Liverpool FC Youth Teams

[Venton]

A long ball out from Lee Jonas and Max Waltman races ahead of the defender and slots it home.

Liverpool 1-0 Newcastle Utd

[Venton]

Frauendorf should have scored there but shoots straight at the keeper. Lots of pressing from us and hunting packs. Having said that every once in a while we get caught on the break and give away chances.

[Venton]

Lovely bit of interplay there, Waltman to Tyler Morton who score from close range. Great goal for the birthday boy. It's now pissing it down.

Liverpool 2-0 Newcastle Utd

They are slipping all over the place out here. Hope our first team injuries don't get any worse today...

Finished 4-1 in the end with goals from Frauendorf and Stewart. I nodded off on the sofa at half time...

How good is that Balazigi (sp?), and what sort of player is he? Heard / read really good things.

He's strong and protects the ball well. Got a bit of pace and seems to go through the gears quickly - gets past people well using his speed. So far as I've seen he's strong on the link up play with a good eye for a pass, has put a couple of people through on goal when I've been watching. Haven't seen him shoot much though so difficult to say on that front.

You've got to be a bit careful at this level as the different physiques can give players a little bit of an example that they lose when they step up to the men's game but he's been good on the eye so far.

Edit: I think it's Baligizi, I've spelled it wrong at least 4 times in this thread!

The first half perhaps

U23s get a great 1-0 win away to Arsenal on Sat gone with Tom Clayton getting the winner...Paul Glatzel makes his return from the ACL injury sustained last year.

Melkamu Frauendorf is gonna be another one to watch too...his movement & anticipation is awesome along with his finishing...some of the staff at the academy are keen on this guy.

The future is bright & red, lads!

The angle for this match is a shocker. Imagine Sammy Lee with Pickford's arms stood in a ditch manning the camera.
