Stewart has only managed 18 minutes of top flight football for Liverpool, but the club's former U23s boss Michael Beale is adamant he can make the step up to regular performer. "He’s a much stronger player in training than you’ve seen from him in games at the moment and he’s had some big games, the Barcelona game. There’s more to come," he said. Beale revealed Liverpool had received offers for Stewart, but insisted he wanted the club's top brass to see him first. He said: "I was adamant he shouldn’t go anywhere until we had put him in front of the manager. It took a little bit of time while. We put him in front of Brendan [Rodgers] and he liked him but he wasn’t ready. "We put him again in front of Jurgen and if the Exeter game [in the FA Cup] doesn’t happen then Kev Stewart doesn’t appear."
