LIVERPOOL FC: ONE TO WATCH: STEVIE G'S CHOICE

We've asked five men in the know for a player to watch for 2008-09, with their selections featuring on Liverpoolfc.tv all this week. Today, club captain Steven Gerrard becomes the latest onlooker to wax lyrical about

/noticias.info/ Player profile: Hungarian prodigy Krisztian Nemeth is the most talked about player in Liverpool's reserve ranks.

The 19-year-old striker arrived from MTK Hungaria alongside compatriot Andras Simon in the summer of 2007 having impressed in the previous year's UEFA Under-17 Championships.

After signing a three-year deal, he quickly set about finding the back of the net, bagging a brace on his second-string debut against Man City.

If this had Kopites purring, a double in the mini-derby a week later really got the terraces buzzing.

Nemeth went on to score his 9th of the league campaign as the reserves clinched the national title at Anfield against Aston Villa in May 2008.

Later that month, after netting the crucial goal against Portugal to take Hungary U19s to the European Championships, he received his first senior international call up.

With lethal finishing, great movement and a fine touch, big things are expected of Nemeth, who has yet to make his first-team bow for Liverpool.

Steven Gerrard says: "Krisztian looks really lively and sharp up front, and he's scoring all the goals for the reserves.

"It's difficult to put a time on when he's going to get into the first team because he's still young, he's still learning. But he's got a lot of ability and a bright future.

"I'm sure Rafa will have an idea of when he's going to be ready but he's already joined in with the first team in training and he's always held his own.

"There are quite a few players I could have chosen. Jay Spearing is a fantastic player. He's only a small guy but ability-wise he's certainly got it in abundance." notas_de_prensa_archivo
