool': Dominic Solanke philosophical over lack of chances at club level as he continues to shine for England U21s

Liverpool forward Dominic Solanke insists his Anfield frustration cannot compare to his time at Chelsea.

The 20-year-old scored a late winner in England Under-21s' 2-1 Euro 2019 qualifying victory over Ukraine on Tuesday.

All of Solanke's three goals this season have come for the Young Lions as he is kept on the bench at Anfield by 36-goal Mo Salah and Roberto Firmino.

He has made just three Premier League starts since joining from Chelsea last summer in search of more game time but it is an improvement on the 17 minutes he managed for the Blues.
