(Video) Brad Smith’s highlights v FC Sion show he’s now a realistic Moreno backup option

Posted by

There wasn’t too much to speak about last night other than the fact we qualified top of the group, but young Australian Brad Smith’s outing down the left was actually very promising.

The 21-year-old was defensively astute and keen to provide an overlapping option down the flank as well, as these highlights show.

Smith was nearly cast aside in the summer, and was officially out of contract since June – but he’s now renewed his deal and has been brought back in from the wilderness by Jurgen Klopp.

Fans assumed that Jose Enrique would be Alberto Moreno’s backup option when he finally finds fitness, but based on last night, Smith has overtaken him.
