'Suso Is A Joy To Watch'

John McMahon hailed the performance of teenage forward Suso after the Spaniard’s eye-catching display during the 2-0 win over Tranmere Rovers at Prenton Park on Tuesday night.

Both goals came in the second half with David Amoo in the thick of the action. Firstly his tantalising cross from the left saw Rovers David McNamara turn the ball into his own net, then he finished off a brilliant move to make it 2-0.

However, it was the performance of Suso that everyone was talking about come the end of 90 minutes.

"Suso is a class act, there's no doubt about it," McMahon told Liverpoolfc.tv.

"He is a very clever player in the mould of Dani Pacheco and he is very exciting to watch.

"We need to give him the ball and get him in the game because he can score goals as well as create them. He's a joy to watch.

"Overall I was pleased with our second half performance. We were very lethargic in the first half but I asked them to up their game which they did in the second half.

"It was nice for David to score and he did well. It's been difficult for the likes of Amoo, Daniel Ayala, Tom Ince and Steven Irwin who have been with the first team during pre-season to come back to the reserve team but they have shown a good attitude."

The reserves now head off to Ireland this weekend for a two game tour, starting with a game at Galway United on Monday night.

"It's nice to take the lads away and we are looking forward to it," he added.

"We will play two difficult games and it's always good to take the lads to a new environment."
