Gerrard: Shelvey Is The Next Big Thing

Steven Gerrard feels England
youth star Jonjo Shelvey has a
big career ahead of him at
Liverpool.
Shelvey arrived at Anfield in the
summer from Charlton, but he
has been limited to just one
appearance in the League Cup
since moving.
But Reds skipper Gerrard thinks
he showed enough in the defeat
against Northampton, to show
he has huge potential.
"When Jonjo came on against
Northampton I thought he did
really well," Gerrard said on the
club's official website.
"He put some dangerous balls
into their box and just that piece
of action will have done him the
world of good as he moves
forward.
"It'll give him the confidence to
try and shift people from the first
eleven.
"He is a talented player. He's still
young and still a baby in football
terms but if he keeps learning -
not just from me but from
everyone in the squad, people
who are older than him and have
been there and done it before -
his game will continue to get
better and better."
