Klopp admits Elliott hasn't played enough for Liverpool this season — Harvey reacts

Harvey Elliott hit a stunning goal today against Spurs as the Reds won 4-2. He also put a beautiful cross for Cody Gakpo to score.

The midfielder was one of the best, if not the best player on the pitch today — on a rare occasion of him starting a Premier League game for Liverpool.

"I'm not sure," Jurgen Klopp told MOTD when asked if the Englishman played enough minutes this season.

"That's up to me, it's a little bit of moments like this and he was outstanding, outstanding and he has to be as dominant as he was today. Fantastic player, what a goal. I love it. All good."

"I will watch that definitely and enjoy it," he added when asked if he would enjoy watching Harvey after the manager leaves the club in the summer.

Elliott has been primarily used as an impact sub in the Premier League, making only nine starts including the Spurs game. The 21-year-old has featured 23 times off the bench in the competition.

"I'm not really one to do that really," the midfielder said when asked if he plans to speak to Klopp about his lack of playing time.

"It is my dream to go out and play football, especially in a Liverpool shirt. The games I don't start, I'm upset and annoyed but I'm here for the team to make sure that when I come on, I make the impact and if I start, I make the impact.

"Maybe we can have that conversation towards the end but as I said, I'm just honoured and I'm just very grateful for all opportunities he has given me."
