Liverpool U21s coach Barry Lewtas has applauded Mateusz Musialowski’s development this term.
The Englishman pointed to the 19-year-old’s improved consistency on the pitch and efforts made to contribute defensively to a greater effect.
“He’s been brilliant. This season, in terms of his level of consistency, without question it has risen,” the 42-year-old was quoted as saying in the aftermath of the 5-2 loss to Blackpool, as relayed by the Echo.
“He’s taking more responsibility for his all-round game and he commits to every phase of the game now.
“Defensively he’s strong and buying in. No-one can doubt his ability to dribble the ball, he can dribble past most, but he is finding a real consistency in his game.”
The Pole has been in terrific form as far as goal contributions are also concerned, amassing six goal contributions in seven games – with two of those coming against Blackpool.

There’s still time for Musialowski
Time may be running out on Musialowski’s contract (set to expire next summer), though his performances since the start of the season will surely inspire a rethink on his future from Anfield’s decision-makers.
At 19 years of age too, it’s not quite like we’re talking about a player in their 20s who really ought to have kicked on by this point if they’re to have had any hope of breaking into Jurgen Klopp’s first-team plans.
Having been lauded as a promising talent for years, to such an extent that he was dubbed the ‘Polish Messi’, we’d love nothing more than to witness yet another exciting Academy prospect graduate.
