Harvey Elliott admits he has been left amazed by Luis Diaz's impact after returning from a long-term knee injury - and hopes the Colombian can enjoy a strong end to the Premier League season in preparation for next term.
On Sunday, the 26-year-old forward marked his first Premier League start since October 9 by scoring in Liverpool's pulsating 4-3 victory over Tottenham Hotspur as he emphatically finished Cody Gakpo's cut-back to double the Reds' early lead.
That particular landmark came more than six months after he sustained the serious knee injury in the 3-2 defeat at the Emirates. Diaz had initially returned to first-team training during the mid-season training camp in Dubai but after just one session the Colombian suffered a serious setback and therefore required surgery which would rule him out for a further five months.
