Liverpool Football Club have a number of young talents who are well worth keeping a close eye on it seems.
Luke Chambers, for one, is certainly within that category of footballer, posting a remarkable debut with League One side Wigan Athletic following his loan move.
Stats recorded by @CentralWigan on X show the teenager made an instant impact against Northampton Town, posting some rather impressive defensive numbers.

How many fullbacks?
It’s quite something how unfortunate we’ve been this term regarding the health and fitness of our fullbacks.
All three of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kostas Tsimikas and Andy Robertson have been sidelined of late, forcing a combination of youngsters and Joe Gomez to step up in their place.
To be fair to our former Charlton Athletic prospect and, most recently, Conor Bradley at right-back, they’ve both been absolutely exceptional when called upon.
If Chambers can replicate the levels shown on his debut across the rest of his loan, he may very well be one to watch come pre-season!
