‘Having a party out there’: BBC pundit utterly stunned by ‘unstoppable’ Liverpool player today
Liverpool talent Harvey Elliott has been described as “unstoppable” by Pat Nevin for his display in the Reds’ hammering of Bournemouth on Saturday.
Jurgen Klopp’s charges went into the game desperate for a result after a tough start to the Premier League season.
Liverpool drew their opening matches, against Fulham and Crystal Palace, before losing at Manchester United.
Meanwhile, the Cherries were facing their third top-six opponent in a row in the league.
Bournemouth had been left reeling by a 4-0 loss at Manchester City and a 3-0 defeat to Arsenal.
And Liverpool, themselves reeling from their poor start, wasted no time in bouncing back on Saturday.
Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliott had the Reds 2-0 up after just six minutes.
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Roberto Firmino then added one apiece either side of the half-hour mark.
And deep into first-half injury time, Virgil van Dijk made it five with a powerful header from a corner.
The second half saw more of the same, with Chris Mepham scoring an own goal shortly after the restart.
Firmino made it seven just after the hour mark and substitute Fabio Carvalho added an eighth 10 minutes from time,
Then, Diaz made it nine in the 84th minute of the match at Anfield.
“What a game he’s having”
Elliott was a constant thorn in Bournemouth’s side and deserved his first Premier League goal.
The 19-year-old unleashed a powerful drive from just outside the box into the far corner of the net.
And BBC Sport pundit Pat Nevin loved what he saw from the Reds prodigy, who made way for Carvalho at half-time.
“Harvey Elliott is having a party out there,” Nevin said on (27/8, 15:23).
“Nobody is picking him up, but his touch has been fantastic. What a game he’s having.”
At half time, Nevin added (27/8, 15:55): “Liverpool are a joy to watch when they play like this. They could easily get another four or five.
“Lots of great performances. Salah has been brilliant from the first minute, but Harvey Elliott has been unstoppable alongside him and Trent Alexander-Arnold.”
