Liverpool have sent many members of our youth squad out on loan for the upcoming season and James Balagizi has produced another impressive performance for his new club.
The 18-year-old has made seven appearances so far for Crawley Town and followed up a recent brace against Northampton Town, with his third goal of the loan spell against Fulham.
After helping the League Two outfit win the ball back high up the pitch, a few passes later saw the midfielder handed a chance to put the ball past the ‘keeper and he duly obliged.
It was a great coup to knock out a Premier League team and long may this form continue.

Let’s hope that the Manchester-born teen can continue to show why the club handed him a new contract this summer and we may even meet him in the cup this season.
