Markovic is another young player finding it hard to see his way on the pitch this season. He was bought from Benfica for a huge 19.8 million GBP. While Markovic struggled early on this season, he is starting to show his talent.
Lazar has been a nice revelation for Brendan Rodgers. The Serbian national has been impressive in the last 3 matches. Even netting his first goal against Bournemouth last week. Like Can, Markovic will be another player who will benefit from the Europa League.
Brendan Rodgers should continue to give Markovic starts. The 20 year old winger has shown he is fearless when he takes the pitch. Markovic will continue to improve and could be another breakthrough player for the Reds.
