The 18-year-old was named Man of the Match as the Reds beat MK Dons 2-0 in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday
James Milner could have been forgiven for feeling his age as he lined up for Liverpool’s Carabao Cup clash with MK Dons on Wednesday.
Skipper for the night, the veteran led a Reds side which showed 11 changes from their Premier League win at Chelsea last Sunday.
And while there was enough experience in the ranks – Milner was joined by the likes of Dejan Lovren, Adam Lallana and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, among others – it was the presence of a raft of youngsters which provided the game’s main talking point.
