Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is delighted with the progress of Stefan Bajcetic this season.
The midfielder has just been named Liverpool's Player of the Month.
Klopp said, "We judge every game whether he is ready. So far, there are no signs that he isn't okay to play.
"There are long breaks between the games at the moment. How it is with three games, I don't know. We have other games as well. He played exceptional [against Everton], not just because he's 18, but he was exceptional.
"We had senior players not available for a long time; they are options now. Long may it continue.
"Top talent. Super player, he has played well. He has been a joy to work with. The mix of Serbia and Spain is a good one for football.
"He is an intelligent boy. His dad and Thiago's dad played together for Celta Vigo, so Thiago took him under his wing a little bit. He has a great bunch of players around him."
