Emmerson Sutton

According to reports he’s been right on the outer edges of making the first team bench recently.

The standout features of his game despite being selected out wide have been his composure when presented with goal scoring opportunities.

The last goal which completed his hat trick in yesterdays DS match certainly showed he’s more than capable to step up and replace injured Smyth’s place in the first team squad.

He's been featuring in dispatches for at least 2 years. Thing is, only time I saw him was in that Carabao Cup fiasco at Plymouth last season where he looked like a junior school kid who'd wandered into a man's game.
Maybe he's filled out a bit and I'm not in any way writing him off, but 12 months ago he looked well off the pace against gnarly 3rd tier opposition. He'll be 20 soon so something needs to click this season or next.

Sutton was only given 45mins in that Plymouth Cup game so very difficult to judge him fairly amongst at least 8 other DS team members against seasoned players that Plymouth put out.

Jurgen Klopp said “ some players take longer to mature , here at Liverpool we have a cut of point set a 24 years old”

I watched Sutton also score another hatrick 2 years ago during an U18 Cup game against Arsenal which went to a penalty shoot out as the match finished 3-3 after extra time.

My point is Sutton is very composed in goalscoring areas which is in complete contrast to the currently injured Paul Smyth.
