Curtis Jones has become a key player for Jurgen Klopp this season.

The 20-year old garnered 34 appearances last season and is now a crucial member of the Liverpool squad.

He has been involved in two goals from his last two Premier League games for Liverpool.

Jones suggests that he has become more matured and disciplined now.

Jones told Liverpool Echo: “I’m definitely more disciplined. I just don’t go mad and run off with the ball and try to shoot and score now.

“I’m playing at 8 or 10 and the aim of that is for me to get into the box, be more like a box-to-box type of midfielder.

“Playing as a 6 at Norwich was new to me, but I handled it well I think. I played there at U17s level so I kind of knew what I was doing!

“It was more about being disciplined, being smarter and knowing that if I was going to make a run into the box I needed to speak with Ox or Naby to say ‘Stay here, cover in’ or else there would be a huge gap in the middle of the pitch.

“The gaffer and staff know that as soon as I’m called upon – whether it’s at right-back, midfield, anywhere – I’ll go out there with a smile on my face and be exactly the same kid that I am. I enjoy it and I give 100%.”
