NewsLoan watch: Seven Liverpool players in weekend action
Read our latest loan watch round-up after seven Liverpool players were in action over the weekend…
Four on-loan Reds played in the Championship: Owen Beck, Ben Doak, Lewis Koumas and Nathaniel Phillips.
Koumas scored his fourth goal for Stoke City to put the Potters ahead against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light, but the hosts hit back to win 2-1.
Beck, however, was on the winning side as he helped Blackburn Rovers to a 1-0 away victory over Hull City.
Doak again impressed for Middlesbrough in their 1-1 draw with Burnley at Turf Moor on Friday night, while Nathaniel Phillips started and finished Derby County’s 2-0 defeat by Leeds United at Elland Road.
In the Austrian Bundesliga, Stefan Bajcetic played 71 minutes of Red Bull Salzburg’s 2-2 home draw with Rapid Vienna while, in the Scottish top flight, Luca Stephenson’s Dundee United drew 1-1 with Kilmarnock.
Speaking to the media last week, Stephenson said of his progress so far this season, “I wanted to come up here and play and I had confidence in myself that I was going to come up here and take the shirt and go and play every week.
“I’m not going to expect to play every single game for the rest of the season. There will be bumps along the road and maybe [a] drop in form.
“I might be out of the team at some stage but at the minute that hasn’t happened yet. So as long as I can keep that going I’ll be more than happy.”
Finally, Rhys Williams and Morecambe were beaten 3-0 by Grimsby Town in League Two.
