How Harvey Elliott Performed for England U21s vs Czech Republic
Harvey Elliott’s potential departure from Liverpool this summer has split the fanbase. While some appreciate his versatility and contribution—15 goals and 20 assists in 147 appearances by age 22—others feel Liverpool must continue evolving the squad, similar to Manchester City’s approach. With a strong midfield including Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, and Gravenberch (last season’s Young Player of the Year), plus Curtis Jones and new arrival Florian Wirtz, Elliott’s opportunities may become limited.
However, Elliott’s standout performance in England U21’s 3-1 victory over Czech Republic has reignited support for him. Many fans are reconsidering whether selling him is the right move. Playing on the right wing, a position he adapted to during Klopp’s final season, Elliott showcased confidence and control. He completed 90% of his passes, scored a goal, and made two key passes in his 63 touches during the full 90 minutes.
The highlights of his game, marked by high energy, pressing, and creative play, drew praise from fans on social media—many now advocating for him to stay as squad depth or even right-wing cover.
