Jones, Elliott, Neco Williams and Pedro Chirivella have all been called upon by Jurgen Klopp in recent weeks.

The performance of Jones was really eyecatching. He has stood out in recent weeks, most notably for his stunning winner against Everton in the FA Cup.

He was at it again last night with another wonderful strike and fans couldn’t get enough of him on Twitter.

The midfielder looks set for a really bright future in the game. He came on as a substitute against Bournemouth in the Premier League last month and has been used in the cup games.
