Liverpool have a gem on their hands in Doak
Doak’s talents have been know for quite some time, yet it still amazes fans and pundits alike when the winger is allowed to do what he does best in a professional setting.
And for Liverpool, they need to ensure that they don’t allow a youngster as good as Doak to go astray, with the winger good enough to become a starter for the Reds in the years to come.
This season will be massive for the attacker, and if Liverpool can give Doak minutes, they must do so at every possible opportunity.
