A section of the Liverpool fanbase have a rather ambivalent relationship with international football.
Of course, supporters can be offended and defensive on the behalf of Liverpool players, too, should they be overlooked. It did not go unnoticed that Manchester United’s Kobbie Mainoo was promoted swiftly from England's under-21s to the senior squad when handed his maiden call-ups in the March international break for example, while Harvey Elliott remains overlooked by Gareth Southgate.
So on a night when all eyes were on Wembley as Mainoo made his full England debut against Belgium, Elliott was instead running the show against Luxembourg at Bolton Wanderers’ Toughsheet Community Stadium in the Under-21s’ latest 2025 European Championships qualifier. He is younger than Jarell Quansah for example, and only three months older than Conor Bradley as his two team-mates continue to enjoy remarkable breakthrough seasons at Anfield. What would be made of Elliott’s own showings if his senior career wasn’t already into its sixth campaign?
Having scored a brace in Friday’s 5-1 win over Azerbaijan, he added two glorious assists to his name in the 7-0 thrashing of Luxembourg, too, all while being kicked black and blue by opposing defenders, winning free-kicks after being left on the floor in a heap on more than one occasion.
