Liverpool whizkid Jordon Ibe is determined to prove himself a first teamer this coming season.
The winger impressed last season on-loan with Birmingham City.
"For me personally, I'm trying to get into the first team and hopefully get minutes," he told Liverpoolfc.com. "I'll try to do well in pre-season first and see how it goes.
"I'm still quite young, I'm only 18, so I need to stay grounded, watch the senior players in my position, keep working hard and hopefully I can do well this season.
"I thought I did well in the last game [against Shamrock] and other youngsters did well. It's just about working hard in pre-season and most of all impressing in pre-season and on tour.
"The manager's message was just to take it into the new season. And especially to try to get more goals; working on my finishing is the most important thing."
