Liverpool Midfielder Harvey Elliott Strives for More Goals and Assists
Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott has expressed his determination to become a consistent goal scorer and assist provider for the team. Despite his impressive performance in the recent 5-1 Carabao Cup victory against West Ham, Elliott was not among the goal scorers. Curtis Jones, Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo, and Mohamed Salah were the players who found the back of the net.
Elliott, who has started in only nine out of 23 appearances this season, had previously stated that he did not want to be known as a super-sub. However, after a less productive evening against West Ham, he acknowledged his disappointment and vowed to improve. He emphasized that his primary responsibility is to score and create opportunities for his team.
The 20-year-old midfielder, known for his self-critical nature, admitted that he was brought up in an environment where his family, especially his father, always scrutinized his performances. While he does not beat himself up over it, he believes in reflecting on his shortcomings and using them as motivation to become a better player.
Liverpool’s focus now shifts to the Premier League as they prepare to face Arsenal this weekend. Despite Elliott’s impressive display, he is likely to start from the bench with Mohamed Salah returning to the lineup. The young midfielder acknowledged the depth and quality of Liverpool’s squad, emphasizing the need to take each game as it comes and remain focused on the task at hand.
Regarding the title race, Elliott believes that it is still too early to determine its outcome. With many games remaining in the season, he emphasized the importance of staying focused and approaching each match with the intention of securing three points. Liverpool is determined to win the Premier League and will settle for nothing less.
By setting high standards for himself and constantly striving for improvement, Harvey Elliott aims to become a key contributor in Liverpool’s pursuit of success.
