KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Blackpool looking for THREE players on loan

All those players you mentioned were exceptional as youngsters, aside from maybe Carra, who had to work his way into the fold, and play in a number of different positions before establishing himself in his favoured position. For every player you can mention who it worked for, there are 100 who it didn't work for. Most of those you mentioned broke into the team at a convenient time when there was a place in their position becoming available. What players did the ones you mentioned oust out of the team? Look at the players ahead of Shelvey that he'd have to oust. These are different times.

I wouldn't say he's exceptional for his age - not in the same way those other players were at the same age, to be fair. I think he'll be a top player, and really like him. I just think it could be better for him to get a full year of playing every week under his belt. I hear your points though. At the end of the day, we're just fans looking in from the outside, and i trust that whatever Kenny decides will be the best for Shelvey.

Shelvey's had enough 1st team experience whilst at charlton. I think whats more important for his progression now is to be involved with the 1st team. Training with the likes of Gerrard & Carr on daily basis and being involved in matches days is going to help.

you both have a point, i personally think a loan to a prem club would be better. the quality of the oposition is so much higher than the Championship. Norwich, QPR or Bolton would be perfect for him. Wiltshire grew dramatically at Bolton.

I'm sure they'd be one or two premier league clubs who'd be more than happy to have him for a season. Same with Pacheco. We've seen Arsenal, Man Ure & Chelsea loaning players to Premiership clubs in recent years, don't know why we don't do it.
