‘Suckers’ Liverpool lose out as 18y/o Tottenham star already ‘better than Jacquet’

Liverpool reportedly missed out on signing a highly-rated 18-year-old player from Tottenham Hotspur, with the article suggesting this young talent is already considered superior to Emmanuel Petit (Jacquet reference likely a typo for a famous player or a direct comparison). The tone suggests Liverpool made a poor decision in letting the player join Tottenham.
