Our guide to future stars - Liverpool FC

 

With several of the club's young hopefuls set to make their Anfield debut on Saturday in the FA Youth Cup fourth round clash with Crystal Palace, here is a closer look at Rodolfo Borrell's talented squad.

 

The class of 2010-11 is arguably the most exciting crop of youngsters for many years, and the club has high hopes for many of those below.

 

Don't forget you can watch the FA Youth Cup tie with Crystal Palace exclusively live on this website with our coverage starting at 11.30am on Saturday.

 

Just remember, you heard their names here first...

 

 

Suso: The Spanish maestro is a regular member of John McMahon's reserve team squad but he is eligible for the FA Youth Cup. He has already played on the famous Anfield turf having featured as a substitute in Jamie Carragher's testimonial against Everton. Jesus Fernandez, or Suso as he likes to be known, is a real talent and was outstanding in the third round 4-0 win at Notts County.

 

Jack Robinson: Liverpool's youngest ever player, Jack Robinson was 16 when he made his first-team debut at Hull City on the final day of last season. Blessed with a good left foot, Robinson will be first choice left-back for the reserves this season. A good competitor, Robinson is certainly one to keep an eye out for.

 

John Flanagan: A right-back who has a great attitude and an ability to read the game, Flanagan times his tackles to perfection and is the type of player you want in your team. He played at Anfield for the first time when he replaced Jamie Carragher in his testimonial game and you wouldn't bet against him playing a lot more games in the future on the hallowed turf.

 

Michael Roberts: A cultured central midfielder who used to be on Tranmere Rovers books, Roberts is a classy player. He made his first start for the reserves at Newcastle this season and was arguably man of the match. He has a great eye for a pass and will be looking to make further progress this season.

 

Toni Silva: The 17-year-old has been a revelation since arriving at the Kirkby Academy. Blessed with a sweet left foot, Silva is a defender's nightmare and is undoubtedly one to watch.

 

Raheem Sterling: Signed from QPR last season, the winger is one of the fastest and most skilful youngsters the Kirkby Academy has seen for a while. Still a scholar, Sterling is certainly one for the future, and he has already appeared in Roy Hodgson's first-team squad this season - against Borussia Moenchengladbach. He also featured in Jamie Carragher's testimonial.

 

Michael Ngoo: The former Southend United youngster is tall in the Peter Crouch mould and a real nuisance for defenders. Ngoo scored on his debut for England U19s this season and has been in terrific form. He scored arguably our goal of the season last term with a Diego Maradona style effort away at Stoke City.

 

Krisztian Adorjan: The talented Hungarian striker signed a professional contract in July that ties him to the club until 2013. Adorjan likes to play as a second striker and has got a great football brain. He has an eye for a pass and can score goals himself. He scored at Anfield last season in the FA Youth Cup tie v Wolves.

 

Conor Coady: Captain of the U18 team, Coady is equally adaptable playing at centre-back or in a holding midfield role. A great competitor, Coady captained England U17s to victory when he played alongside Andre Wisdom during the summer's European Championships. Coady is a class act who has the potential to make a breakthrough and played a big part in the reserves winning two trophies in pre-season - the Liverpool Senior Cup and Lancashire Senior Cup.

 

Andre Wisdom: Sadly he is ruled out of this game through injury but he is hoping to return in further rounds if the team hopefully progress. He might only be 17 but already this season Wisdom has captained England U19s. A giant of a centre-back with an infectious will to win, Wisdom is now a regular member of the reserve side and was given squad number No.47 this season. He played a pivotal role in helping England win the European U17 Championship in the summer of 2010. He scored at both ends as his country landed their first ever success at that level with a 2-1 win over Spain.

 

Jamie Stephens: A goalkeeper that came from Swindon Town, he made his U18s debut this season. A highly rated young stopper, Rodolfo Borrell will rotate his 'keepers this season between Stephens and Tyrell Belford.

 

Tyrell Belford: Like Jamie Stephens, Tyrell Belford comes to the Academy with high hopes. He was snapped up from Coventry City in 2009 and will be a regular in the U18 squad this season. Tyrell has also represented England at U16 level.

 

Stephen Sama: Stephen joined the Academy from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2009 and has gone from strength to strength during his time at Liverpool. The centre-back, who originally hails from Cameroon, is a great competitor and is dominant in the air.

 

Peter Aylmer: The young Scouser is a good prospect and is looking to try and claim a regular starting berth in Rodolfo Borrell's U18 team. He is a versatile player who can play at right-back, centre-back and central midfield. Aylmer can also score spectacular goals as supporters witnessed during pre-season with a rocket of a shot against Exeter.

 

Craig Roddan: A central midfielder who hails from Fazakerley, Roddan has been a regular for the U18s this season. He is a creative player but is also not afraid to get stuck in when the going gets tough. Roddan has a good partnership at U18 level with Conor Coady.

