‘Ejaria is a dab away from costing £89m’ and more comments on Ovie’s slick first-half

How good is this kid…?!

Ovie Ejaria started for Liverpool tonight against Leeds in the EFL Cup and after 27 minutes, he’s already one of the biggest Twitter trends in the country.

So much so, we’re writing an article on it – because the reaction has been huge!

Not only does he ooze confidence, but he’s physically imposing and possesses a fantastic passing range. Early on, he slipped Gini Wijnaldum through perfectly and has played a succession of slick balls into his attackers since.

What’s great about Ejaria is that he can beat a player on either side in the middle as he isn’t afraid to use his weaker left foot. He has the ability to pass and move into space immediately so he always provides his team-mates an option – just what Jurgen Klopp demands of a ‘brave’ footballer.

At 19, the world is at Ejaria’s feet. Let’s hope he can continue impressing when given an opportunity, because this guy is a future first-teamer.
