It’s difficult to find a description for Leighton Clarkson’s latest goal better fitting than ‘Gerrard-esque’.
The Liverpool loanee, currently plying his trade with Aberdeen (with whom he’s already enjoyed a number of ridiculous long-range goals) caught an effort following a corner with a first-time volley the ‘keeper had no chance of getting a hand to.
Though only a friendly with Atlanta, it’s great to see the 21-year-old enjoying his football and gaining some valuable experience away from Anfield.

You have a heck of a player here, he has a semi final against rangers to look forward to surely this is the reason you loan players out and will come back a much more experienced player
