Curtis Jones was the star of the show in Liverpool's 5-1 victory against West Ham on Wednesday, and Harry Redknapp believes that the midfielder should keep his spot in the starting XI for this weekend's fixture against Arsenal. Jones scored twice in the second half and showed his potential in a midfield role.
According to Redknapp, Jones is worthy of keeping his place in the team, and could even walk into almost any team in the Premier League. He said on Sky Sports: "He could go and walk into almost any team in the Premier League and play there but he obviously wants to stay and win his place at Liverpool."
Redknapp believes that Jones has made it difficult for Klopp to leave him out, and that the selection problem for Saturday presents a great opportunity for the young midfielder. He added: "It looks like a matter of time before he gets that regular berth in the team. He looks too good not to play. Curtis Jones, does he play Saturday? One or two of them tonight have made it difficult for him to leave them out. No injuries, perfect night, five goals. Absolutely slaughtered West Ham tonight."
It will be interesting to see if Klopp gives Jones a chance to prove himself against table-topping Arsenal this weekend. Whatever the decision, it's clear that Jones has a bright future ahead of him and could become a regular player in the Premier League in no time.
