As a little update, what seems to have happened so far is that he was in 1st training yesterday and watched at Melwood today as an LFC XI beat Morecambe. Not travelling with the matchday party to Stoke then, but very likely involved in some capacity vs Exeter. (the XI was a mish mash of...

Not totally sure on the specifics, but from what I understand, Kent can leave far into March in the Emergency Loan Window. So there's a chance he could act as impact sub in the packed Jan/Feb schedule and then head out again.

should always be room for applauding great achievements, as long as it's not done by a select few teams. Then, silence. :whistle:

:D

The extent of the fatigue that the fans are feeling with established expensive pros like Lallana will give Kent lots of leeway, initially at least. Divock Origi who is only a year older than him went through a tough time at Lille, where the fans turned on him for some time, and got further...

Nah, that was when I was a little kid more interested in playing the game myself and running around on muddy pitches rather than watching the football... Think you got it spot on there, Benteke, Lallana, Allen and Mignolet could be the first ones to get the chop in the summer. The signing of...

A strategic decision that shows few signs of changing, as long as the owners at LFC are who they are and keep on bringing in idealistic managers who see themselves as developers of talent. If FSG sell to some consortium of arab Sheikhs (which have been ongoing speculation for years), that...

We could sit here making cases for/against the "big clubs" all day, coloured by likes and dislikes. With Klopp though, history shows he stayed 11 years at Mainz as a player, 7 years as a manager and 7 years at BVB as a manager. Unless his reign crashes in two-three years, he seems the type to...

With all due respect, one word for this: supposition The past is not the present. The mess of Hodgson, Dalglish and Rodgers does not necessarily carry on with Klopp. And Wenger, change has been in the air for ages now. How long is it before Guardiola or Simone (for example) come in, taking...

Yeah, I´ve seen Jordon Ibe with the U18s absolutely taking the piss in playing a 1 vs 11 game, not passing at all, but he fell into line with a team game quickly enough.. Kent will come into a hierarchy (dysfunctional atm) where Coutinho is expected to be the showrunner.. All sorts of rumours...

At some point I suppose you just have to throw in some of these kids and see if they sink or swim. If the club is short of options and spend money, that new player will be blocking the path of someone else. If you spin it in a positive way, this decision could be a motivating factor for the...

:claping hands: Thanks for the kind words, it´s interesting to interact with fans of other teams because of this whole loan scheme that´s going on across the leagues. For his raw features, I think someone on Red And White Kop hit the jackpot when calling him a Reus light, a Reus mk II. (Not...

Today's bench vs WHU: Bogdan Smith Allen Toure Brannagan Randall Lallana Lallana as the only attacking player, and he's widely criticized for taking too many Cruyff-turns, dawdling on the ball and dragging the tempo down. That bench is utterly shocking. But whether Kent can...

Well, the giant clusterfuck started with not properly replacing Luis Suarez and throwing wads of cash out on a mish mash of players. Then when Sturridge started to miss out on 3 out of every 4 games (or something), that made it all worse. In his last transfer window, Rodgers, scrambling around...

It's not about being cheap and saving a few quid on a player, it's about not rushing things and getting carried away with signing for signing's sake. Say if Leroy Sané is the one Klopp want, but Schalke are adamant that they don't want to sell right now. Then you don't go and spend 10m on an...

Anyways, good luck in chasing that promotion spot, it´s been interesting following Coventry´s games online this season. From the highlights I´ve seen, your lads sure try to play some good football. Will keep an eye out for your results even after Kent has left, wouldn´t mind seeing the two...

(quotes from the Coventry Telegraph) “I’ve got a feeling of mixed emotions,” said Kent, speaking for the last time as a City player. “It’s disappointing to be leaving because I’ve enjoyed it so much at Coventry but I’m also looking forward to the next step in my career. “I’d like to thank...

As a fan of Liverpool, I´d say Kent has a fairly decent chance of becoming (at least!) a squad player if he can impress Klopp going forward. Klopp wants to see himself as a builder and is a bit of a football romantic, and I think he´s enamoured with the idea of unearthing a star from the youth...

And on what you said about 16 January, it´s been said by Chris Bascombe (Telegraph), among others, that it is a recall, and that he´ll be in contention for cup games. That means Stoke, Exeter and Augsburg in the Europa.

In short, Klopp came in from a different cultural background where the kids play in a B side in the league system. He made some early pronouncements on the loan system, and AFTER this, Sergi Canos´ loan has just been extended at Brentford. There is just no way that Klopp can abolish the loans...
