How many did klopp bring through last 2 years out of interest?
You know the answer to that.
You can see what he's done over time and with infinite patience (and a 5th place disaster season).
When klopp arrived he pushed gomez on and brought trent in and gave them both time at rb. He had more scope to do this as the squad was not stacked.
Klopp gave kelleher chance after chance as well.
Klopps also worked real hard to get harvey Elliott time.and games..probably too the detriment of the team level at times.
He pushed jones very much as well despite the lad being written off time and again. Because he pushed those last when we did have the drop off they saved his arse.
The season before last klopp pushed bajcetic as the seniors were on their last legs and debuted clark and doak. He tried carvalho and decided to get shut.
Last year he obviously has more.scope as he did have a total disaster the year before and only had Europa. However he found far more scope to bring in more and more and more kids to give games to and gave far more debuts than people have seen in any other season, because he knew he was going anyway.
Klopp have chance after chance to those who were there to put their hand up
This comes to my point exactly. It only takes a k ock to derail kids careers. Throwing them all into men's football is like throwing them to the sharks. If our strategy is now sink or swim then most will sink as they need time and patience and games but some manager in the championship won't give it when their neck is on the line.
Ben Woodburn was a decent little player, a typically classic lfc youth with not huge physicality but a nice touch. Sent on loan and had his jaw broken by a prick sending a message game 1. The lad never recovered.
Morton did enough to get by and broke a metatarsel at Blackburn. Honestly I thought him too slow to make it.
My point is I know most of these boys are precisely that, boys. They are not really ready for men's level football week in and were out. Players like McConnell need more time and patience but will get eaten alive.
Throwing all these guys out on loan even when 2 in particular are only back from growing pain type injuries is really risky imo. If you've not the patience to put them on your own park and carry them.
if you have no patience then in 2 years time don't be shocked you don't have the players to call on When you need them.
