Boy wonder Bajcetic getting all the praise in the wake of his stellar Merseyside Derby bow

A boy who steps out on the big stage, shows no fear, thrives under pressure and earns the praise from his bosses and peers – isn’t that fantastic to see? Liverpool midfielder Stefan Bajcetic seems to be getting better with every passing game and shows no signs of stopping.After he starred for the Reds in their Merseyside Derby win on Monday night, Bajcetic got a lot of deserved praise from his coach Jurgen Klopp and match-winner Mohamed Salah.Despite going through a rough patch of the season, Klopp gave his confidence to the Serbian-Spanish youngster and was rewarded instantly.”We are really happy with Stefan. He’s a top boy, really smart and calm. He played in a new position, at eight, and I asked him afterwards if he liked it and he said yes. It is a nice story.”##NAJAVA_MECA_7027157##According to the Egyptian striker, Bajcetic is the Reds’ best player at the moment. That’s some high praise indeed!”He’s a great player and person, he always tries to work hard. Since he started playing for us, he has been our best player maybe so hopefully, he keeps that confidence and keeps going.”Much has been made about Liverpool’s midfield struggles but the 18-year-old continues to impress and offers hope going forward. A major rebuild has been called for but the Spanish U19 international could perhaps offer an internal solution, potentially saving the club millions in the next transfer window. That’s what you get when you trust the kids.Stefan Bajcetic vs Everton (🎥 @ALREDS1892 ) pic.twitter.com/TLPENcDIE4— Stefan Bajcetic Xtra (@SBMXtra) February 14, 2023 The man of the moment was beaming with pride after getting the 2-0 win over Everton. He admitted that playing in a slightly altered position was daunting at first – but he quickly found his feet.”To be fair, I played in a different position, I thought it would be less comfortable but it was good and I enjoyed it a lot. Mo Salah is probably one of the best players ever in Liverpool’s history so it is nice to hear a legend say that to me. I won more confidence playing at Anfield for a couple of games so I always love a tackle so I combine both and that is good. It was a great game, with the crowd and the derby. Hopefully, we keep playing well and win more games.”
