KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Kelly and Flano

If I'm not wrong, Kelly used to be a CB and was push out as a make shift RB. Now that Flano is proving to be the next rising star from the academy, it makes sense to start planning for Kelly to fill-in as our backup CB.

With Jack robinson filling in well at LB against walcott, the future certainly looks bright.

Glen must be feeling the heat right now. All of a sudden 2 youngsters have stepped in at RB for us and I dare say performed better than him already!

So it's good for Johnson that he can play well as a LB:-D He just needs to improove crossing with his left foot and we don't need any reinforcement in our defence... (joke;-))

exactly for firdt time since hypia we got a back 4 in the making ; and it cost nothing, if things go well in transfer market in long term lfc could dominate the league again

kelly may mature into a CB but for the next 4/5 years he should be RB flanno is far from being ready to be in the first 11 week in week out. for us to get the best out of flanno and robbo and the couple of other very good youngsters we have we need to use the loan system look at what a few months on loan did for kelly, these youngsters need competitive football so next season we should be loaning out flanno, robbo, coady, sterling, adorjan, suso. not for the entire season but for most of the second half of the season

all the youth players getting loaned out makes no sence realy unless its to a prem team and martin kelly is ready to be a center half now alongside carra plus u say robo anf flano are to young no their not jack wilshere is the prime example if he wasnt risked he wudnt have showed his potential and wudnt be in arsenals starting 11

If you're good enough you're old enough.

Whats happened to Wilson? He would fit into the defence of the future some where?

flanno and robbo are 17? so you want 17 year olds regularly in our back 4? they are talented yeah but they need to learn a lot before we have them as first teamers and on loan is the best place for 'em to learn. jack wilshere is a rubbish comparison he is a very special player already first choice for england, flanno and robbo are not in that league of player. right now kelly should stay were he is unless we really need him at CB, why change something that works really well?

Flano Kelly Wilson Robinson.
I think only Kelly really stands out out of those back 4 but I think with more time and experience we could be looking at a defence like this in the future.

flano is 18 and robo is 18 before the new season not as 1st choice mayb not but for the rest of the season they should play

I don't think they're going to have the choice - we don't have anyone fit enough to start ahead of them.
