Fabian Mrozek (21) has held down the number one spot at Forest Green Rovers since moving on loan from Liverpool.
2 clean sheets in 4 games, the last of which was thanks to this double save last night.
Esdaille (RB) Misciur (GK) Bradshaw (RW) O’Connor (CM)
Kept it U18 + only. Plenty beneath that.
Would’ve been Kone-Doherty before Plymouth.
He only played 5 times for the U23s. He’s actually currently on the books of leixoes in Portugal. Never saw him play, the fact he’s Portuguese and went to wolves suggests to me agents at work

Liverpool U17 beat Nottingham Forest 4-1 in the U17 Premier League Cup this evening. 2023 signing Harvey Owen featured.
Kostas Tsimikas is injured meaning that Liverpool currently have four injured left-backs. Tsimikas, Beck, Chambers, Scanlon.
James Norris has been somewhat of a regular in first-team training. Clae Ewing I wouldn’t expect to be near but he’s really impressing for LFC U18s.
It feels likes it’s been forever: Academy football is back.
Liverpool U18s play Birmingham in the U18 Premier League Cup with The Reds standing a good chance of going through currently sitting second. Havent often got out the group in recent years.
Jayden Danns and Rio Ngumoha in first-team training today.
Danns might have a real chance in the absence of Jota to impress.
Jayden Danns coming back is a massive boost for the academy, in particular Liverpool’s UEFA Youth League run; he adds an extra dimension to what is an already exciting attack.
We could see a front three of Ngumoha, Danns, Kone-Doherty.
Or Ranel Young in too for either winger.
Ben Doak is on top form; one of the best young players in Europe. Arne Slot’s arrival at LFC suggested he had different ideas both of and for Doak than his predecessor, Jurgen Klopp. Doak trained with the U21s. Hopefully there’s plans for LFC integration.

Jayden Danns signs long term deal with adidas until 2029
Liverpool U18 played a friendly during this international break against i2i Academy.
Not sure on score but involved: Prince Cisse, Luca Furnell-Gill, Kareem Ahmed, Lucas Pitt, Joe Bradshaw, Ollie O’Connor, Clae Ewing, Harry Evers and DJ Esdaille.
Aaron Zamor scored for i2i.
He’s a star. My opinion holds no more weight than anyone else but as someone who pays close attention to the academy, in my opinion, Ben Doak is the best player to play in the Liverpool academy since Raheem Sterling
Keyrol Figueroa (18) started for a USA U20 team that beat France 2-1 today.
Yes, international camps don’t work like that particularly at younger age groups. It’s about seeing what players can do, giving fair rotation and a fair crack to put themselves in contention for future important qualifiers and tournaments.
Rio Ngumoha played twice for England U17 over the international break. He started the first of a double-header against Belgium, posing a threat in a 1-1 draw before coming from the bench in a 2-1 defeat today.
Trey Nyoni made a late substitute appearance in England U19s win over Bulgaria marking a first appearance at this level internationally for the #LFC midfielder.
Thanks Grizz, literally me talking over photos at the moment but I’ll get a camera and whatnot soon, I like the idea of growing. Good to see you over here! Will follow your stuff
