"BR has not made a brave decision. He fields the youngsters because he is forced to because the squad is so thin. We lot 4 goalscorers go in the summer in Carroll, Kuyt, Maxi, Bellamy and they have not been replaced. So he has no choice but to field the youngsters."
"It's also essential to hold on to our stars and the only player that is getting us goals i.e Suarez,....are FSG going to sell him in January when the "rich clubs" bid £40 to £50 million for him, without him we would be bottom of the league."
"It wasn't a brave decision by BR to play the youths. He is forced to as the squad is so thin. We let 4 goalscorers leave in the summer Carroll, Kuyt, Maxi, Bellamy and they have not been replaced, so he doesn't have much of a choice."
"Wise words Carra! The way which BR relied on is clear, point on the youngsters and make possible that the most of them break through the first team... Sterling, Wisdom, Suso, Coady, Morgan and Yesil are just the first, for me Teixeira and Adorjan are the next, believe me! YNWA Carra"
"Arhat - Let's be honest based on what we have seen it would be a braver decision to play 20m Downing. But the main issue for me is losing 4 key attackers in Kuyt, Carrol, Maxi and Bellamy and now we are crying about it because we have no strikers. I mean duh what did they expect. "
"Cant blame rogders for putin the youngsters in fsg need to get there finger out & spend in jan & i mean spend other wise we will lose senior players in the summer "
"sterling, suso cannot be worse than Downings last season 0g+0a :))
kuyt, maxi, bellamy - wanted to leave...caroll wanted regural footbal...probably one transfer fall in last day-s... "
"You cant let four players go and brng in 2 and expect the youngsters to fill there boots fsg put your money were your mouth is were these so called 16 multimillionares "
"I enjoy our football this season far more than last two-three...poor referee decisions cost us 5-6 pts and we could be higher, but if you look on next 10 fixtures with little luck we can be 4th in january."
"As we all know football is about small margins. If we had taken the points against both Manchester teams as we fully deserved we would all be heralding the genius of BR and the board. It does take a rocket scientist so see that we are not too far away. I see folks like Perry not understanding that by ridding us of the inneffective players, cont..."
"and buying two note-worthy additions whilst promoting the kids, we have a far better team than last season. Allen and Assaidi are streets ahead of all the misfits. And Sterling and Suso has made LFC much more appealing with Suarez never looking better, cont... "
"Yes I expect the owners to back BR and buy some much needed additions, especially a good striker. But, I fully endorse the slow and pragmatic approach and not panic buying or paying over the odds for mediocre players. We are in good hands and we should all pray for BR to succeed ad this is a critical juncture for LFC!"
"I have to agree with Arhat. Our next 10 fixtures in PL are easy, we can get lots of points and be 4th in January, especially if Lucas is coming back. Maxi, Kuyt and Bellamy we're old and overpaid, even very dedicated for the club. it's wise to play youngsters and save money for future stars, let's get them in January and next summer. Bellamy I would have kept."
