      Curtis certainly worth an extended run, in the starting line up, the way he has improved lately !

      He has had 2 tame shots on goal, in his last 2 games, after doing amazing work just to get into shooting positions. Can see him curling one in the top right hand corner against Palace. 3rd times a charm!

      hes our own Phil Foden and Billy Gilmour

      Will end up better and have a more influential career than both.

      Fantastic young footballer.

      Jones reminds me of Ross Barkley when he broke in with Everton, good technical player on the ball and can get around the field. My hope for Jones unlike Barkley he just really never took the next step in becoming a top end talent, he just plateaued as a decent Premiership quality player.

      Give it to Jones he taken his opportunity and run with it, hopefully it will continue because we will need it for the title race

      Same here, has the similar ability of dancing past defenders like in Gerrard's early days

      I' add R. Williams to that list as well. All proof that you shouldn't just go buying depth players for the sake of numbers and instead have a path where the youngsters can break into the team.

      This kid's a gem. Some of his touches and passes were just nuts. It's all on a plate for him.....if he works his butt off, he'll have it all.

      I thought Barclay looked a terrific prospect when he was coming through, very skilful but also had a mans physique when he was only 16. Problem with Barclay is he is lazy, He has never really applied himself to the defensive side of the game which makes him a luxury player. Jones won’t play much if he doesn’t and already you can see he works hard in the press plus he marks, tracks and tackles. He’s going to be a gem of a player

      I try not to get emotional on stuff like this, but I think you may wanna look at playing Jones over Gini when Thiago comes back. Jones has been playing great this season and will only get better with more opportunities. Gini hasn't signed a contract yet so we can't allow him to hold us up on two fronts. Gini can come off the bench and provide energy in the end of games and see them out

      He might have to wait in line a while, behind Trent mate.

      I actually think Jones would fit the mold better as captain. With Stevie and Hendo we’ve had very vocal captains for a long time while Trent seems the more quiet type. Curtis strikes me more as someone who’d be the same type of fiery leader.

      That said, i would still expect Trent to be the one, not just because of the CL game but also from Jürgen’s comments.

      Interesting perspective. I always saw Gerrard as naturally quiet (shy even) and I think, certainly at the start of his captaincy, he led more by example. Became more vocal as he got older but I always think he led through his actions.

      I think Jordan is a naturally quiet guy as well - just goes to show that some of the best leaders are the unassuming types!

      I reckon Trent would go off his nut if Curtis got the Armband before him!
