He has had a couple of really serious hamstring injuries.“And I know, when Owen is back, he is going to be a really top performer for the team and a really important part of the squad.“So, it’s important that we don’t rush him, but we do want Owen to come back fully confident and I’m sure he will be.”Owen Beck must take this opportunity with both hands if he wants a future at LiverpoolAlthough Beck has spent the last few seasons out on loan, it’s clear that Liverpool think he has a bright future ahead of him.
