Tom Ince speaks pretty well.

This channel is woeful though...terrible interference with the audio, and ****e picture as usual.

[Drago]

I could tell you what would be going through my mind if she was interviewing me. Scoring would be one way to call it.

i can't believe you lot are wasting time watching a load of black 16 year olds going on 40 making our young english talent look dumb.

Don't want to be too hard on Ince, but today again he showed why he won't make it despite having some decent ability. Terrible final ball/decision-making.

You can be as hard on him as you want mate. He won't sign a new contract so he's off in the summer. Stuff him I say ! :bird:

[BigChief]

To be fair, despite his annoying shoulder shrugging and moaning like Torres, he did track back well and work hard for the team. I really enjoyed watching him for the U18s, but he never developed the finish Pacecho and Suso showed tonight.

And tonight isn't a one off. Every one on one he had with the keeper I hedged my bets on the keeper winning the ball. He's a panicker in the penalty area which is a shame.

Edit: and I finally got to watch my boy Cooper at last. Not looking so good at the moment.

Can't blame him to be honest, never going to break through is he.

Bradford City youth team player Nial Heaton has agreed personal terms on a move to Liverpool. The Pudsey-born 14-year-old central defender is the third City youngster to join Liverpool in recent years. He follows in the footsteps of Calum Pilkington and Andre Wisdom who are both at Anfield.

Pilkington signed for Liverpool last season, but it is Wisdom who is being more closely monitored. His move to Anfield three years ago has helped him develop into an England youth international, and he has now established himself as one of the leading lights of the Reds’ academy.

David Wetherall said: “We have to be realistic about the situation. Part of the success for us is producing players of this quality that benefit the football club financially. We are trying to get ourselves in a situation where we no longer have a real need to sell but it’s difficult to stand in players’ way when clubs such as Liverpool come knocking. Although myself and Pete (Horne) are obviously disappointed that these players won’t be wearing the claret and amber, we’ve a sense of pride that clubs with the quality of Liverpool are interested in them. We’ve got clubs who are interested in other players as well.”

Where is Andre Wisdom though? Haven't seen him in any youth/reserve matches lately...

[Shaggy]

He played for the reserves last night and was excellent.

[Pablo]

Yes, he looks very good doesn't he. Obviously he's a physical beast so he can bully most reserve teams. But he's so quick too and seems to read the game well too. Promising player definitely.

**** my bad...

he was injured though, so... ()

Glad to hear he did well

[BigChief]

Andre Wisdom has the potential to be as good as Smalling (who is actually quite good).

[SB]

Can't blame him to be honest, never going to break through is he.

Obviously the someone at the Club who offered him a contract thinks he can.
