Klopp hails "big talent" Jordon Ibe

Jurgen Klopp has labelled Jordon Ibe as a "big talent" after the youngster netted his first goal for Liverpool in their 1-0 win away at Rubin Kazan in the Europa League.

The 19-year-old scored the only goal of the game to hand the Reds their first win in the group stages this season.

Ibe also completed 11 dribbles in Russia as he impressed Klopp in just his second start under the new boss.

"Jordon is a really good lad," Klopp told the Liverpool Echo after the final whistle. "He's a skilful player and a big talent – fast, strong, good at dribbling.

"He has to learn so much but has a real good base. He feels good in this moment. You could see it in this match.

"Like everyone he has a long way to go. If he's prepared to listen then he will be very good."

Liverpool's victory against Rubin Kazan stretches their winning run to three games in all competitions.
