Curtis Jones explains why Liverpool captaincy was 'tough' for him

Curtis Jones captained Liverpool in their League Cup victory against Leicester in September.

This was the first time the Scouser captained his home-town side and he admits that it wasn't easy.

"It’s a tough one, if I’m honest, because I’ve always been the younger kid," CuJo said at a press conference, as quoted by the Reds' website.

"But I’m at the point now where there’s kids coming in and I’m kind of having a conversation with them I was having with a Hendo, a Milner and even a Trent. It’s about helping out the kids as well.

"It’s good to have the armband on me and to be captain, but every time at the training ground I always try to be a leader in my own way."
