    Ya, he's gone IMO. I'm sure I saw similar articles about Suso.

    It's a disgrace he didn't get named in the Europa League squad.

    Nearly sure BBC had Tex down in the squad but there you are. Kind of wonder when he's going to get any game time then.

    I wonder do other clubs essentially ruin as many players as we do?
    Do we really though? I think if players are good enough, they will always find a way to have successful careers. I think a big problem with fans of all teams is that they over-rate their kids. When I watch the under 21's - I now basically take the opinion that out of the 11 man team, you may get one player for the senior team (if you're exceptionally lucky, perhaps two players).

    I think we talk too many of our under age kids up to much and they can never live up to that hype.


    Just look back to the summer to just this forum and see the amount of posters on here that didn't mind losing Sterling because Ibe was going to be better then him.

    I think Nemeth was really ruined by injuries with us, really looked very Torres-like for a while though.

    Funnily enough he was the MLS's player of the month a few months back.

    Scored this the other day:

    Is anybody else going to the Web Summit in Dublin next month?

    Just got my ticket today, a couple of the more interesting speakers at it will be Liverpool CEO Ian Ayre and BBC's Ben Smith who does a lot of reporting on Liverpool FC

    Definitely going to try and see both of those

    Worth nowhere near that. You should go, you could probably get Ian Ayre to buy it off you for 20 million.

    Cue comments about how strikers suddenly get the call up when they sign for Liverpool.

    Hopefully that'll mean Sturridge is safe for now.

    Yeah, Sturridge isn't meant to be called up, apparently.

    Those comments from Rodgers about Sturbridge and England seemed odd. I can't imagine the club would want him to go now, they're glorified friendlies at this stage anyway. Nice to see Ings get called up but who hasn't at this stage.

    needs international clearance which takes a few week I think.

    true, but he was asked to go train with the England squad but has opted not to.

    Re Teix, it's looking like Ibe, Lallana & Origi as the front 3 / lone striker with two very advanced midfielders.

    We than have Rossiter, Can & Allen.

    To be fair I imagine we do want to proceed to the later stages so where would Teix get a look in ?

    If he's impressing at Melwood the league cup is the first team platform I reckon where his chance will come or maybe some league game sub appearances.

    If I was Roy (shudder), I think my stance might be something along the lines of "eff off, Tarmac".

    Apparently after talking to Timmy Sherwood is when he made the decision.
    In fairness, Villa probably want to hang onto their player and train with them rather than training elsewhere were they are not controlling the programme.

    We named 21 players in our A list, and could have named 25. We were probably reduced as we didn't have 8 locally trained players, but we had either 6 or 7 so it seems to me that we could have named him in the squad without leaving anyone else out. I'm not 100% on that though. Registration rules are pages 36-38 of this http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/Regulations/uefaorg/Regulations/02/23/69/59/2236959_DOWNLOAD.pdf if anyone cares enough to look. He doesn't qualify as a locally trained player.

    Marcovic should be playing in the EL for us.

    He's getting better experience in Turkey by playing week in and week out rather than a couple of games for us.