 

Kristjan Gauti Emilsson: Icelandic forward Emilsson had a debut to remember last season for the U18s when he headed home the winner against Manchester United at Carrington. Strong in the air, he has been used mostly as a second striker by Rodolfo Borrell. He has represented his country at U17, U18 and U19 level and joined the Academy from Icelandic outfit HF.

 

Patrik Poor: Patrik is a right back who came to the Academy from Hungary. He is an attacking full back and is a good crosser of the ball. Poor is a key member of Rodolfo Borrell's line-up and will be hoping to make further progress this season.

 

Matty McGiveron: He has a huge long throw in the Rory Delap mould. He is a versatile defender and has played centre back, left back and right back for the U18s this season. McGiveron is a good competitor and a real 100 per cent performer, and he will be looking to push on and try and get a place in the reserve team squad as the season goes on.

 

Adam Morgan: Morgan is new to the U18 squad this season and he has shown already what a key eye for goal he is. He has scored goals galore at junior levels for Liverpool and he impressed during pre-season. Morgan has been a regular member of Rodolfo Borrell's squad this season and is a good player to call upon if you need a goal.

 

Matty Regan: Regan is a dominant centre-back who has done well so far this season at U18 level. He reads the game well and is also a real threat in the opponents' penalty area from set pieces. Regan was signed from Wrexham in 2009 and captained the U16 team last season.

 

Brad Smith: The Australian left-back is said to be one of the quickest players in Kirkby and has made a breakthrough in the U18s team this season. Smith has a good left foot, is strong in the tackle, and loves to get forward.

 

Josh Sumner: Josh is a technically gifted player and he has been a regular member of the U18 squad this season. He can play central midfield and just off the striker, and will be hoping to get more starts as the season goes on.

 

Karl Clair: Supporters will remember him from the FA Youth Cup run when we reached the final in 2009. In many ways he is a manager's dream because he can play so many different positions and not be fussed by it. He is battling his way back from a knee problem but he is a good competitor to have in your side.

 

Henoc Mukendi: Mukendi is a striker who hails from the DR Congo. A first-year scholar with British citizenship, this boy is a real handful. He came to the Academy in 2007 and will look to make further progress at U18 level this season.

 

Tom Walsh: Walsh impressed on the left wing during pre-season and has been a regular member of Rodolfo Borrell's squad so far this season. He has a good left foot and is a talent. Again, he will be looking to push on and gain a regular starting berth at U18 level this season.

 

Lewis Hatch: The young Scouser came off the bench to feature for the reserves against Wrexham in pre-season. A midfield player with a good range of passing, Hatch is hoping to make the breakthrough in the U18 team this season.

 

Joseph Rafferty: A centre-back from Ireland, Rafferty will be hoping to make the breakthrough at U18 level this season. He can also play at right-back and is a promising young player. He was on the bench for the reserves this season away at Sunderland.

 

Adam Hajdu: A technically gifted midfielder with a keen eye for a pass, the Hungarian youngster Adam Hajdu arrived at the Academy in the summer of 2010. He has represented his country at U16, U17 and U18 level, and is equally adept at left-back and is regarded as a player with great vision and creativity.

 

Tom King: An athletic player who is equally comfortable at left back or in central defence, King joined the Academy in the autumn of 2010. The first year scholar was born in Norway but moved to Australia following three years living in England.

Ince is too old. Team will be Belford - Flanagan McGiveron Sama Robinson - Suso Coady Roddan Silva - Adorjan Ngoo. We have also signed a player from Blacburn, Jason Banton, he can play, but don't know if his transfer is official yet. Class player, played for their reserve side since he was 15. Now he's 18.

Raheem Sterling will definitely start unless he's injured.

Raheem ofc. Sorry forgot him. Silva out, Sterling inn. And yes I heard we signed him, obviously also saw some pics on the world wide web with him at Melwood. Don't know why we have signed him, but Andras Simon is released, Brouwer went back to Holland, and Saric is set to leave. And with Eccleston at Melwood, McMahon had to bring a striker. Ngoo is still a place between the u18 and reservesquad, and Adam Morgan is still a 1st year.

Darby is not good enough for this club. That said, our youngsters should go out and play in the Prem on loan. Hate to say it but Slur Alex is a master of this. He got 6m for Fraizer Campbell after a couple of seasons out on loan in the prem. We'd get nowhere near that for Nathan Ecclestone who is at about the same level of Campbell right now. Although to be honest it does help to have loads of your ex-players dotted around the league too.

Why? Paul Ince is right. Much better for Thomas to play in League One, than 1 match every month for Liverpool reserves. Same with Stephen Darby, who just needs to play games. Isn't he 23 this year?

 

Yes conducting negotiations through Sky Sports news is the new Liverpool way?

Fuck both of them off.

Things will always go to hell when a father coaches his son, but Paul is right. Better for Thomas Ince to play a lot of games, but I also see LFC's view. He should sign a new contract first , because i think everyone got high hopes for him. It's actually a win-win situation isn't it? Thomas signs a new contract, and can play the rest of season on loan...
