Jamie Carragher picks three Liverpool youngsters ready to break into first team

Jamie Carragher believes Harvey Elliott, Neco Williams and Curtis Jones are all ready to make the step up to Liverpool's first team. Jurgen Klopp has given academy talent several opportunities and some of their young talent have given a reason for thought. Jones scored the winner in a Merseyside derby while Elliott moved from Fulham last summer after becoming the youngest ever top-flight player. Williams has appeared in successive Premier League games. "It’s still maybe a bit early for some of them who are really young," he told Sky Sports. "But you think of Harvey Elliott, who is only 17. Neco Williams and Curtis Jones as well. They’ll probably be squad players. We talk about managers giving young players a chance, but we also say clubs need to invest. "It’s very hard for clubs to get that balance right but Jurgen Klopp has done that superbly this season. He’s given the youngsters plenty of opportunities in cup competitions and they haven’t let him down." Source: The Mirror
