Jayden Danns has now scored more goals than £82m Premier League player this season | OneFootball

Keep an eye out for Jayden Danns – he looks a talent who’s potentially going places in senior football.

The 18-year-old forward was lethal in his 27-minute cameo for Jurgen Klopp’s men, registering two goals against Championship outfit Southampton in the second-half.

Remarkably, it’s taken the teenager’s goals tally (2) higher than Manchester United’s £82m wide man Antony (1) across all goal competitions, as one X user noted, despite only playing 61 minutes’ worth of senior football.

Look at the level of performance from Liverpool’s young stars and ask yourself the question: could Erik ten Hag’s men do the same?

The answer should be a resounding no.

In fairness, the Red Devils’ crop of youngsters – specifically the likes of Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund – do look to possess an intriguing degree of potential.

The fact players like Antony still aren’t really delivering – despite having played over 1,300 minutes of football this term – has to be a major concern.

Just goes to show how impressive Danns’ latest showing for the Reds is.
