Liverpool: Stefan Bajcetic has been a beacon of positivity in a what has been a tough season

Stefan Bajcetic is a calm young man with an unflappable playing style but, all of a sudden, he seems flustered and coy.

The Spanish midfielder has been a beacon of positivity for Liverpool this season, his performances illuminated with tenacity and class. Soon we will discuss his path to Merseyside, how he almost joined Manchester United and how he received a lesson from Luka Modric.

First, though, the 18-year-old is taken back to Villa Park on Boxing Night.

Bajcetic had just scored his first Premier League goal in a 3-1 win, leaving Jurgen Klopp ecstatic; when he returned to the dressing room, the rest of Liverpool's squad were waiting to give him a standing ovation.
