The following is an old thread I created on RAWK and on Koptalk I think. Just stumbled upon it. Thought it would be a good comparison to how it was before Benitez and after.

Youth options?
« on: August 1, 2005, 03:53:17 PM »
(First post for me here, be easy on me. Kind of a regular poster on a another fan site, though.)
A list of prospering youth players:

At least they got Diaby right
Personally I think Matthew Fryatt might be an option. Thank good we stayed away from that train wreck
I noticed something interesting about the England youth internationals.
Well, there are only three Liverpool based players!!!
Carson
Welsh
Peltier
Take in to account that Carson was bought from Leeds.
Oh, why wasn't Peltier part of the league cup team?
I mean if he's good enough for the national team he should be good enough to play with the reserves especially when Raven isn't an England international.
What the h*ll is going on at the academy?

[size=14pt]Current youth status:[/size]
List of capped players and players training with the first team:
Martin Kelly (Whiston) - Already there I guess. Scored in his first game for the U21s.
Jay Spearing (Wallasey) - Don't think he's good enough.
Jonjo Shelvey (Romford, London) - Jury is still out, looks bright, currently in the U19 squad.
Stephen Darby (Liverpool) - Decent player but I think the emergence of Kelly killed his chances.
Steven Irwin (Liverpool) - Haven't seen enough of him
Nathan Eccleston (Newton Heath, Manchester) - Very quick can play on either side of the wing and up front.
Thomas Ince (Stockport, Manchester) - Technically gifted, pacy, left footed. Future looking bright.
David Amoo (London) - Striker/winger, also quick, but he's like a younger version of Djibs.
Jack Robinson (Warrington, Cheshire) - Used to be a regular fixture in the U17, hasn't played there for a while.
Andre Wisdom (Leeds) - Big strong defender, prominent in the u17 Euro win currently playing for the U19s
Michael Ngoo (London) - U19
Conor Coady (Liverpool) - Won the U17 Euro championship together with Wisdom, not selected for U19, U17.
Raheem Sterling (Kingston, Jamaica) - 15 years old and starting for the U17 team. Set up a goal for them recently.
Matthew Regan (Liverpool) - Scored in the recent U17 game assisted Sterling.
Adam Morgan (Liverpool) - U17
A question to the experts on this board, who do you think will progress and play regular first team football?
