Liverpool youngster Leighton Clarkson has been sent a message following another impressive performance on loan at Aberdeen.
The 20-year-old is spending the season with the Scottish Premiership outfit and has already started life well. On Saturday, he scored a sublime long-range free-kick as Aberdeen won 1-0 against St Johnstone.
This was Clarkson’s second goal since completing a move north of the border. His first also came from long-range, but from open play in a 4-1 victory over St Mirren earlier this month.

Clarkson’s goals and performances have been catching the eye of Liverpool fans. And Aberdeen boss Jim Goodwin has reserved special praise for the youngster.
Goodwin has explained why Clarkson has thrived since moving to Scotland. The Aberdeen boss then had a message for Clarkson, telling him what he needs to do in order to be a success at Liverpool.
“Leighton is a quality player who technically is absolutely fantastic,” Goodwin told the Press and Journal .
“That free-kick was a real bit of quality. You need that bit of individual brilliance sometimes.
“When you sign those quality of players, you hope you have a match winner. Technically, we know exactly what we’re going to get.
“Physically, he needs to bulk up a little bit if he’s going to go back to Liverpool and play in the Premier League.
“Leighton is very brave on the ball, he takes it in tight areas and looks to play forward.
“That is something we want from our midfield players. More forward runs and forward passes.”
