Harry Wilson of Liverpool was doing bits on loan this afternoon.

Liverpool's Daniel Sturridge (R) is congratulated by teammate Harry Wilson after his first goal against Sydney FC during their end-of-season friendly football match at the Olympic Stadium...

Liverpool fans on Twitter are praising Harry Wilson.

The Kirkby academy product scored twice for loan club Bournemouth in their 3-2 defeat away to Tottenham Hotspur this afternoon.

In doing so, the Liverpool loanee, who has now netted six times in the Premier League this season, moved level with Mo Salah in the goalscoring stakes.

The Wales international appears to have a very bright future and here’s how fans of the Anfield club reacted to his heroics:

The good news is that Wilson is only 22 and will get a lot better. The bad news is that there’s crazy competition in Jurgen Klopp’s senior squad at Liverpool.

Wilson is predominantly a right-sided winger and there’s obviously no chance of him playing ahead of Salah on Merseyside for the long term.

That being said, he is five years younger than the Egypt international and could he potentially be his successor?

It’s a big shout, but the more goals he scores, the more of a valid question it is.
